Buy-to-Let Flooring in Kemptown
Flooring a rental in Kemptown (BN2) is part durability spec, part scheduling problem. Our BTL service handles both — surveyor in within 48 hours, written quote the same day, fit slot within the void window.
The materials that work for Kemptown landlords
Stairs and hallways take the worst hit in a rental. We do stair cladding on a per-tread basis (£55–£75/tread fitted) so a single damaged tread gets replaced, not the whole flight.
Rigid-core LVT (4mm minimum, AC5-rated wear layer) for kitchens, bathrooms and entrance halls. Engineered oak with a UV-cured lacquer for living and bedrooms — repairable without a full re-finish. Both survive at least two tenant changes before any meaningful wear shows.
5-day flooring turnarounds for Kemptown landlords
Most Kemptown void-period jobs run Day 1 survey, Day 2 quote, Day 3 deposit & order, Day 4–7 fit. We hold the three commonest rental-spec ranges in stock so material isn't a lead-time problem on BN2 jobs.
We coordinate with your letting agent's check-out report directly — saves a round of forwarding emails and lets us start subfloor prep the day keys come back.

BTL flooring economics in Kemptown
Landlord rates run 8–12% below retail because we order stocked material in volume and don't need to send sample packs. The trade-off is no special-order ranges on BTL work.
Most Kemptown landlords we've worked with for 2+ years see flooring lifecycle costs drop because we re-sand or re-coat rather than rip up — saves 60% versus replacement when the substrate is sound.
