New Eltham living rooms — fitted with Karndean

From £58/m² supplied & fitted

The living room in a 1930s bay-fronted semi sees more traffic than people think, and SE9 is no different. We fit Karndean 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, Karndean goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. Karndean works well in a living room — we've fitted it in plenty of New Eltham homes.

Original pine boards over joists — same story as neighbouring Sidcup, so ply overlay before LVT is the norm.

New Eltham · Living Room FAQs

Karndean in a New Eltham living room — common questions

Is Karndean suitable for a living room in New Eltham?

Yes — plenty of New Eltham homes have Karndean in the living room. We'll survey first to make sure it suits your subfloor.

How long does the living room fit take?

A typical New Eltham 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.

Will Karndean work over the existing subfloor in a 1930s bay-fronted semi?

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.

Do you supply the Karndean or can we?

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