What this work involves
Check flatness, moisture and available height. Flooring affects doors, skirting, stairs and heating. Coordinate these junctions before ordering.
- Substrate and preparation
- Heights and transitions
- Material and use
- Underfloor heating coordination
- Skirting, thresholds and maintenance
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Avoid new internal finishes concealing unresolved substrate defects.
What the drawing needs to explain
Mark intact, damaged and unassessed areas on photographs. Add the old-to-new junction detail with proposed materials and treatment.
How to review the result
Compare completed repairs with the approved sample area. Review junctions and material behaviour; colour difference alone does not determine execution quality.
Cost factors for this service
Removal, repairs, levelling, material and details determine the total.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs, known floor construction and measurements at doors and transitions.
Questions about the work
Can a new floor go over the existing one?
It depends on stability, moisture, adhesion, height and system requirements. Have the substrate assessed first.
