Frequently Asked Questions About Flooring Installation

What is the best flooring for a kitchen?

LVT (luxury vinyl tile) is the most popular choice for kitchens — waterproof, warm, durable, and available in wood and stone effects. Ceramic or porcelain tiles are also excellent.

How much does floor fitting cost?

Labour costs approximately £10–£30 per m² depending on material type. A 20m² room would cost £200–£600 in labour. Add material costs on top.

Can hardwood floors be installed over underfloor heating?

Engineered hardwood floors are compatible with underfloor heating. Solid hardwood is not recommended. LVT is the most compatible with underfloor heating systems.
