SPC stairs flooring in Mottingham
Fitting SPC in a Mottingham stairs isn't a like-for-like swap — it's the busiest square-metre in any home, so we plan around quiet footfall for the bedrooms above. Most Mottingham homes we visit are 1920s cottage-estate terraces, 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. Cottage estates often have thin chipboard upstairs — checked for deflection before laying laminate or LVT.

SPC in a Mottingham 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 Mottingham 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 Mottingham 1920s cottage-estate 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.
Both. We supply and fit as standard (best price, one warranty), but plenty of Mottingham customers ask us to fit SPC they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
