Vinyl flooring fitted in Shropshire

Vinyl flooring remains the most practical covering for any room that meets water. It is fully waterproof, warm underfoot, quiet, and it wipes clean in seconds — which is why we fit so much of it in Shropshire kitchens, bathrooms, cloakrooms, utility rooms and porches. Modern cushioned vinyl also comes in convincing wood, tile and stone prints, so practicality no longer means compromising on looks.

The finish depends almost entirely on the floor underneath. We latex-screed hollows, prime dusty concrete and overlay springy timber boards with plywood so that the vinyl sits dead flat and no joint or board line telegraphs through the surface a few months later.

Sheet vinyl is a template job. We scribe around kitchen units, kickboards, pipe centres, WC pans and door frames so the covering runs under and up to them cleanly instead of leaving gaps hidden behind silicone or trim. Where a room is wider than the roll, seams are set out in the least visible line and welded or sealed as needed.

For wet rooms, commercial washrooms and anywhere a specification calls for it, we can fit slip-resistant vinyl with hot-welded seams and coved skirtings — see our safety flooring page for that side of the work.
