New Eltham kitchens — fitted with Laminate
The kitchen in a 1930s bay-fronted semi sees more traffic than people think, and SE9 is no different. We fit Laminate across New Eltham every month — mostly in 1930s bay-fronted semis with a scattering of post-war infill-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, Laminate goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. Laminate to a kitchen is a specialist install — done carefully it looks brilliant, but it's not the default choice, and we'll be honest about that on the site visit.

Original pine boards over joists — same story as neighbouring Sidcup, so ply overlay before LVT is the norm.
Laminate — click-lock wood-effect boards, typically 8–12mm thick. Best suited to bedrooms, living rooms, offices and rentals on a tighter budget. Warranty: 15–25 year wear warranty depending on range.
- 8mm or 12mm AC4 boards for residential wear
- Fibreboard-backed underlay for footfall reduction
- Beading or scotia to skirting for a clean edge
- Sealed edge around the kickboard and appliances

Both. We supply and fit as standard (best price, one warranty), but plenty of New Eltham customers ask us to fit Laminate they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
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.
