Coved safety flooring for Swanley kitchens
A Swanley restaurant needs two floors — one that meets HACCP in the kitchen, one that looks right in the dining room. We fit R11 safety vinyl with welded seams and coved skirting back-of-house, then commercial LVT front-of-house, in the same overnight visit.

60s/70s housing often has solid concrete slabs — quick LVT installs once screeded.

Swanley vinyl — the details that matter

60s/70s housing often has solid concrete slabs — quick LVT installs once screeded.
- Coving
For bathrooms we can cove the vinyl up the wall 100mm to seal the floor properly.
- Subfloor
On older 1960s and 70s estates we overlay with ply before laying vinyl so the boards underneath don't telegraph through.
