Installation and fitting
We offer a fitted Marmoleum service across Kent and East Sussex. Every job starts with a site survey to check the subfloor - Marmoleum needs a smooth, dry, level base, and we'll usually recommend a liquid or fibre-reinforced latex screed where the existing surface is uneven. Sheet Marmoleum also needs 24-48 hours to acclimatise in the room before laying, and fitting is always adhesive down (not floated). Lead times from survey to fitted floor are typically 2-4 weeks depending on stock.
Marmoleum vs vinyl vs LVT - which should I choose?
| Material | Typical lifespan | Eco credentials | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marmoleum | Natural (linseed, cork, jute) | 25-40 years | Biodegradable, CO₂-neutral production |
| Sheet vinyl | Synthetic PVC | 10-20 years | Recyclable in some programmes |
| LVT | Synthetic PVC tiles/planks | 15-25 years | Recyclable in some programmes |
Choose Marmoleum for eco-priority and long lifespan, vinyl for best value and waterproof simplicity, or LVT for realistic wood/stone visuals with plank-by-plank replaceability. See our Marmoleum range for current pricing and availability.
