HMO & Rental Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) for Chalkwell Landlords
Every Chalkwell 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 Chalkwell rentals
A Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) floor in a Chalkwell 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 Chalkwell rental floor installs
For edwardian terrace Chalkwell properties we schedule around inventory clerk visits — the floor is photographed on Day 5, the inventory is done on Day 6, and the property lists Day 7.
