Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) for HMOs & Shared Houses in Westerham
Every Westerham 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 Westerham HMO Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC)
Most Westerham HMO licences (issued by the Sevenoaks 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 Westerham HMO installs — fitting a non-compliant floor puts the licence at risk.
Wear grade for Westerham HMO tenant turnover
For Westerham premium HMOs (professional shares, high-rent TN16 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.

Shared Houses & HMOs in Westerham — questions

- Most Westerham licences require documented fire-rating for communal-area flooring. We include the certificate in every HMO fit — usable directly for licence renewal or new-licence application.
- Do you handle Westerham HMO portfolios?
- Yes — from 3 properties across the year. Fixed rate, batched material supply, coordinated scheduling around licence renewals and EPC/gas-safe visits. Portfolio saving typically 15–20% vs one-off pricing.
- How long does a Westerham 6-bed HMO fit take?
- 5–7 working days for a full re-floor including all bedrooms, kitchen, communal areas and hallways. Room-by-room sequencing keeps some rooms usable throughout.
- How do I protect the HMO Westerham floor between tenancies?

- What warranty applies to a Westerham HMO flooring install?
- 10-year workmanship warranty (same as owner-occupied), plus manufacturer wear warranty (typically 20-year residential / 5-year commercial for LVT). Fire-rating certificate provided separately for licence purposes.

- Class B minimum for most Westerham HMO licences, Class Bfl-s1 for escape routes. Our default HMO spec is Class B-rated, with the certificate included in the quote pack for licence filing.
