Old floors, listed constraints

Suspended timber floors in older Rochester houses often need boards checking and a good underlay to even out the feel. Listed properties can limit what you do to the fabric, but carpet and underlay are usually straightforward changes.

Homeowners, guest houses and lets

Owner occupiers restoring older houses, guest houses near the high street that need smart and cleanable flooring, and landlords with flats in converted buildings.

Rochester is five miles from our Gillingham warehouse, about twelve minutes via the A2. Between the historic centre and the streets running up towards Borstal and the Delce, the housing is older than average for Medway.

Georgian and Victorian property means tall rooms, original stairs and floors that have moved over a century or more. Carpet choices here are as much about the substrate as the pile.

Practical experience with older buildings

Over 40 years working on Medway property, including plenty of period houses. We will tell you honestly when a room needs preparation before carpet goes down.

Over 40 years experience, thousands of carpet and vinyl rolls in stock, open to public and trade, with onsite measuring in most Kent areas.
