Apartments & Flats in Surbiton — questions

Can you fit around a fitted Surbiton apartment kitchen?

Yes — we scribe boards to the kitchen plinth line and finish with matched beading. Only jobs where the kitchen is being replaced anyway get full floor-under-cabinets install.

Do I need freeholder consent for a Surbiton flat floor replacement?

In most Surbiton leases — yes, if the existing floor is carpet and you're switching to hard flooring. Our acoustic spec sheet is what the freeholder needs to approve. We provide it as part of every Surbiton flat quote.

How thick is a lease-compliant floor build-up in Surbiton?

Typical Surbiton lease-compliant build-up: 22–26mm total (14mm engineered board + 5mm acoustic mat + 3mm underlay + skirting reveal). We plan door clearance on every Surbiton flat survey.

Is engineered wood better than LVT for a Surbiton apartment?

For owner-occupied Surbiton flats — engineered wood usually. For BTL and portfolio Surbiton apartments — LVT often. Both meet acoustic requirements on the right build-up.

How much for an Surbiton 2-bed flat floor?

Typical Surbiton 2-bed apartment (55–75m²) in engineered oak with acoustic build-up: £3,400–£5,600. In LVT: £2,100–£3,400. Both include acoustic spec sheet and lease-compliance paperwork.

Can I glue-down a floor in my Surbiton first-floor flat?

No — over a habitable room below, always floated over acoustic underlay. Glue-down transmits impact sound directly through the structure and fails most Surbiton lease clauses.
