Landlord LVT spec across Chatham and ME4.
This page is for landlords in Chatham who need LVT fitted to their specific brief.
Why Chatham chooses us for LVT
Between Chatham Maritime and the residential streets around Walderslade, Chatham (ME4) has a property stock that genuinely shapes our LVT spec here. Cheap re-fits between tenancies cost more in the long run than one proper job. We've seen the maths play out across hundreds of Medway HMOs and BTLs. In Chatham, our LVT spec for landlords is built around it.
Why Chatham customers come back
- In-house fitting team — no subcontractors — we see this most in the ME4 district, particularly St Mary's Island.

LVT in Chatham: the local reality
LVT in Chatham lives with the reality of Victorian terraces and ex-MOD housing. Doorway thresholds, staircase widths and radiator pipe positions all vary between Walderslade and Luton, and that shows up on the survey — we note it so the fit day runs to time, not to guesswork.
We come into Chatham off the A2, usually via A229, and it puts Chatham Maritime and Chatham Maritime on the same run. For an specified for your sector enquiry that shortens survey turnaround: mornings tend to work for Walderslade and Luton, afternoons for the Davis Estate side of the ME4 postcode.
For landlords customers in Chatham, the LVT spec is written around use pattern, not headline price. Void turnaround in Walderslade, wear patterns near Chatham Maritime, and matching to existing runs are the practical constraints we design for.
Chatham's subfloor mix — Victorian terraces and ex-MOD housing on the older streets, screed on the newer ones — means our lvt spec adapts room by room. We survey with a moisture meter, note edge conditions in Walderslade, and photograph anything unusual so nobody's surprised on fit day.
Timing-wise, Chatham works best for us if the survey lands early morning — traffic through Chatham Maritime and along A229 tightens by mid-morning. Delivery for larger lvt runs into Walderslade tends to work on the earlier slot, whereas smaller lifts around Luton are fine any time.
We treat Chatham as a whole, not a postcode band — Walderslade, Luton, Wayfield and the villages towards Maidstone all get the same survey standard, the same fitters, and the same aftercare number to call.

LVT questions from Chatham customers
Can you turn a void around in a week?
On most domestic specs, yes — survey Monday, fit by Friday or sooner if the product is stocked.
Can you fit LVT over my existing floor in Chatham?
In most Chatham homes we lift the old covering, level the subfloor with latex and bond the LVT directly to the prepared surface — this gives the cleanest finish and the longest warranty.
How long does an LVT installation take in Chatham?
A typical 20m² room around Chatham or Walderslade takes one day for prep and one day for the fit. Larger projects are sequenced room by room so you can keep using the property.
What's the right Chatham spec for a BTL?
For a buy-to-let in Chatham we usually recommend a heavy-domestic twist carpet on bedrooms and stairs, with waterproof LVT in kitchens and bathrooms. The aim is one fit, three to five tenancies.
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.
