SPC stairs flooring in Beckenham
Fitting SPC in a Beckenham stairs isn't a like-for-like swap — it's the busiest square-metre in any home, so we plan around neat bullnose or square nosings. Most Beckenham homes we visit are edwardian and 1930s semis, and the subfloor beneath the old stairs floor is rarely ready to receive a new one straight away. SPC 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. Edwardian pine boards need ply overlay; 30s semis often have chipboard upstairs.

SPC in a Beckenham stairs — common questions
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 SPC anyway, we'll explain the trade-offs before ordering.
A typical Beckenham stairs 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 Beckenham edwardian and 1930s 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.
Both. We supply and fit as standard (best price, one warranty), but plenty of Beckenham customers ask us to fit SPC they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
