Herringbone LVT for the utility room, New Eltham
You'll find Herringbone LVT in a lot of New Eltham utility rooms these days, and there's a reason: classic herringbone pattern in wood-effect LVT — laid to a chalk-lined centre point. In SE9 1930s bay-fronted semis, the tricky part is usually a hard-wearing surface for cleaning kit, and that's what a proper survey deals with before any material is ordered. We're the A20, so a same-week visit is the norm. Herringbone LVT is one of the strongest choices for a utility room — period hallways, kitchens and open-plan spaces where a real timber herringbone is out of budget.
