Class B fire rating and Ardingly HMO Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC)
Most Ardingly 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 Ardingly HMO installs — fitting a non-compliant floor puts the licence at risk.
Wear grade for Ardingly HMO tenant turnover
For Ardingly premium HMOs (professional shares, high-rent RH17 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.
