HMO Flooring — Chigwell, IG7
HMO Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) in Chigwell isn't the same brief as a standard BTL — the tenant density is 2–4× higher, the shared-space wear is concentrated, and the licence-compliance overlay adds a fire-rating requirement most landlords don't check on the fitter's quote.
The commercial spec that suits Chigwell HMO living
HMO wear is 2–4× residential — concentrated in the hallway, kitchen and shared living space. We spec Class 33 (commercial-grade) LVT with 6mm+ wear layer for Chigwell HMOs by default. Survives 5+ years of shared-house use without visible degradation.
