Thamesmead utility rooms — fitted with Karndean
The utility room in a 1970s peabody estate sees more traffic than people think, and SE28 is no different. We fit Karndean across Thamesmead every month — mostly in 1970s Peabody-era estates transitioning to mid-rise new-builds-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, Karndean goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. Karndean is one of the strongest choices for a utility room — clients who want a genuine Karndean install with a real fitter's warranty.

Karndean in a Thamesmead utility room — common questions
Yes — it's one of the more common choices for a utility room in Thamesmead, and it holds up well against waterproof around the boiler condensate.
A typical Thamesmead utility room 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 Thamesmead 1970s peabody estates 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 Thamesmead customers ask us to fit Karndean they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
