Thamesmead bedrooms — fitted with Engineered wood
The bedroom in a 1970s peabody estate sees more traffic than people think, and SE28 is no different. We fit Engineered wood across Thamesmead every month — mostly in 1970s Peabody-era estates transitioning to mid-rise new-builds-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, Engineered wood goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. Engineered wood is one of the strongest choices for a bedroom — living rooms, dining rooms and hallways where the look of solid oak matters.

Original 70s screed is often uneven — self-levelling latex is almost always needed for LVT.
Engineered wood — genuine hardwood top layer over a plywood or HDF base — oak, walnut, smoked. Best suited to living rooms, dining rooms and hallways where the look of solid oak matters. Warranty: 25 year structural warranty on the plank.

Engineered wood in a Thamesmead bedroom — common questions
Yes — it's one of the more common choices for a bedroom in Thamesmead, and it holds up well against footfall through to the room below.
A typical Thamesmead bedroom 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 Thamesmead 1970s peabody estates 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 Thamesmead customers ask us to fit Engineered wood they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
