Bickley FAQs

Laminate in Bickley — common questions

Can laminate go over the existing floor?
Sometimes — over solid tiles or vinyl, with the right underlay, yes. Over existing carpet, no. We'll check at the site visit.
Laminate vs LVT — which is better?
LVT is waterproof and feels softer underfoot; laminate is cheaper and quicker to fit. For bedrooms and lounges, laminate is excellent value. For kitchens and bathrooms, we recommend LVT.
Will laminate work in a large victorian and edwardian detached?
Yes — we fit laminate into large victorian and edwardian detached, arts & crafts detached, modern gated developments regularly across Bickley. Suspended timber over deep voids — extra noggins added before glue-down LVT.
What's the most popular laminate choice in Bickley?
Restored oak parquet, or premium wool carpet upstairs; large-format LVT in kitchens and utilities. It suits large victorian and edwardian detached particularly well.
