This page is for commercial clients in Herne Bay who need LVT fitted to their specific brief.
Why Herne Bay chooses us for LVT
Herne Bay is a seaside town with a mix of period seafront and inland family estates; we work across Greenhill, Beltinge, Studd Hill and out towards Whitstable on a regular cycle. Commercial flooring is a procurement decision, not a retail one. Spec, programme, RAMS, sign-off — all of it needs to be tight. For commercial client jobs in Herne Bay, our spec leans on what actually survives the use — across Beltinge and the wider CT6 area, we've fitted hundreds of jobs that match this profile.
What makes Herne Bay LVT jobs different
Herne Bay's property mix — Edwardian seafront homes, post-war bungalows, modern Greenhill estates and modern Greenhill estates — sets the LVT brief before we even quote. In Greenhill we tend to lift onto bitumen-bedded chip; around Beltinge the subfloor is more often screed with the occasional access hatch to plan around. A seaside town with a mix of period seafront and inland family estates, which is why LVT spec here is rarely one-size-fits-all.
Access-wise, Herne Bay works well for us: 5 miles from Whitstable, off the A291 corridor, with our vans running past Herne Bay High Street most weeks and Herne Bay High Street on the commercial rota. That matters for specified for your sector jobs — we can drop samples, run a re-measure, or bring an extra length of lvt the same day.
commercial client jobs across Herne Bay — from Greenhill through to Broomfield — get a LVT recommendation tuned to lifecycle, not just first-cost. We've delivered that repeatedly around Herne Bay High Street.
Sub-floor stories vary block-by-block in Herne Bay. Around Greenhill the older edwardian seafront homes tend to sit on suspended timber with bitumen felt underneath, so lifting existing lvt usually means scraping and re-boarding a section before the new lay. Newer plots off A299 Thanet Way are more forgiving — a moisture reading, a screed skim, and we're on with the lvt.
Access for LVT in Herne Bay is rarely the same twice: parking near Greenhill can mean a permit, the run in from Whitstable adds 10 minutes at peak, and lifts in the flats around Herne Bay High Street need booking. We handle the logistics; you don't have to.
From the Herne Bay High Street end of Herne Bay out to Broomfield and the Margate boundary, our lvt work here is week-in, week-out — not a one-off drive-out. That's why the price and the process stay consistent.

LVT questions from Herne Bay customers
Can you work out-of-hours in Herne Bay?
Yes — most Herne Bay commercial fits are done evenings, weekends or overnight so trading isn't disrupted.
Is LVT suitable over underfloor heating?
Yes — every brand we stock is UFH compatible up to 27°C surface temperature. We commission the heating, take readings before fitting, and ramp it back up gradually after the glue has cured. We do this regularly on new builds across Herne Bay.
Will you supply slip-test and fire certificates?
Yes — manufacturer test certificates plus our own installation sign-off are included for every commercial or compliance-relevant fit.
Do you carry public liability and produce RAMS?
Yes — £5m public liability, RAMS and method statements supplied for every commercial job before we step on site.
Will the joins be visible?
With glue-down LVT laid by our team the joins are tight, scribed and almost invisible once finished — that's the difference between warehouse-cut planks and a proper fit.
In summary
