Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT & SPC) — Supplied & Fitted in Bromley Central
LVT done well looks identical to wood at arm's length. Done badly, it reads cheap. The prep is the difference. Our LVT crews cover Bromley Central on a regular schedule — BR1 sits about 0 miles from the Bromley hub, just off A21 / A222. Major shopping centre (the Glades).
From £42/m² · 1–2 weeks lead time · 10-year workmanship warranty
Why we recommend LVT here
Bromley Central's apartment conversions make LVT the right tool. Major shopping centre (the Glades), and that shapes the build-up we quote.

Common pitfalls we plan around
Floors that aren't flat enough
LVT telegraphs every bump. We latex-screed to ±2mm over 2m before a single tile goes down.
Cheap 0.3mm wear layers
Anything under 0.55mm wears through in 5 years on a busy floor. We don't quote it.
Click SPC over UFH
SPC over UFH is slow to heat. We recommend glue-down LVT for any UFH spec.
Materials & finish notes
For apartment conversions like much of Bromley Central's Bromley Town pocket, we'd usually spec Moduleo Roots in a wood-effect plank finish.
Karndean Da Vinci is our most-fitted LVT — 0.55mm wear layer, glue-down, 20-year warranty.
Loose-lay LVT is brilliant for retail and office fit-outs — relocatable, tile-by-tile replaceable.

Bromley Central LVT FAQs
- Can vinyl mimic herringbone?
- Yes — and it's gone mainstream. 600×120mm vinyl planks laid herringbone is half the price of wood.
- Can LVT go over underfloor heating?
- Yes — glue-down LVT is excellent over UFH. SPC click is slower to heat; we usually steer clients to LVT.
- How long is the install?
- 7–10 days on most domestic jobs — latex screed cure time is the rate-limiter, not the lay.
- Will it dent under furniture?
- 0.55mm+ wear layer LVT recovers from point loads. Cheaper 0.3mm doesn't — that's the spec line.
- How long does LVT last?
- 15–25 years on a 0.55mm+ wear layer in a domestic setting. Less if you skimp on wear layer.
- Does it scratch?
- Less than wood. Commercial-grade LVT shrugs off pet claws and chair legs better than oiled oak.
- Click SPC vs glue-down LVT — which?
- Click for fast install, removable, uneven subfloors. Glue-down for UFH, premium look, long-life.
