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.
Review reflections and colour surfaces beside large windows when selecting finishes.
What the drawing needs to explain
Draw sightlines from two seats and show shading positions. Review the same layout in daylight and with interior lights on; privacy works differently in those situations.
How to review the result
Check the view at seated height and operate all opening elements. Review whether shading and lighting provide the intended shelter without obstructing everyday circulation.
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.
