Eltham stairss — fitted with LVT
The stairs in a edwardian terrace sees more traffic than people think, and SE9 is no different. We fit LVT across Eltham every month — mostly in Edwardian terraces, 1930s semis, post-war estates and Span modernist housing-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, LVT goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. LVT to a stairs 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.

Honest answer — it can be done, but it's not the default. For a stairs, we'd normally recommend carpet or wool carpet. If you want LVT anyway, we'll explain the trade-offs before ordering.

Sometimes yes, sometimes not — most Eltham 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.
