Lease-safe flooring in Chislehurst (BR7) flats
Every Chislehurst flat install includes a written acoustic build-up spec sheet with manufacturer test data, addressed to the freeholder or managing agent. Handed over on completion day.
Why we float on Chislehurst flat installs
On Chislehurst flats over a habitable room we float every floor — never glue directly to the subfloor. Glued floors transmit impact sound as a rigid drum; floated floors over acoustic underlay attenuate it. This is a rule we don't break in BR7 apartments.

Apartments & Flats in Chislehurst — questions
- How long does a Chislehurst flat floor fit take?
- 3–5 working days for a typical Chislehurst 60–80m² apartment, including acoustic underlay layer-up, board fit, perimeter detail and paperwork.
- Does the Chislehurst building need to be notified?
- Yes, in most Chislehurst leasehold buildings — 14 days' written notice to the managing agent. We provide the template letter as part of every Chislehurst flat quote.
- What acoustic rating do I need for a Chislehurst apartment floor?
- Standard Chislehurst lease minimum is IIC 55 or 60, with STC 55 airborne. Our default build-up tests at IIC 66/STC 58 — comfortably above both.
- Can we do this floor with a neighbour below still in residence in Chislehurst?
- Yes — floated installation is quiet during fit (no drilling into the deck). Neighbour-below courtesy notice is standard courtesy on Chislehurst apartment jobs; we handle the paperwork.
- Can you fit around a fitted Chislehurst 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 Chislehurst flat floor replacement?
- In most Chislehurst 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 Chislehurst flat quote.
