Herringbone LVT bathroom flooring in New Eltham
Fitting Herringbone LVT in a New Eltham bathroom isn't a like-for-like swap — it's a wet, humid, small-footprint room, so we plan around slip resistance on wet feet. Most New Eltham homes we visit are 1930s bay-fronted semis, and the subfloor beneath the old bathroom floor is rarely ready to receive a new one straight away. Herringbone LVT is one of the strongest choices for a bathroom — period hallways, kitchens and open-plan spaces where a real timber herringbone is out of budget. Original pine boards over joists — same story as neighbouring Sidcup, so ply overlay before LVT is the norm.

Herringbone LVT in a New Eltham bathroom — common questions
Yes — it's one of the more common choices for a bathroom in New Eltham, and it holds up well against slip resistance on wet feet.
A typical New Eltham bathroom is one working day for the install, plus a separate morning if subfloor screed is needed. We'll confirm at the site visit.
Sometimes yes, sometimes not — most New Eltham 1930s bay-fronted semis have either original floorboards or a solid screed underneath. We check moisture and level as part of the survey and quote any prep separately.
Both. We supply and fit as standard (best price, one warranty), but plenty of New Eltham customers ask us to fit Herringbone LVT they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
