HMO & Rental Engineered Wood Flooring for Ingatestone Landlords
Every Ingatestone BTL we quote for is priced against the tenancy cycle, not the marketing brochure. Cost-per-year across a 5-year lease is what matters — a £42/m² LVT that lasts 8 years beats a £75/m² engineered floor that needs re-sanding after 3 tenancies.

Why cost-per-year beats upfront cost on Ingatestone rentals
A Engineered Wood Flooring floor in a Ingatestone rental has to be judged on cost-per-tenancy, not cost-per-metre. LVT at £42/m² over 8 years across 3 tenancies = £5.25/m²/tenancy. Engineered oak at £72/m² over 12 years, needing a £18/m² re-sand at year 8 = £6.75/m²/tenancy.
Turnover speed on Ingatestone rental floor installs
