What subfloor prep in Bromley actually involves
If you're looking for subfloor prep in Bromley, the relevant detail is the housing stock — bickley detached homes — and the subfloor that goes with it. Bickley homes often have deep voids under timber boards — extra noggins before LVT.
Every quality floor starts with a flat, sound subfloor. We lay 6mm or 9mm ply over uneven floorboards and apply self-levelling latex over concrete to give LVT, vinyl and laminate the perfect base to sit on.
We regularly work in Chislehurst (~2.5 mi), Orpington (~4 mi), Eltham (~4 mi) on the same trip — anything within roughly 5 miles of Bromley is part of our standard run.
