Why Canterbury chooses us for LVT
Working in Canterbury means working off the A28 corridor, with commercial activity around Canterbury Retail Park and family streets across Wincheap and Sturry. Supplying and fitting LVT ourselves in Canterbury means one phone number, one invoice, one warranty. We hold stock at our Medway warehouse, so a Hales Place survey on Monday can turn into a fit by Friday.

Local property notes: LVT in Canterbury (CT1)
LVT in Canterbury lives with the reality of Listed period homes and student lets. Doorway thresholds, staircase widths and radiator pipe positions all vary between Wincheap and Sturry, and that shows up on the survey — we note it so the fit day runs to time, not to guesswork.
We come into Canterbury off the A28, usually via A2, which puts us within ten minutes of Canterbury Retail Park and city-centre lanes. For an supplied and fitted under one roof enquiry that shortens survey turnaround: mornings tend to work for Wincheap and Sturry, afternoons for the Hales Place side of the CT1 postcode.
Because we hold lvt stock at our warehouse and dispatch to Canterbury on our own vehicles, a supply-and-fit brief for a property in Wincheap can go from sample-drop on Monday to fit on Friday.
Sub-floor stories vary block-by-block in Canterbury. Around Wincheap the older listed period 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 A2 are more forgiving — a moisture reading, a screed skim, and we're on with the lvt.
Booking a lvt fit in Canterbury is usually a two-window conversation — a survey slot that suits the property, and a fit slot that respects the street. In Wincheap we tend to hold morning fits; in Sturry afternoons run cleaner because of school-run traffic.
We treat Canterbury as a whole, not a postcode band — Wincheap, Sturry, Blean and the villages towards Ashford all get the same survey standard, the same fitters, and the same aftercare number to call.

LVT questions from Canterbury customers
Will you fit materials I've bought elsewhere?
Occasionally, yes, but we can't warranty product we didn't supply. Most customers find our warehouse prices are better than the retail shelf anyway.
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 Canterbury.
Do you offer herringbone LVT in Canterbury?
Herringbone and chevron LVT is one of our most-requested formats in Canterbury — we fit Karndean, Amtico and Moduleo herringbone with proper border detailing.
Can you fit LVT over my existing floor in Canterbury?
In most Canterbury 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.
Do you supply samples in Canterbury?
Yes — we bring a sample board to your Canterbury address as part of the free survey, plus you can pop into our Gillingham warehouse to see full-sized boards in natural light.
