Before we quote a subfloor prep job in Greenwich

  • Stair nosings

    Older Greenwich stairs often have shallow treads — we re-cut grippers rather than force a standard kit.

  • Doorway transitions

    Most georgian and victorian period homes doorways here need a bevelled bar rather than a Z-bar to clear the carpet next door.

  • Underlay choice

    8mm crumb is the usual call for Greenwich bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.

Greenwich FAQs

Self-Levelling Screed in Greenwich — common questions

Do all LVT installs need screed in Greenwich?

Most georgian and victorian period homes kitchens and hallways do. We confirm at the visit — sometimes a plywood overlay is the better call instead.

How long until I can walk on it?

4–6 hours typically. LVT can usually be laid the next morning.

Can you screed over old tiles in Greenwich?

Sometimes — we'd need to prime them with a specific bond primer first. Often easier to lift tiles and screed the bare subfloor.

What's the difference between latex screed and traditional sand-cement?

Latex sets in hours and pours flat; sand-cement takes days and needs tamping. For LVT in Greenwich we almost always use latex.
