Hayes utility rooms — fitted with Laminate
The utility room in a 1930s detached home sees more traffic than people think, and BR2 is no different. We fit Laminate across Hayes every month — mostly in 1930s detached homes and post-war infill toward Pickhurst Lane-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, Laminate goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. Laminate to a utility room 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.

Laminate in a Hayes utility room — common questions
Honest answer — it can be done, but it's not the default. For a utility room, we'd normally recommend lvt or karndean. If you want Laminate anyway, we'll explain the trade-offs before ordering.
A typical Hayes 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 Hayes 1930s detached homes 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 Hayes customers ask us to fit Laminate they've bought themselves. We're happy to do that on a per-m² fitting-only rate.
