HMO & Rental Engineered Wood Flooring for Rottingdean Landlords
Every Rottingdean 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 Rottingdean rentals
A Engineered Wood Flooring floor in a Rottingdean 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.

Rental & Buy-to-Let in Rottingdean — questions
- What's the most cost-effective floor for a Rottingdean rental?
- Commercial-grade LVT (6mm+ wear layer) at £42–£58/m² fitted. Handles 3+ tenancies with zero degradation, waterproof, and re-fittable in patches if damaged. Standard spec on Rottingdean landlord jobs.
- Is LVT really durable enough for a family Rottingdean rental?
- Commercial-grade LVT (Class 33) is used in schools, offices and hospitals. A family rental in Rottingdean is well within its wear tolerance. Consumer-grade 4mm LVT is not — spec the wear layer specifically.
- What warranty applies on a Rottingdean rental flooring install?
- Same 10-year workmanship warranty as owner-occupied. Manufacturer wear warranty applies (typically 20 years residential, 5 years commercial for LVT).
- How much for a typical Rottingdean 2-bed rental floor?
- Typical Rottingdean 2-bed rental (55–70m²) in commercial-grade LVT: £2,300–£3,600 fitted, cleaned and photographed. In engineered oak: £3,800–£5,500.
