to Torquay & Devon

Purpose-built blocks account for nearly twice as many Torquay homes as flats carved out of a villa, so the base under a TQ1 or TQ2 flat has to be established rather than assumed to be villa joists. Find out what the block was built on, then specify. Guessing that costs a floor.

Semi-detached, terraced and detached houses take roughly equal shares of Torquay’s stock, and private renting is unusually high on top of that. Much of the Victorian and Edwardian villa stock across TQ1 and TQ2 was subdivided long ago, so in a flat the floor you lay is the ceiling of the home below.

Impact sound comes first in a conversion, so an acoustic underlay beneath LVT Vinyl Click-Lock or laminate does more here than the choice of species. Where a home changes occupants often, you are buying the wear layer rather than the look.

Local conditions

A divided villa in Ellacombe heats by the week: one flat warm, the one beneath it shut and cold. Across TQ1, treat that floor as a boundary rather than a surface.

LVT Vinyl

LVT Vinyl Click-Lock

Where a let turns over quickly, a resilient wear layer that wipes clean between occupants counts for more than grain, and private renting in Torbay is high.

Laminate

Laminate Flooring

Laminate over an acoustic underlay covers a lot of ground in the subdivided flats: modest cost per room, and no great loss when it is changed.

    Flats made out of divided villas

    Torquay flats are largely Victorian and Edwardian villas cut into pieces, so the joists beneath them were laid when the building was one household. What happens on the upper floor arrives in the room underneath, which is why the underlay gets chosen before the engineered wood that sits on it.

    Rooms that change hands by the week

    Private renting in Torquay runs higher than almost anywhere we deliver to, the resort holiday lets add a turnover on top of that, and social housing barely features. In stock like that the wear layer decides everything and the species decides nothing, which means LVT.

    Kitchens in a let

    A holiday flat kitchen meets more different people in one season than a family kitchen meets in a decade, and none of them are careful with it. SPC takes dragged chairs and case wheels without denting, and it can be cleaned hard between guests.

    Houses at Shiphay and Cockington

    Away from the converted flats, Torquay has ordinary family housing at Shiphay, Cockington with Chelston and Barton with Watcombe, where nobody lives underneath and the floor answers only to the household. That is where engineered oak is worth money a let could not justify.

Local fact sheet

Delivery and local detail in Torquay

Torquay is TQ1 and TQ2 — Tormohun, Ellacombe, Wellswood, St Marychurch, Shiphay, Barton with Watcombe, and Cockington with Chelston. It sits in Torbay, a unitary authority. Two figures stand out: private renting is 26.6%, the second highest we deliver to, while social renting is only 8.3%, the lowest on this list. Torquay is a resort town and a large part of the housing is Victorian and Edwardian villas subdivided into flats and holiday lets. In a converted flat the floor is the ceiling below, so impact sound insulation comes first; and in a property that turns over frequently, the wear layer matters more than the species.

At the 2021 census, 29.8% of households in Torbay lived in a flat, maisonette or apartment and 69.8% in a house or bungalow — 22.6% of all households in a terraced house.

Delivery times and options depend on the delivery postcode. See Delivery & Returns for the applicable estimate.

Questions

Torquay flooring FAQs

Do you deliver flooring to Torquay?

Yes, to every address in TQ1 and TQ2 – Tormohun, Babbacombe, St Marychurch and out to Shiphay. Many Torbay orders land at a property standing empty between occupants, so name a key-holder or letting agent on the order and tell us where a pallet may be left.

Which flooring is best for Torquay homes?

Settle the height before the species. In a divided Tormohun villa the conversion fixed the clearance under the internal doors, so measure there first: where it is thin, laminate or click-lock LVT goes down and an engineered board does not.

Can I order flooring samples to my Torquay address?

Samples reach any Torquay address, and the useful one is often not the flat itself: an owner living out of the bay, or an agent holding keys across TQ1. Put your own address on the sample request and the property's on what follows it.

Where can I buy flooring near me in Torquay?

You do not need a showroom nearby: we deliver to your door in Torquay. 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.

How many samples can I order to Torquay?

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.
