Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) for HMOs & Shared Houses in Harold Wood
Every Harold Wood HMO floor we quote is priced against the licence renewal cycle, not the marketing brochure. A £42/m² commercial LVT survives 5+ years of HMO use; a £75/m² engineered oak in the same environment needs a re-coat within 24 months.

Class B fire rating and Harold Wood HMO Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC)
Most Harold Wood HMO licences (issued by the Romford 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 Harold Wood HMO installs — fitting a non-compliant floor puts the licence at risk.
Wear grade for Harold Wood HMO tenant turnover
For Harold Wood premium HMOs (professional shares, high-rent RM3 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.
