What vinyl in Thamesmead actually involves

If you're looking for vinyl in Thamesmead, the relevant detail is the housing stock — 1970s peabody estates — and the subfloor that goes with it. Original 70s screed is often uneven — self-levelling latex is almost always needed for LVT.

Sheet vinyl is the most cost-effective waterproof floor on the market. We template tricky rooms (around toilets, units and pipework) and fit with no visible seams wherever possible.

Thamesmead sits between Abbey Wood and Erith, so we frequently combine jobs here with work in Abbey Wood (~1.5 mi) and Erith (~3 mi).

Local detail

Thamesmead vinyl — the details that matter

Sheet seams

Sheet vinyl in a typical Thamesmead kitchen is usually a single drop — no seam, no water-ingress risk.

Subfloor

On older 1970s peabody estates we overlay with ply before laying vinyl so the boards underneath don't telegraph through.

Coving

For bathrooms we can cove the vinyl up the wall 100mm to seal the floor properly.
