Luxury Vinyl Flooring in Cheslyn Hay, Cannock fitted in a Lounge and Dining Room
Bitumen adhesive was the standard adhesive used for floor coverings from the 1930’s to the 2000’s. As a result, in a lot of homes, when you decide to have new flooring, and come to lift the existing flooring you will find a layer of black bitumen adhesive residue on the subfloor. It’s important to ensure that any loose adhesive is removed and then encapsulate the residual bitumen adhesive on the surface of the subfloor by covering it with a levelling compound. That’s what we did when All Floor One was asked to fit new luxury vinyl flooring in Cheslyn Hay, Cannock.
Our clients had decided to have luxury vinyl flooring in Cheslyn Hay, Cannock, in the lounge/dining area of their home, and from the wide range of luxury vinyl tiles to choose from, they opted for J2 Flooring RT16 Grey Driftwood. Before we fitted the new floor covering, we had to prepare the subfloor, which had a layer of existing bitumen based adhesive residue on it. You can see what this looked like from one of the photographs included. To resolve this, we applied FBall StopGap1200 Smoothing Compound. This is the ideal product for covering over old adhesive residues and created a smooth, level surface for us to fit the luxury vinyl flooring in Cheslyn Hay, Cannock.
We fitted the vinyl tiles in straight lay plank design. We cut up to and around the existing fireplace as well as up to the skirting boards that were left in place. You can see in one of the photographs included, how the new floor covering transformed the look of the room, giving it a contemporary feel while combining this with the rustic, natural appeal of wood. As rooms that are used a lot more than others in the home, luxury vinyl flooring is a great choice for a lounge or dining room because it is durable and hardwearing while also being easy to clean. As a luxury vinyl tile fitter in Cheslyn Hay, Cannock, it’s these kinds of factors that we can help advise you on.
