Vinyl floorng in bathroom

Recommended Posts

Now I've got my Brexit rant out of the way onto more mundane things.


I'm on my hands and knees removing some marmoleum. It was a great idea when we had it professionally laid but now long past its sell by date. The ply I put down will come up a treat once I have scraped off the glue and made good.


Planning to put down some old school vinyl which will be cheap and functional and can be easily replaced if we want to upgrade to something more trendy and contemporary. Found out that it is so out of fashion that it is not stocked widely any more. I've used LVT which is great, but not going to do that here.


Anyone views or recommendations and experience they want to share? I expect that I'm looking to small cheaper carpet shops as this is too low taste for the upmarket places. Place in Catford does the stuff for clinics and places where sanitation is important but don't need industrial scale. Mot doing Kardean or similar, or doing wood effect.

Thanks all, Carpetright the OKR stocks a reasonable selection and we are going for that - cheers for the offers of rolls of lino. Then the question is to glue (spray adhesive) or to double side tape.... I hope that this thread is a bit of light relief following everything else going on.... Although not exactly getting a lot of interest.

I can't think why not. It's an absolutely riveting topic :))

    • We could not be happier. Brian and Malachi were wonderful to have around the house while they were working. The result is 5 star and with Brian's direction the route we took was better than what we had planned. We love the look of our house it has totally changed the feel of the property and transformed it into a house we are proud of. Thank you so much for your great work. Not one hitch and felt really taken care of from start to finish. I cannot recommend them enough.
    • I wanted to provide a strong recommendation for Nick Minnes and his team. I came across Nick when someone on our street was moving out shortly after we moved in and posted on our street whatsapp group with their top ten best trades people in which Nick was listed as a handyman+. We had just moved into a house that had been lived in for 40 years by a couple in their late 80s so there was a lot of work to do! Over the last 5 years, we have used Nick on multiple occasions. The definition of handymen+ does not do Nick and his team justice as they do so much more than this. The work they have done includes: A complete new bathroom refurbishment (including re-building a new wall) Completely refurbishing a sitting room (including inserting sound insultation and bespoke cabinetary) Bespoke under stairs storage (after a number of other trades people said it was too difficult) Preparing the house for plastering (removing old wallpaper, filling in cracks) Outside restoration of bricks and cornice Fixing floorboards down Nick is not your normal handymen. He is extremely creative and also great with thinking through colour schemes. I wouldn't hesitate to use Nick and his team again. Everything that they have done for me has been of the highest quality. They are trustworthy, tidy, reliable and honest. I already have a list of other jobs to get them back in for. I would very happily provide a reference for Nick - just like the people did who were leaving our road.  Nick can be contacted on: 07866 267 581. Thanks, Andy
