Laminate for the kitchen, Plumstead
You'll find Laminate in a lot of Plumstead kitchens these days, and there's a reason: click-lock wood-effect boards, typically 8–12mm thick. In SE18 victorian and edwardian terraces, the tricky part is usually matching an existing kickboard line, and that's what a proper survey deals with before any material is ordered. We're the A206, so a same-week visit is the norm. 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.

Laminate in a Plumstead kitchen — common questions
Honest answer — it can be done, but it's not the default. For a kitchen, we'd normally recommend lvt or karndean. If you want Laminate anyway, we'll explain the trade-offs before ordering.
A typical Plumstead kitchen 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 Plumstead victorian and edwardian terraces 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 Plumstead customers ask us to fit Laminate they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
