Materials & finish notes
For Victorian villas like much of Hanover's Hanover & Elm Grove pocket, we'd usually spec Karndean Da Vinci in a mineral-look lvt finish.
Loose-lay LVT is brilliant for retail and office fit-outs — relocatable, tile-by-tile replaceable.
Herringbone LVT is now a genuine alternative to herringbone wood for BTL kitchens — same look, half the price.

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.
Hanover LVT FAQs
- Is LVT waterproof?
- 100%. Karndean and Amtico LVT will handle a burst pipe — the floor stays, the underlay might need to dry.
- Will LVT look cheap?
- Not if you spec Karndean, Amtico or equivalent and lay it on a properly prepped subfloor. The cheapness is in cheap product and skipped prep.
- Can you fit it in a bathroom?
- Yes — and we strongly recommend it over tile for warmth and grip. Fully waterproof joints, silicone perimeter.
- 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.
