Blackfen dining rooms — fitted with Herringbone LVT
The dining room in a 1930s bay-fronted semi sees more traffic than people think, and DA15 is no different. We fit Herringbone LVT across Blackfen every month — mostly in Almost entirely 1930s bay-fronted semis-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, Herringbone LVT goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. Herringbone LVT is one of the strongest choices for a dining room — period hallways, kitchens and open-plan spaces where a real timber herringbone is out of budget.

Herringbone LVT in a Blackfen dining room — common questions
Yes — we cover all of DA15 and the surrounding area. Small dining room fits are welcome; we don't have a minimum job size.
20 year wear warranty on the material, plus our own fitting workmanship guarantee. Everything is confirmed in writing on the quote.
Both. We supply and fit as standard (best price, one warranty), but plenty of Blackfen customers ask us to fit Herringbone LVT they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
Sometimes yes, sometimes not — most Blackfen 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.
