What subfloor prep in Greenwich actually involves
We fit subfloor prep across Greenwich — predominantly Georgian and Victorian period homes within roughly 4 miles of Eltham. Herringbone LVT in Georgian hallways; carpet on the upper-floor bedrooms.
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.
Greenwich sits between Deptford and Blackheath, so we frequently combine jobs here with work in Eltham (~4 mi) and Bromley (~7 mi).
