Apartment Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) — Three Bridges, RH10
Flat Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) in Three Bridges is 60% acoustics, 40% aesthetics. Get the acoustic build-up right and the floor never comes up on a lease renewal or sale. Get it wrong and the freeholder has grounds to require replacement — a rare but real outcome we've seen twice this year.
Floated vs glued on a Three Bridges apartment floor
Perimeter expansion on Three Bridges floated floors is critical — no board can touch the wall or the acoustic performance drops by 4–6dB. We fit a 12mm perimeter gap on every Three Bridges apartment install, hidden by scotia or undercut skirting.

Acoustic compliance on Three Bridges apartment floors
For new build Three Bridges loft conversions and Victorian first-floor flats the joist depth is often shallow and the floor structure inherently louder. We add a resilient batten layer on those jobs — adds £14–£18/m² but hits IIC 68+ on floors that fail without it.

Apartments & Flats in Three Bridges — questions
- Can we do this floor with a neighbour below still in residence in Three Bridges?
- Yes — floated installation is quiet during fit (no drilling into the deck). Neighbour-below courtesy notice is standard courtesy on Three Bridges apartment jobs; we handle the paperwork.
- Can you fit around a fitted Three Bridges 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 Three Bridges flat floor replacement?
- In most Three Bridges 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 Three Bridges flat quote.
- How thick is a lease-compliant floor build-up in Three Bridges?
- Typical Three Bridges lease-compliant build-up: 22–26mm total (14mm engineered board + 5mm acoustic mat + 3mm underlay + skirting reveal). We plan door clearance on every Three Bridges flat survey.
- Is engineered wood better than LVT for a Three Bridges apartment?
- For owner-occupied Three Bridges flats — engineered wood usually. For BTL and portfolio Three Bridges apartments — LVT often. Both meet acoustic requirements on the right build-up.
- How much for an Three Bridges 2-bed flat floor?
- Typical Three Bridges 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.
