Testing subfloor readiness on Bolnore Village new-build projects
On new build Bolnore Village new-builds where the moisture reading fails, we can accelerate drying with dehumidifiers and UFH heating cycles. Adds 7–14 days to the programme; adds zero to the fit warranty risk.
Getting UFH right on a Bolnore Village new-build Herringbone & Parquet Flooring install
UFH commissioning cycle for Bolnore Village new-build floors: 3-day ramp from off to 15°C, 3-day hold, 3-day ramp to 25°C, 3-day hold, 3-day ramp down. Nine days minimum. This dries the screed evenly and shakes out any residual moisture before the floor arrives.

New-Build Homes in Bolnore Village — questions
- Can I fit Herringbone & Parquet Flooring directly over the developer's UFH in Bolnore Village?
- Yes — with a commissioning cycle before and after fit, a thermally-conductive underlay, and a max 20mm total build-up. We handle all three on Bolnore Village new-build installs.
- Can you fit floors before the developer completes the Bolnore Village kitchen?
- Ideal sequencing on Bolnore Village new-builds is: screed cured → floor fit → skirting fit → kitchen install. This puts the floor under the kitchen, adds resale value and avoids kitchen-plinth transitions.
- Can you handle a multi-plot new-build in Bolnore Village?
- Yes — we've worked with volume builders across Bolnore Village and surrounding RH16 developments. Sequential plot delivery, batched supply, coordinated snag response.
- How soon after a Bolnore Village new-build completes can I fit Herringbone & Parquet Flooring?
- Only after screed CM moisture is under 1.8% (wood) or 4% (LVT). Typical Bolnore Village new-build screeds take 7–10 weeks from pour to fit-ready — regardless of what the developer's programme says.
- How do I avoid new-build floor gaps in Bolnore Village?
- Correct commissioning cycle (before AND after fit) is 80% of the answer. Board acclimatisation to the specific room humidity is the other 20%. Skip either and you get seasonal gaps every winter.
- How long does a new-build fit take in Bolnore Village?
- 3–7 working days for a typical 3-bed Bolnore Village new-build, plus commissioning cycles. Adjustable to developer programmes on multi-plot sites.
