HMO Flooring — Forge Wood, RH10
HMO Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) in Forge Wood 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.
Surviving multi-let use in Forge Wood shared houses
Kitchen and dishwasher zones on Forge Wood HMOs get silicone-sealed perimeters and waterproof-core LVT — HMO water damage claims are the number-one flooring claim from landlord policies.
