Kent · flooring delivered
Engineered Oak Wide Plank, LVT Vinyl Click-Lock and Laminate Flooring: the floors we recommend for Gravesend homes, delivered across Kent with samples at £1.99.
Local flooring specialist
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.
The terraced stock here dates from the years when Gravesend and Northfleet were cement and paper towns, and it comes with suspended timber ground floors above an open void, frequently not level. Semi-detached houses account for a similar share of the town. Preparation decides how the finished floor sits.
Owner-occupation is the majority tenure across DA11 and DA12, which is the argument for spending on the subfloor as well as the surface. Engineered Oak Wide Plank rewards that order of work; laid over an unlevelled timber floor it will look no better than the base beneath it.

Our pick for Gravesend

We deliver across Gravesend and Kent (DA postcodes) from our UK warehouse. Most in-stock orders arrive within a timeframe that depends on the delivery postcode.
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.
Subfloor RequirementsOur picks for Gravesend

Oak carries a semi at Istead Rise or Higham well, but the suspended timber underneath has to be firm and flat before a wide board goes over it.

Water-resistant and shallow, it copes with a base that is not quite flat better than a rigid plank, though a levelled floor still gives the better result.

The cheaper way to cover a whole ground floor, which suits a let in Painters Ash; over an unlevelled void it will flex and click, so prepare first.

See it on the mapLocal fact sheet
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.
“Budget for the base as well as the boards.”
At the 2021 census, 20.2% of households in Gravesham lived in a flat, maisonette or apartment and 79.4% in a house or bungalow — 30.0% of all households in a terraced house.

Yes: Gravesham reaches further than Gravesend does, and so does the round, taking in Singlewell, Cobham and Luddesdown as well as the closer wards. Packs are heavy and come off the van at the kerb, so tell us if the street parks tight.
Settle what still has to be reachable under the boards. A terrace in Rosherville or the Town ward keeps its stopcock and pipe runs in the void, so the floor above wants a click joint: LVT, or engineered oak, rather than a board glued 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.
You do not need a showroom nearby: we deliver to your door in Gravesend. Order samples at £1.99 each, compare colour and finish at home in your own light, then order the floor. Delivery times and options depend on the delivery postcode; the estimate is on our Delivery & Returns page.
Up to 10 samples per order, and up to 2 of any one product, at £1.99 each. Two or three candidates side by side on the floor, in the room’s own light morning and evening, settle a colour faster than any photograph.
