Sheet vinyl (cushioned)
One continuous, seamless sheet with a soft cushioned backing. Genuinely waterproof, warm underfoot and the most cost-effective way to change a kitchen or bathroom floor.
Best in: Bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms
Vinyl flooring
Waterproof, wipeable, brilliant
Sheet vinyl and luxury vinyl tile for kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.
Modern vinyl is a world away from the stuff you remember. Realistic wood planks, stone tiles and bold patterns — all completely waterproof and easy to keep clean.
We prepare the subfloor properly, cut around every awkward corner and finish with neat door bars, so the result looks like it was always meant to be there.
Kitchens
Spills, splashes and dropped pans — no problem.
Bathrooms
Fully waterproof and warm underfoot.
Hallways
Patterned tiles that make an entrance.
Pets & kids
Scratch-resistant and quick to wipe down.
Choosing yours
Know your options before you buy
Luxury vinyl tile (LVT)
Individual planks and tiles with deep embossed grain and bevelled edges. From a short distance it is very hard to tell from real wood or stone, but it is fully waterproof.
Best in: Kitchens, hallways and open-plan spaces
Herringbone and parquet layouts
The same LVT planks laid in a herringbone or chevron pattern for a high-end, characterful floor. Takes longer to fit, and it is worth every minute.
Best in: Kitchens and hallways you want to show off
Stone and tile effects
Slate, marble, concrete and traditional patterned tiles — with none of the coldness, grout scrubbing or cracked tiles.
Best in: Bathrooms, porches and period hallways
Click vs glue-down
Click systems float over the subfloor and can be walked on immediately; glue-down gives the flattest, most permanent finish and copes better with underfloor heating and heavy traffic.
Best in: We will recommend based on your subfloor
Safety and slip-resistant vinyl
Textured, slip-rated flooring for wet rooms, bathrooms used by older family members and commercial spaces.
Best in: Wet rooms and accessible bathrooms
How we do it
From first call to finished floor
- 1
Choose your look
Come and see full-size samples in the showroom. Wood, stone, patterned or plain — we will show you how each one behaves in a real room rather than a brochure photo.
- 2
Free measure
Vinyl needs accurate templating around units, pipework and door frames. We measure on site, allow for the pattern repeat and give you a written estimate free of charge.
- 3
Subfloor preparation
This is the part that separates a good vinyl floor from a bad one. We ply, level or screed as needed, because every lump underneath will eventually telegraph through the surface.
- 4
Precision fitting
We scribe around kitchen units, toilets, pipes and awkward corners, heat-weld seams where required, and finish the perimeter properly.
- 5
Trims and door bars
Neat thresholds between rooms are included free, so the join between your new vinyl and the next floor looks deliberate rather than an afterthought.
- 6
Ready to use
Most vinyl floors can be walked on the same day. We will tell you when it is safe to put appliances and heavy furniture back.
Looking after it
- Sweep or vacuum grit regularly — it is the main cause of surface scratching over time.
- Mop with a well-wrung mop and a pH-neutral cleaner; avoid steam mops, which can lift edges and seams.
- Never use abrasive pads, bleach or solvent cleaners on the wear layer.
- Fit felt pads under chair and table legs, and use wide castors on office chairs.
- Wipe spills quickly around the edges — vinyl itself is waterproof, but standing water can creep under the perimeter.
- Use a doormat rather than rubber-backed mats, which can occasionally discolour the surface.
Good to know
Questions we get asked a lot
Is vinyl really waterproof?
Yes. Both sheet vinyl and LVT are unaffected by water, which is why they are the go-to choice for bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms. The subfloor beneath still needs to stay dry, so we always fit and seal edges properly.
Can I put vinyl over my existing floor?
Sometimes. Over a sound, flat, well-stuck floor it can be possible, but tiles, floorboards and uneven surfaces normally need plying or levelling first. We will tell you honestly what your floor needs when we measure.
Does it work with underfloor heating?
Most LVT and vinyl is compatible with underfloor heating up to a maximum surface temperature — usually 27C. Let us know at the estimate stage and we will make sure the product and adhesive are suitable.
How does LVT compare to laminate?
LVT is waterproof, quieter and warmer underfoot; laminate is generally cheaper and has a very hard scratch-resistant surface. For kitchens and bathrooms we would nearly always suggest LVT.
Will the seams show?
Sheet vinyl is usually fitted in one piece in an average room, so there is no seam at all. Where a join is unavoidable we position it in the least visible place and weld or bond it neatly.
How long will it last?
With a good wear layer and sensible care, a quality vinyl floor will comfortably last 15 to 20 years in a domestic setting.
