Room by room · Strood, ME2
Bathroom floor fitting across Strood covering sheet vinyl, safety flooring and click LVT to suit the room.
A wet room takes the demands of ordinary bathroom flooring and adds falls to a drain, meaning the floor build-up and waterproofing layer need planning before any covering is chosen.
Strood lofts converted into extra bedrooms bring restricted headroom and awkward stud walls, which changes how a room gets battened and boarded compared with a ground-floor space of the same size.
Excess adhesive is removed, edges are checked, and the finished floor is cleaned before handover.
Household needs are discussed against PTV ratings to confirm whether standard vinyl or safety flooring suits.
Flooring is scheduled after tiling and first-fix plumbing but before final sanitaryware fixing.
Where a bathroom refit includes a new suite, tiling and flooring together, sequencing matters: flooring is usually best fitted after first-fix plumbing and tiling but before the final sanitaryware is fixed in place, so edges can be properly scribed and sealed.

A flexible silicone sealant is normally used rather than a rigid filler, since it copes better with the slight ongoing movement of the bath or shower tray.
Adhesive and sealant generally need to cure fully before normal use, which is usually explained on the day, and full water exposure is best avoided until sealant has set.
It can, particularly in flats or converted properties where sound transfer to the room below is a consideration, in which case a suitable acoustic-rated underlay is used beneath the covering.
Soft or delaminated chipboard is cut out and replaced, or overlaid with plywood where the damage is limited, since flooring laid straight over a soft spot will eventually show it through.
Older subfloors and loft en-suites both bring their own checks in Strood, which is why a proper survey matters.
