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.”

Everything You Need to Know About Vinyl Flooring Installation
Expert Commercial Flooring Contractors Across London and the South East
Vinyl Flooring Chosen Around Your Space
We install commercial and residential sheet vinyl for homes, offices, schools, healthcare settings, hospitality venues and public buildings. Rather than recommending one solution for every project, we consider foot traffic, moisture exposure, cleaning routines, comfort, appearance and budget. This allows us to identify vinyl flooring suited to the way each room is used and maintained.
Preparation That Protects the Finished Floor
A professionally fitted vinyl floor depends on the condition of the surface beneath it. We assess concrete, screed and timber subfloors for moisture, flatness, strength, movement and contamination. Where required, we can complete repairs, remove adhesive residues, install flooring-grade plywood, apply compatible damp-proof membranes and use suitable smoothing compounds to establish a dependable base for installation.
Precision Fitting and Neat Floor Transitions
Sheet vinyl requires careful planning and accurate cutting, particularly around sanitaryware, kitchen units, pipework, door frames, thresholds and irregular walls. Our experienced installation team measures, positions, trims and bonds each section using product-compatible materials and proven fitting methods. The result is an even, attractive finish with neatly completed edges, joins and transitions into neighbouring floor coverings.
Practical Flooring for Everyday Living
Vinyl flooring provides a comfortable, easy-to-maintain surface for kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms, hallways and other frequently used areas of the home. Available in a wide choice of colours, patterns and contemporary designs, it combines practical performance with visual flexibility. We help homeowners choose flooring that complements their interior while meeting the demands of everyday family life.

Our regional service combines practical flooring knowledge with careful project management, thorough preparation and experienced fitting.

The Complete Supply and Fit Service Behind Every Vinyl Floor
A successful vinyl floor depends on informed product selection, careful preparation and skilled installation.
London Flooring Fitters™ manages the complete supply and fit process, coordinating materials, substrate preparation, installation and handover around your premises and schedule. Every decision is guided by how the room will be used, helping us deliver attractive, practical flooring designed for dependable everyday performance.
Defining What Your New Floor Needs to Achieve
Our consultation begins with accurate measurements and a practical discussion about the space. We consider foot traffic, moisture exposure, furniture, cleaning routines, design preferences, access and available working times. By understanding these requirements before recommending a product, we can propose residential or commercial sheet vinyl suited to the room, its expected use and the overall project budget.
Supplying Vinyl Flooring with Confidence
Our supply and fit service removes the uncertainty of sourcing materials separately. We help you compare suitable vinyl flooring according to construction, durability, comfort, maintenance, colour and design. Quantities are calculated to include appropriate cutting allowances, while adhesives and preparation products are selected as part of the complete flooring system. Materials are checked, stored and acclimatised where required, in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Resolving Subfloor Issues Before Fitting
Sheet vinyl follows the surface beneath it, so defects cannot simply be concealed by the finished covering. We inspect concrete, screed and timber substrates for moisture, flatness, contamination, weakness and movement. Where necessary, preparation may include uplift, residue removal, localised repairs, flooring-grade plywood, a compatible surface damp-proof membrane or suitable smoothing compounds to establish a dependable base for bonding.
Skilled Cutting, Positioning and Secure Bonding
Before adhesive is applied, the vinyl is positioned and planned to achieve practical joins, balanced pattern placement and tidy transitions. Our installation team accurately scribes and cuts around walls, sanitaryware, kitchen units, pipework and door frames. The material is bonded using a product-compatible method, with joins, perimeters, thresholds and adjoining surfaces finished according to the selected flooring and project specification.
A Carefully Checked Floor and Informed Handover
Completion involves more than packing away the tools. We inspect the fitted floor for adhesion, alignment, surface appearance, joins and perimeter detailing. Customers receive clear guidance covering initial access, furniture placement, required adhesive drying or curing times and when routine cleaning can begin. We also explain suitable maintenance procedures, helping protect the new floor’s appearance and performance from day one.

Got Questions? We Have Answers.
Find quick answers to our most common questions about flooring, installation and our services.
How much does vinyl flooring installation cost per m²?
Vinyl flooring costs depend on the product specification, room size, subfloor condition, installation method and amount of detailed cutting required. Uplifting old flooring, removing adhesive, installing flooring-grade plywood, applying a damp-proof membrane or using suitable smoothing compounds will affect the quotation. We survey each project individually and provide a clear, itemised price rather than an unreliable standard rate.
Can sheet vinyl be installed directly over concrete?
Yes, provided the concrete substrate is sound, sufficiently flat, clean and suitable for bonding in accordance with the selected manufacturer’s instructions. Moisture testing should be undertaken where required. If excessive moisture, contamination, cracks or surface irregularities are identified, subfloor preparation may include repairs, a compatible surface damp-proof membrane and flooring-grade smoothing compounds before installation.
Does vinyl flooring need underlay?
Traditional sheet vinyl does not normally require a separate underlay. Instead, it is installed directly onto a properly prepared substrate using the method specified for that particular product. While some cushioned vinyl includes an integrated acoustic or comfort backing, this is built into the flooring itself. Subfloor condition and the manufacturer’s instructions dictate the correct fitting system.
Does sheet vinyl need to be glued down?
Not always. The required fitting method depends on the vinyl product, room size, expected traffic and manufacturer’s instructions. Certain domestic sheet vinyl products can be loose-laid or perimeter-fixed in smaller rooms where permitted by the manufacturer, whereas commercial sheet vinyl and larger installations are generally fully bonded using compatible adhesives to provide secure, dependable installation.
Is vinyl flooring waterproof?
Vinyl flooring is generally resistant to surface water, making it a practical choice for kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms. However, a completed installation should not automatically be described as waterproof because moisture may pass through unsealed joins, perimeters or service penetrations. Continuously wet areas require a specialist flooring system confirmed by the manufacturer as suitable for that environment.
What is the difference between vinyl and linoleum?
Vinyl and linoleum are different flooring materials with distinct characteristics. Vinyl flooring is manufactured primarily from PVC and is available in various sheet constructions, colours and printed designs. Linoleum is typically made from materials including linseed oil, resin, wood flour and a jute backing. Each product has different installation, maintenance and performance requirements.
How long does vinyl flooring installation take?
Installation time varies according to room size, layout complexity, site access and the extent of subfloor preparation required. Depending on the product and site conditions, a straightforward domestic installation onto a prepared substrate may be completed in one day. Moisture treatments, repairs, plywood overlays and smoothing compounds require additional application, drying or curing time before fitting can begin.
How should vinyl flooring be cleaned and maintained?
Remove loose grit, dust and debris regularly, then clean the floor using methods and products recommended by the flooring manufacturer. Avoid aggressive chemicals, excessive water and abrasive equipment unless specifically permitted for the product. Newly installed vinyl should not be wet-cleaned until the adhesive has developed sufficient strength and the manufacturer’s required waiting period has passed.
