What we check first on a Petts Wood laminate job
- Expansion gaps
Click-lock needs a real expansion gap on every wall — covered by skirting or quality beading, never silicone.
- Underlay & DPM
Ground floors in Petts Wood 1930s mock-tudor detached usually need a combined underlay/DPM, not plain foam.
- Stairs
Stair nosings glued and pinned — we don't recommend laminate for narrow Victorian flights.
