Looking for new kitchen flooring in Nottingham? We've been fitting kitchen floors across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire for over 15 years. From beautiful tiles to practical vinyl, cosy wood to easy-care laminate - we know kitchen floors inside out.

Our family team treats your kitchen like our own. We don't just lay floors - we make sure they're perfect for how you use your kitchen, how it looks, and how long you need it to last.

Kitchen Flooring Options That Work

Picking the right kitchen floor is a big deal. It needs to handle spills, heavy foot traffic, and look good for years. We've installed hundreds of kitchen floors across Nottingham, from Victorian terraces in The Park to modern flats near the city centre. Here's what works best:

Tile Installation

Tiles are brilliant for kitchens - they last forever and can handle anything. We've fitted ceramic, porcelain and natural stone tiles in kitchens all over Nottingham.

"Michael and the team did our kitchen floor in porcelain tiles last month. They were super careful with everything, even matching the grout to our worktops. Looks amazing!" - Jean, West Bridgford

We can lay tiles in different patterns too:

• Simple grid layouts
• Diagonal patterns
• Herringbone for a bit more style
• Brick patterns that hide unlevel floors
• Decorative borders to make your kitchen special

Luxury Vinyl Flooring (LVT)

LVT flooring is getting really popular in Nottingham kitchens and for good reason. It's:

• Warm underfoot (unlike tiles)
• Waterproof
• Quick to install (we can usually do it in a day)
• Easy to clean
• Comes in loads of styles that look like real wood or stone

We've installed LVT in kitchens all over Nottinghamshire, from family homes in Arnold to busy commercial kitchens in Mansfield.

Laminate Flooring Installation

Laminate flooring gives you a wood look without the price tag. It's:

• Budget-friendly (about half the cost of real wood)
• Really tough against scratches
• Easy to clean
• Simple to replace if damaged
• Available in tons of designs

We've fitted laminate in hundreds of Nottingham kitchens. It's especially good for rental properties and young families.

Wood Floor Installation

Nothing beats the warmth of real wood. We install:

• Solid wood for traditional Nottingham homes
• Engineered wood that handles moisture better
• Parquet for period properties in places like The Park and Mapperley

Wood needs proper fitting by people who know what they're doing. Our team has specific training for wood floor installation and we've fitted wooden floors in some of Nottingham's oldest homes.

Kitchen Interior Fitting Contractor Nottingham

We don't just do floors - we handle all kitchen interior fitting work. This means:

1. We can handle your entire kitchen project from start to finish
2. You don't need to coordinate different tradespeople
3. Everything works together perfectly
4. The timescale is quicker
5. There's one point of contact for any issues

We've been fitting kitchens throughout Nottingham for over 15 years. We know the buildings, the materials, and how to get things done properly.

Floor Preparation Makes All the Difference

Bad floor prep is why most kitchen floors fail. Did you know 90% of flooring problems come from poor subfloor preparation? Here's what we do different:

Professional Subfloor Assessment

Before we lay any flooring, we check what's underneath. Old Nottingham homes often hide surprises - we've found everything from old coal holes to rotten joists under existing floors.

We check for:

• Moisture issues (common in Nottingham's older homes)
• Unevenness
• Structural problems
• Old materials that need removing
• Insulation levels

Floor Leveling Service

Uneven floors are common in Nottingham's older homes. We've worked on floors in The Park area that sloped over 4 cm across a kitchen!

Our floor leveling service includes:

• Liquid screed for minor issues
• Self-leveling compounds
• Plywood overlay for serious problems
• Joist adjustments where needed

Kitchen Subflooring Preparation

The prep we do depends on what flooring you're getting:

• For tiles: We usually install cement board or specialist tile backer
• For laminate: We lay a proper moisture barrier
• For vinyl: We make sure the surface is perfectly smooth
• For wood: We acclimatise the material in your home before fitting

Floor Heating System Installation

Lots of our Nottingham customers ask for underfloor heating these days. We can install:

• Electric mat systems (good for smaller spaces)
• Water-based systems (better for full renovations)
• Retrofit systems that go on top of existing floors

"We were worried about our old kitchen floor being cold in winter. Michael suggested underfloor heating with luxury vinyl on top. It's been brilliant - toasty warm even during that cold snap last winter." - Darrius & Geraldine, Ruddington

Floor Moisture Barrier Installation

Nottingham's older homes can have damp issues. We install proper moisture barriers to stop your new flooring getting damaged.

Our Installation Methods

Different flooring needs different fitting methods. Here's how we handle the main types:

Professional Tile Installation

For kitchen tile installation, we:

1. Create a detailed layout plan (avoiding tiny cuts around edges)
2. Use proper tile adhesive rated for kitchen environments
3. Cut tiles with wet saws for perfect edges
4. Use leveling systems for perfect results
5. Apply the right grout for your lifestyle (standard or epoxy for busy kitchens)

Kitchen Vinyl Flooring Fitting

For vinyl kitchen flooring, including luxury vinyl tiles (LVT):

1. The subfloor has to be PERFECTLY smooth
2. We use the right adhesives for kitchen temperatures
3. We heat-weld joins in sheet vinyl for a waterproof finish
4. For click-system LVT, we leave the right expansion gap
5. We install proper threshold transitions to other rooms

Laminate Flooring Installation

For kitchen laminate flooring installation:

1. We always use moisture-resistant laminate designed for kitchens
2. We install a proper damp-proof membrane
3. The expansion gap is critical (and varies by manufacturer)
4. We use waterproof silicone around edges in wet areas
5. We install special kitchen-rated underlay

Wood Floor Installation

For wood floor installation in kitchens:

1. The wood needs to acclimatise in your house first
2. We use flexible adhesive that allows for natural movement
3. For engineered floors, we often float them over quality underlay
4. We apply multiple coats of sealant for kitchen environments
5. We offer advice on maintenance to keep it looking good

Our Floor Fitters Know Nottingham Homes

Our team has fitted floors in every type of Nottingham property. This local knowledge makes a massive difference:

• Michael has been fitting floors for 20+ years and knows how Victorian homes in The Park area were constructed
• Emma specialises in tiling and has worked on everything from tiny galley kitchens in Lace Market apartments to huge open-plan spaces in West Bridgford
• Josh is our wood flooring expert who's fitted wooden kitchen floors in some of Nottingham's oldest buildings

We understand the quirks of local homes:

• 1930s semi-detached houses in Wollaton often have bitumen on the original floors
• Victorian terraces in Lenton typically have suspended timber floors that need special preparation
• New builds in Gamston sometimes have insufficient drying time before flooring is laid

Real Kitchen Floor Projects in Nottingham

Here are some real kitchen flooring projects we've completed:

LVT Installation for Period Property in Nottingham's Park Estate

We installed:

• High-quality LVT in a parquet pattern
• Underfloor heating system
• New plywood subfloor to create a perfect base
• Bespoke brass threshold strips to match existing features

"We were worried about losing the character of our old kitchen, but the new floor looks amazing. The underfloor heating has made such a difference in winter too." - Richard & Claire, The Park

This new-build property had a large kitchen-diner that needed hard-wearing but stylish flooring.

We installed:

• Large format porcelain tiles in a contemporary grey
• Electric underfloor heating system

The result transformed the space from a generic new-build to something really special.

Common Kitchen Flooring Questions

What's the best flooring for kitchens?

There isn't a single "best" option - it depends on your priorities:

• Most durable: Porcelain tiles
• Best value: Vinyl flooring
• Warmest underfoot: Vinyl or wood
• Most authentic look: Real wood or natural stone
• Easiest maintenance: Luxury vinyl tiles
• Best for underfloor heating: Porcelain tiles

We're happy to talk through the pros and cons for your specific kitchen.

How much does kitchen floor fitting cost in Nottingham?

Prices vary depending on:

• Size of your kitchen
• Type of flooring
• Amount of preparation needed
• Any special features like underfloor heating

As a rough guide for an average 4m x 3m kitchen:

• Vinyl: From £500 fitted
• Laminate: From £700 fitted
• Luxury Vinyl Tiles: From £900 fitted
• Ceramic Tiles: From £1,100 fitted
• Porcelain Tiles: From £1,400 fitted
• Wood: From £1,800 fitted

We'll give you an exact price after seeing your kitchen.

How long does kitchen flooring installation take?

It depends on the type of flooring and size of your kitchen:

• Vinyl: Usually 1 day
• Laminate: 1-2 days
• Luxury Vinyl Tiles: 1-2 days
• Ceramic/Porcelain Tiles: 2-3 days
• Wood: 3-5 days

Some floors like tiles need time for adhesive to dry before grouting, so there might be a day between stages.

Can new kitchen flooring be installed over existing flooring?

Sometimes, but not always. We can install:

• Vinyl over existing vinyl if it's in good condition
• Laminate over existing solid floors if they're level
• Tiles over existing tiles in some circumstances

But often it's better to remove old flooring to:

• Check the condition of what's underneath
• Create a proper, level base
• Avoid raising floor height too much (affecting doors, appliances etc)

We'll advise after seeing your existing floor.

Which kitchen flooring is easiest to install?

If you're thinking about DIY, vinyl plank flooring and click-together laminate are easiest. But honest talk - kitchen floors need proper installation to last. We've fixed many DIY disasters!

Professional flooring installation services save money in the long run by:

• Getting the prep right
• Using proper tools and techniques
• Finishing edges and transitions properly
• Ensuring waterproofing around appliances
• Providing guarantees for peace of mind
