Bexley uneven floor repair
The right answer for a Bexley floor depends on condition, room use and access—not just appearance.

Bexley subfloor prep — the details that matter
- Stair nosings
Older Bexley stairs often have shallow treads — we re-cut grippers rather than force a standard kit.
- Doorway transitions
Most victorian cottages 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 Bexley bedrooms; 10mm PU on stairs to stop bounce.
- Level and movement checked
- Local repair considered before full overlay
- Threshold height planned in advance
- Compatible finish recommended after assessment
