Flooring in Tower Hamlets
In Tower Hamlets we are most often asked for engineered wood and laminate flooring. Flats make up most of the housing: post-war and inter-war council estates across Stepney, Poplar and Bethnal Green, converted warehouses in Wapping and Limehouse, and high-rise apartments on the Isle of Dogs. Houses are fewer, mainly early Georgian terraces in Spitalfields and Victorian terraces in Bow and around Victoria Park.

The surface you touch every day.
A floor is only as good as what is under it. We level, repair and damp-test the subfloor first, then fit the finish with tight joints, clean thresholds and skirting that actually meets the floor.

Works to flats need planning permission for most external changes and usually a licence from the freeholder or managing agent as well. The older terraces in Spitalfields, Bow and Bethnal Green are often listed or in conservation areas.

Do you carry out flooring in Tower Hamlets?
Yes. We work across Tower Hamlets, including Bethnal Green, Bow, Poplar, Stepney and Whitechapel.
Can you lay flooring over underfloor heating?
Yes. Engineered wood, LVT and tile all work well with underfloor heating. Solid wood is not recommended. We check the manufacturer limits for each product.
Do you move furniture and remove the old floor?
Yes. Lifting and disposing of the old floor, moving furniture and trimming doors can all be included in the quote.
How long will it take?
Most rooms are done in one to two days. Herringbone and tiling take longer, and wood needs a few days to acclimatise in the house first.
