D'Arblay Street, Soho
The Flooring Company Sheffield successfully completed a commercial office flooring installation at 16 D'Arblay Street, Soho, London W1, as part of a high-quality office refurbishment project. The client required a durable and visually striking commercial LVT flooring solution capable of withstanding the demands of a busy workplace environment.
Following detailed subfloor preparation using Ardex Feather Finish over the existing plywood substrate, our team installed 145m² of Amtico Signature Foam Herringbone LVT throughout the third-floor office space. The finished installation combines the timeless appeal of herringbone flooring with the performance benefits of modern Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT), creating a professional, low-maintenance office flooring solution designed for long-term commercial use.
Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT) provide an exceptional flooring solution for commercial offices, combining premium aesthetics with outstanding durability. Designed to withstand heavy foot traffic, rolling office furniture, and the demands of everyday workplace activity, LVT maintains its appearance even in busy environments. Its low-maintenance surface, excellent wear resistance, and wide range of design options make it a popular choice for office refurbishments, delivering a professional finish that performs for years to come.
Project Challenges & How We Overcame Them
While the office refurbishment progressed efficiently, several technical considerations had to be carefully managed to achieve the premium finish required for this Central London workspace. Through detailed planning, expert preparation, and precise installation techniques, our team successfully delivered a high-quality commercial LVT flooring installation.
-
Installing herringbone LVT requires a significantly higher level of accuracy than standard plank installations, as even minor inconsistencies can become highly visible across large open areas. Our installers carefully set out the floor from key reference points, ensuring the Amtico Signature Herringbone pattern remained perfectly aligned throughout the entire office space. This meticulous approach delivered a seamless and professional finish across all areas.
-
To achieve the desired finish, the existing plywood substrate required careful assessment and preparation before installation could begin. Ardex Feather Finish was applied across the floor to eliminate minor imperfections and create a smooth, stable surface suitable for the new LVT flooring system. This preparation was essential in ensuring both the appearance and long-term durability of the finished floor.
-
As part of a wider office refurbishment project, flooring works needed to be coordinated alongside other trades operating within the building. Our team maintained close communication with the project stakeholders, carefully scheduling installation activities to ensure efficient progress while helping keep the overall refurbishment programme on track.
