Sorry for the dull question but just wondered if anyone has a rubber floor in their kitchen and would they recommend it with kids? We're getting a new kitchen and am struggling over what to do with the floor. I'm fed up of constantly sweeping/hoovering slate tiles and lighter coloured tiles would be even worse I'm assuming. I like the idea of rubber as in it's a soft landing and warm to walk on but I'm worried it will make it look like a Fitness First.

We have rubber on the bathroom floor, I love it, but it has got a few stains & dents now...that said it's been down 10 years!


It's pale yellow with circles on - Dalsouple?? We got tiles as it's quite a small area but would def. Go for one sheet next time as the joins annoy me!! Smallest sheet was twice the size we needed, which was why we didn't do it that way.

I have been designing kitchens for 5 years! Rubber floor is great! Go for it! Choose colour carefully. Go for one sheet if you can so it could be removed easily in few years time if you decide to change it!


Good luck with your project.

If you need any advice just shout!

Have you considered wood? We got oiled oak (extra wide planks) for our kitchen and I love them. Soft and don't show the dirt at all. You re-oil them about once a year or so and they look brand new again (this is very easy...just wash floors once and then go over with oil on a cloth). There is a wood floor place behind Forest Hill that has beautiful wood flooring and good prices. Think it is called Wood 4 Floors.
I'm finding it really hard to visualise what a rubber floor would look like? I've never heard of it. It is like lino? I hate our kitchen floor (old victorian floorboards which we had sanded and stained, but with lots of nails and cracks etc) We were thinking of replacing with stone but so cold!!!

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
