Trusted Flooring Installation Throughout Kent
Kent has an exceptionally varied property landscape. Older houses and rural properties can present different substrate conditions from newly constructed extensions or modern commercial units.
An existing timber floor may require investigation into movement and stability. A concrete screed may need moisture assessment. In a hospitality or care setting, the flooring specification can also depend on cleaning procedures, traffic levels and the intended use of the room.
We review these requirements before undertaking installation and recommend appropriate preparation methods for the chosen floor covering.
Where necessary, our work can include suitable floor repairs, plywood preparation, smoothing compounds, primers and compatible moisture-control systems.

We consider manufacturer guidance and relevant industry standards, including BS 8203 for resilient flooring installations, when planning the work.
Luxury Vinyl Flooring for Kent Homes
Luxury vinyl flooring is a flexible choice for many Kent homes, with timber- and stone-inspired designs available across different product collections.
We install Amtico, Karndean, Polyflor Camaro and other suitable LVT ranges, with the final selection influenced by the room's layout, substrate and practical needs.
Our residential installation services include:
Wood-Effect Luxury Vinyl Planks
Straight-lay and staggered patterns for living spaces, bedrooms, kitchens and suitably prepared adjoining areas.
Herringbone and Parquet-Style Flooring
Decorative layouts that can complement period features or introduce visual interest into a renovated property.
Stone-Effect LVT
Suitable tile finishes for kitchens, utility rooms, bathrooms and other compatible spaces.
Hallways and Entrance Areas
Carefully planned flooring with attention to thresholds, changes in surface level and the expected daily use of the space.
Extensions and Property Refurbishments
Assessment and preparation of differing substrates, including the junction between existing rooms and newly constructed areas.
We plan the laying pattern and substrate work together so that appearance and installation suitability are both considered.
Professional Subfloor Preparation in Kent
The success of an installation can depend on conditions that are not visible once the new flooring is in place.
In older or refurbished properties, floors may have been repaired, altered or covered with several different finishes over time. These conditions require assessment before resilient floor coverings are installed.
Our preparation services include:
Moisture Testing and Assessment
Appropriate assessment of screeds and concrete substrates before specifying adhesives, preparation products and floor coverings.
Surface Cleaning and Remediation
Removal or treatment of suitable surface residues, loose materials and other defects that could affect bond or finish.
Plywood Overlays
Suitable flooring-grade plywood preparation over stable, compatible timber substrates where recommended for the selected flooring system.
Smoothing and Levelling
Use of approved preparation compounds to address surface irregularities on suitable substrates.
Compatible Damp-Proof Membranes
Moisture-control systems may be specified when testing, substrate conditions and manufacturer guidance indicate that they are appropriate.
Localised Refurbishment Repairs
Assessment of damaged areas discovered during the removal of old flooring, fixtures or internal partitions.
Where flooding or water damage has occurred, the source must first be addressed and the substrate confirmed suitable before replacement installation proceeds.
Commercial Flooring Contractors in Kent
Kent businesses and public-facing premises may require flooring that copes with heavy use, routine cleaning or specific slip risks.
We undertake suitable commercial flooring projects for hospitality venues, offices, retail premises, schools, care settings and other organisations.
Our commercial flooring services include:
Slip-Resistant Safety Vinyl
Suitable products from recognised manufacturers such as Altro and Polyflor for environments where risk assessment identifies a need for additional slip resistance.
Commercial Sheet Vinyl
Resilient flooring with appropriate heat-welded joints and coved detailing where required by the specification.
Care and Healthcare Flooring
Suitable resilient products for selected clinical, communal and care environments, with attention to cleaning and finishing requirements.
Education and Public-Facing Spaces
Flooring for appropriate corridors, classrooms, staff areas and other regularly occupied interiors.
Commercial Carpet Tiles
Modular options for offices, meeting areas, administrative spaces and compatible communal environments.
Hospitality and Leisure Flooring
Decorative LVT and suitable resilient systems for selected dining areas, accommodation, back-of-house spaces and service areas.
Phased or Out-of-Hours Fitting
We can discuss work programmes to minimise interference with business operations, subject to access, installation and curing requirements.
Any required slip-resistance classification or hygienic detailing should be established from the specific environment and project specification.

Read Our Google Reviews“Steven fitted Amtico beautifully throughout our kitchen and dining area - not a straightforward job with several alcoves and wonky walls, but we couldn't be happier with the end result. A pleasure to deal with and an honest approach to any challenges. Highly recommended!”
“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.”
“I couldn’t recommend Steven more highly. 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!”
“Absolutely thrilled with the service from London Flooring Fitters! They installed Amtico herringbone flooring throughout my entire ground floor, including full self-levelling, and the results are stunning. The attention to detail was exceptional, and the finish is flawless. The team were professional, friendly, and a pleasure to have around, lovely guys who clearly take pride in their work. 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.”
“Steve did an absolutely awesome job of our hallway and was unbelievably helpful from start to finish. 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.”
“Steven replaced some Amtico floor tiles that were lifting in our kitchen. On his first visit, he found damp underneath and was unable to do the job but made no fuss about the issue. After we had the damp problem fixed, Steven returned and did a great job making good on the concrete floor and replacing the tiles. Thank you!”
“Steven fitted the whole of our flat. Once the floor arrived it was fitted within 10 days. Very caring and great attention to detail. We can't stop looking at it! Once it was finished there were a few little touch ups that were needed and Steven came and sorted them within a few days. Highly recommend!”
“Overall brilliant flooring company. Steve priced the job quickly, at a competitive price and came in on time as discussed. The workmanship was evident in their approach and he made sure the job met his high standard of finish. Highly recommended”
“Looks amazing, will book again! Recommended right products, finished job quick and professional, couldn't look better.”
“We had a tricky remedial project and after searching all over Steven and his team confidently took it on and did a great job for us. They went above and beyond to make sure that it was done in a quick time frame. I would highly recommend London Flooring Fitters, and would gladly use them again.”
“Arrived promptly and did a great job fitting the vinyl. Really happy with the end result and they left everything nice and tidy. Thanks!”
“My kitchen has been transformed and he had the necessary skill and expertise to lay the amtico floor tiles I purchased in an efficient and professional manner. I thoroughly recommend”
“I couldn't recommend London Floor Fitters highly enough I was let down by a well known company and in short notice, at a reasonable price, they were able to help me out. The team are really knowledgable, professional and overall really lovely. They did a fantastic job on my amtico flooring- I'm so happy with the result.”
“Used to lay about 100sq m of Amtico. Did a great job. Took great care with both the laying and keeping the apartment tidy and clean despite all the tools and materials. Good communications. Turned up exactly when they said they would.”
“We had their team come in and level our uneven floor and put new lvt floor down in two of our large community centre halls. Everyone of our users love it and it's made the space into a beautiful useable space again.”
“I had the team come out to repair some flooring after the plumbers repaired a leak. They did a great job levelling the flooring and relaying our LVT, very professional, easy to deal with and the flooring looks good as new! Definitely recommended!”
“Very happy with the service provided, would definitely recommend. Always good to come across a reliable tradesman”
“I wanted to extend an existing amtico floor into a new room. Others I spoke to about doing it were very sceptical about taking it on. But Steve was prepared to have a go and he did a superb job... You can't tell where the original meets the new tile. He is a wonderful craftsman and a perfectionist. A lovely person to work with.”
“Completely satisfied with the work carried out. Problems arose when old flooring was taken up and was dealt with very efficiently which was much appreciated. Would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to have flooring fitted.”
“London flooring fitters fitted a new altro floor in our wet room. They gave good honest advice and were very easy to deal with. Came on time and finished on time. It looks great. A really good experience.”
“Fantastic comms from start to finish, with sound advice along the way! Great fun to deal with and excellent end product, super happy!”
“Steven helped us with some remedial works on our Amtico Flooring! He was very reliable, neat and professional! We are delighted with his works and we won't hesitate to contact him again for more flooring enquiries!”
“Steve and Jack worked extremely hard and ensured the floor was even. They were extremely courteous and helpful. They did an excellent job and I am genuinely happy to recommend this company.”
“Fit Karndean flooring throughout my house and I couldn't of found 2 better qualified fitters in the London area. The quality of work on my new flooring was superb. They both went far and beyond what was originally discussed as they had to fix issues with the sub floor which unfortunately my builder didn't do a great job of. It was great to have 2 fitters who were knowledgeable and experts in there trade work on my flooring, and the end result is superb. I highly recommend London Flooring Fitters. There Customer service levels are excellent and are always happy to help and give advice on what's best for your flooring.”
“We had London flooring round for an initial consultation to help navigate us around some tricky issues and guide us down the right path. After a very helpful meeting and lots of reassurance. We decided that this was the company for us. Very happy with the end product. Very nice people who are clearly work proud of the work they do. Great attention to detail. We wouldn’t have any issues in recommending Steve and his team to complete your flooring projects. Thank you Mark.”
“London Floor Fitters tore up my old tiled floor, repaired the subfloor and layed karndean tiles for me. The work they did was top quality. I would definitely have them back in the future if we needed another floor doing.”
“After a long search to find someone to repair the Polyflor in our kitchen it was a relief to find Steve and Jack who came promptly and did an excellent job - you would never know there had been an issue with it. I thoroughly recommend them.”
“From start to finish, the team was punctual, polite, and professional. The work was completed on time with an excellent finish. Couldn’t be happier.”
“London Flooring Fitters Limited did an excellent job – professional, efficient, and the finish on my floors is flawless. Highly recommended!”
“We contacted Steven as in the property we bought recently we modified our kitchen and we had a square without floor. He's been great, polite and easy going, from booking the appointment to explaining what was going on. We couldn't be happier to have chosen them, and obviously the result. These guys need 7 stars out of 5 if it was down to us. Keep up the brilliant work.”

Got Questions? We Have Answers.
Find quick answers to our most common questions about flooring, installation and our services.
What flooring is suitable for a commercial kitchen?
Selection depends on the actual activities, contaminants, cleaning regime and slip risks. Appropriate safety flooring may be required, with suitable junctions, welded seams or coving where specified.
Can you install safety flooring in a care home or clinic?
We can discuss suitable installation projects in care and healthcare environments. Product selection and finishing details must reflect the intended use, maintenance requirements and relevant project specification.

Depending on the layout and project, phased or out-of-hours installation may be possible. Access, site safety, preparation stages and curing times must be considered.

Yes. We undertake suitable luxury vinyl tile installations, including straight-lay designs, herringbone patterns and decorative residential schemes.
Can you replace flooring after a leak or flood?
We can assess suitable replacement work once the water source is resolved. Substrate condition and moisture levels need to be checked before new floor coverings are installed.
Do you undertake school holiday flooring projects?
We can discuss installation during school holidays and other planned closure periods, subject to project scale, site access and availability.
