Plumstead stairss — fitted with LVT
The stairs in a victorian and edwardian terrace sees more traffic than people think, and SE18 is no different. We fit LVT across Plumstead every month — mostly in Victorian and Edwardian terraces with post-war infill-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.
