Why kitchens fail sooner than any other room
Water at the joint, point-loads under chair castors, and thermal movement from ovens and dishwashers. A Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) floor that ignores any one of those in Crawley Central will fail at the appliance line first, and the fix is always disruptive.

The build-up we recommend for Crawley Central kitchens: DPM where readings need it, acoustic underlay with a moisture barrier, Karndean Da Vinci boards, silicone seal at all wet-appliance perimeters, colour-matched scotia on cabinet plinths.

Kitchen Flooring in Crawley Central — questions
- Are there kitchen floors that suit dogs / kids in Crawley Central?
- For high-abuse Crawley Central kitchens we spec commercial-grade engineered oak or 6.5mm LVT. Both handle claws, spills and thrown Lego without permanent damage.
- Can Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) really handle a working kitchen in Crawley Central?
- Yes, with the right finish grade, a sealed appliance perimeter and a moisture-tested subfloor. In Crawley Central we've been fitting kitchen Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) on this spec for over a decade with zero failure claims on that build-up.
- How long does a kitchen re-floor take in Crawley Central?
- 3–5 working days for a typical Crawley Central kitchen (removal, prep, fit, silicone seal, cure). Longer if we're re-doing the subfloor or if UFH commissioning is part of the job.
- What's the best board width for a Crawley Central kitchen?
- Kitchens in apartment Crawley Central homes work best at 140–180mm. Wider boards read visually flat in narrow galley kitchens; narrower boards look busy against gloss cabinet fronts.
- Does the kitchen need to be out of use during the fit in Crawley Central?
- Yes, for the fit day and 24 hours cure. We can work around a fitted kitchen; you just lose kitchen use for 2 nights.
- Is LVT better than engineered wood for a Crawley Central kitchen?
- Neither is universally better. LVT is fully waterproof, quieter, and 30% cheaper. Engineered wood adds warmth and resale value in apartment homes. For rental Crawley Central kitchens LVT usually wins; for owner-occupied we lean engineered.
