Multi-Occupancy Property Engineered Wood Flooring in Lindfield
In Lindfield we work with a lot of HMO landlords running 3–8 bed shared houses off B2028 / A272. The flooring brief is: survive 12+ months of student- or professional-share use between fits, clean up in one day between tenants, and photograph well for the next room advert.
Class B fire rating and Lindfield HMO Engineered Wood Flooring
Most Lindfield HMO licences (issued by the Haywards Heath council) specify Class B or better fire rating on communal and escape-route flooring. We spec Class B-rated LVT or wood ranges as default on Lindfield HMO installs — fitting a non-compliant floor puts the licence at risk.
Wear grade for Lindfield HMO tenant turnover
For Lindfield premium HMOs (professional shares, high-rent RH16 properties) we can spec commercial-grade engineered oak with Bona Traffic HD — same wear grade, warmer aesthetic. Costs 40% more, and worth it for premium rents.

HMO Engineered Wood Flooring in Lindfield — landlord ROI, tenant durability, licence compliance
Own crew, commercial-grade wear, fire-certified.
A Lindfield HMO floor that ignores fire rating risks the licence; one that ignores commercial-grade wear needs replacing in 24 months. We spec both by default.
