Gravesend · Kent
A conservatory swings between the coldest and the hottest room in the house, and its floor is chosen for that swing: rigid vinyl and porcelain tile stay flat through it, where timber and laminate move. In Gravesend 80% of homes are houses, most of them semi-detached houses (33%), so the questions are the subfloor and the underlay rather than impact sound.
Conservatory in Gravesend
The Gravesham district counts 41,724 households in the 2021 census, and the mix of houses and flats in that count is what decides how a conservatory floor is specified here.
Semi-detached houses are 33% of the Gravesham stock, and the semi's conservatory is the room most often floored in porcelain tile in Gravesend: a stone look that reads as a garden room, cool in summer, and warm enough in winter over underfloor heating. The rigid vinyl is the warmer alternative without heating.
Terraced houses are 30% of the homes in Gravesham, and a conservatory on a terrace in Gravesend is a small lean-to on the back, on a slab poured with the base of the conservatory. That slab is checked for a damp-proof membrane and a dry reading; a rigid-vinyl floor then floats over it and copes with the swing from a cold morning to a hot afternoon.

Delivery detailsA Northfleet or Denton ground floor sits on joists above a void open to outside air, so warmth leaves downwards and the boards read cold underfoot. Underlay thickness and a properly closed perimeter are thermal decisions here, not only acoustic ones.

Local fact sheet
Gravesham in the 2021 census: 41,724 households, 79% houses, 20% flats.
“Budget for the base as well as the boards.”
We deliver to DA11 and DA12 — Northfleet and Springhead, Coldharbour and Perry Street, Painters Ash, Denton, Chalk, and out to Higham and Shorne. Gravesend sits in Gravesham, a Kent district. Ownership was 62.2% at the 2021 census and private renting 19.1%, a little above the national figure. Gravesend and Northfleet were cement and paper towns, and much of the terraced housing dates from that period: suspended timber ground floors, often over a void, frequently not level. The levelling is the part people underestimate, and it is also the part that determines whether the finished floor looks right. Budget for the base as well as the boards.
Better than one home in three across DA11 and DA12 has its floor chosen by a landlord or a housing association rather than by whoever walks on it, and social renting here sits where the previous census left it. That changes the brief: hard-wearing, and replaceable a plank at a time.

Porcelain tile or rigid vinyl, because both stay flat through the temperature swing a conservatory makes. The tile reads as a garden room and is cool underfoot without heating; the vinyl is warmer and floats over the slab. The conservatory guide linked below compares them.
Both move with humidity and temperature, and a conservatory swings more than any other room. They are not the floors for it in this range; the humidity guide explains what the room does to a wood floor.
No, but with it a tile is comfortable in winter. The tiles and the rigid vinyl are listed for it; the screed must be dry and the system commissioned before the floor goes down.
Yes, samples come to any DA11 or DA12 address, and they are best settled while the ply is still going down. Hold one against the skirting in the room's own light; a shade that suits a Pelham front room can look wrong in a back kitchen.
Yes. We deliver across Gravesend and Kent from our UK warehouse, including the DA11 and DA12 postcode districts. Delivery cost and timing depend on the delivery postcode and are shown at checkout, and samples come by post first so the floor can be seen in the room before the full order.
Yes: cut samples are £1.99 each, up to two per product, posted to your Gravesend address. Two or three side by side on the floor, in the room's own light morning and evening, settle the colour faster than any photograph.
