Herringbone LVT living room flooring in Abbey Wood
Fitting Herringbone LVT in a Abbey Wood living room isn't a like-for-like swap — it's the room the family actually uses every day, so we plan around sunlight fade near the bay window. Most Abbey Wood homes we visit are post-2018 new-build apartments, and the subfloor beneath the old living room floor is rarely ready to receive a new one straight away. Herringbone LVT is one of the strongest choices for a living room — period hallways, kitchens and open-plan spaces where a real timber herringbone is out of budget. New-build screed slabs are LVT-ready straight from the developer; council-era boards need ply.

Herringbone LVT in a Abbey Wood living room — common questions
Yes — it's one of the more common choices for a living room in Abbey Wood, and it holds up well against sunlight fade near the bay window.
A typical Abbey Wood living room 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 Abbey Wood post-2018 new-build apartments 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 Abbey Wood customers ask us to fit Herringbone LVT they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
