    Quality Flooring Starts Beneath the Surface

    Trusted Flooring Installation Throughout Essex

    A beautifully finished floor requires more than choosing the right flooring material. The condition of the subfloor, appropriate preparation and correct installation techniques all contribute to the appearance, performance and longevity of your new floor.

    Our experienced flooring installers assess existing concrete, screed and timber substrates before recommending suitable preparation and installation methods.

    Depending on the property's requirements, preparation may include moisture testing, floor-grade plywood, compatible primers, smoothing compounds and damp-proof membrane systems.

    We work in accordance with relevant manufacturer installation requirements and applicable industry guidance, including BS 8203 for resilient floor coverings.

    By identifying potential substrate problems before installation begins, we help minimise the risk of premature flooring defects and provide a reliable foundation for your new flooring.

    Correcting Uneven Floors, Moisture Problems & Substrate Defects

    Professional Subfloor Preparation in Essex

    Even premium flooring products can develop problems when installed over an unsuitable subfloor.

    Uneven surfaces, excessive moisture, movement and poor preparation can contribute to visible imperfections, adhesive failure and premature deterioration.

    At London Flooring Fitters™, we assess the condition of the existing substrate and recommend appropriate preparation before installing your chosen floor covering.

    • Moisture Testing & Assessment

      We assess moisture conditions using appropriate testing equipment and methods to determine whether the substrate is suitable for the proposed flooring system.

    • Floor Smoothing & Levelling Compounds

      Application of compatible smoothing and levelling products to correct surface irregularities and prepare concrete or screed substrates for installation.

    • Damp-Proof Membrane Systems

      Where testing and substrate conditions indicate a requirement, we can specify compatible moisture-control systems in accordance with relevant manufacturer instructions.

    • Localised Floor Repairs

      Repair and preparation of suitable damaged areas, including defects uncovered during refurbishment or removal of existing flooring.

    Our preparation methods are selected according to the condition of the floor and the requirements of the specified products.

    Professional preparation is not an optional extra when the existing substrate is unsuitable. It is an essential part of achieving a successful installation.

    “We recently had new flooring installed in some of our pub kitchen, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the result. From start to finish, the service was absolutely brilliant. The workmanship was of a very high standard, and everything was completed with great attention to detail. He was professional, reliable, and clearly takes pride in his work. The kitchen was left clean and tidy, and the finished floor looks fantastic as well as being perfectly suited for a busy kitchen environment. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for quality flooring and a truly professional job. We’re extremely pleased with the outcome.”

    “Steven and his partner helped us out on short notice last summer after the contractors we'd originally booked had admitted they couldn't actually install Amtico flooring. He did an amazing job, gave valuable advice about the sub-floor, and was available for a minor touch-up and follow-up questions. 7 months later and the floor still looks like new. Will definitely hire him again when we replace more flooring in the house.”

Not only did he fit my floor to an exceptional standard (I’m genuinely thrilled with the result) but he also went above and beyond when I was dealing with issues caused by other, far less reliable contractors. His professionalism, honesty, and expertise were clear from the start. He’s responsive, straightforward, and really knows what he’s talking about. It’s rare to find a tradesperson who combines skill with integrity but he does both effortlessly. He really is a gem, book him!”

They installed Amtico herringbone flooring throughout my entire ground floor, including full self-levelling, and the results are stunning.

Everything was completed on time and to a very high standard. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality flooring and expert fitting.”

He went out of his way to give me advice on what type of flooring to go for, was not afraid to be honest and tell me if something wouldn't look good (this is usually the mark of someone very experienced). He fitted rubber flooring tiles in a really awkwardly shaped hallway and cut everything by hand absolutely beautifully with no seams visible at all. Cannot recommend him enough.”

    Frequently asked questions

    Got Questions? We Have Answers.

    Find quick answers to our most common questions about flooring, installation and our services.

    How much does flooring installation cost in Essex?

    The cost depends on the flooring material, size of the installation area, chosen laying pattern and condition of the existing subfloor.

    Decorative herringbone designs, additional preparation, moisture-control systems and removal of existing coverings can affect the overall cost.

    We provide written quotations based on the specific requirements of your project.

    Do you supply and install Amtico and Karndean flooring?

    Yes. We offer supply-and-fit and suitable installation-only services for Amtico, Karndean and other recognised flooring manufacturers.

    Our experience includes straight-lay planks, herringbone patterns, decorative borders and other specialist LVT installations.

    Can luxury vinyl flooring be installed over existing floor tiles?

    In some circumstances, existing ceramic or porcelain tiles can be prepared for LVT installation.

    The tiles must be sufficiently stable, securely bonded and suitable for the proposed preparation system.

    We assess the existing surface, grout joints, moisture conditions and finished floor heights before recommending whether the tiles can remain in place.

    Can LVT flooring be installed over underfloor heating?

    Many luxury vinyl flooring collections are compatible with suitable underfloor heating systems.

    The exact installation requirements depend on the flooring manufacturer, adhesive system and floor construction.

    We assess the relevant product requirements, including any maximum permitted floor temperatures, before installation.

    How long does flooring installation take?

    Installation times vary depending on the size of the area, selected flooring, subfloor condition and preparation requirements.

    A straightforward single-room installation may be completed relatively quickly, while larger projects or those requiring multiple preparation stages can take longer.

    We discuss anticipated installation timescales when preparing your quotation.

    Do you carry out small flooring repairs?

    We can assess selected flooring repairs, including damaged luxury vinyl tiles, localised substrate problems and suitable remedial installation work.

    Repair feasibility depends on the cause of the damage, condition of the existing floor and availability of compatible replacement materials.

    Do you install flooring in commercial properties?

    Yes. We undertake commercial flooring installations for suitable offices, retail premises, hospitality businesses, healthcare environments, schools and other commercial settings.

    Our services include safety vinyl, sheet flooring, carpet tiles, rubber flooring and specialist subfloor preparation.

    Do you provide a workmanship guarantee?

    Yes. Our lifetime workmanship guarantee applies to qualifying residential installations where the required complete installation process has been undertaken.

    The guarantee is subject to our published terms and conditions, including relevant exclusions and installation requirements.

    Commercial and industrial installations are not covered by the residential lifetime guarantee.
