Period character and family homes in PE3

Longthorpe was once a separate village in the Soke of Peterborough and is now part of the city. Its most famous building is Longthorpe Tower, a 14th-century fortified manor house in the care of English Heritage. Inside are some of the most complete medieval domestic wall paintings in northern Europe.

Older houses near the historic core

St Botolph's Church dates from the 13th century, and the area has several other listed buildings. In older properties, solid floors may lack a damp-proof membrane. We test for moisture before laying LVT or wood, and the quote shows any preparation needed.

Larger rooms and open-plan living

Wide rooms show every seam, so we plan carpet joins away from doorways and light. Engineered wood works well across open-plan spaces because it moves less than solid timber. A wool or wool-mix carpet adds warmth to bedrooms and formal sitting rooms.

Kitchens and garden rooms

Kitchens that open onto a garden take grit and water from outside. LVT in a stone or oak look handles that well and is easy to mop. Where a kitchen meets a carpeted room, we fit a neat threshold so the two floors sit level.

Stairs and landings

Turning staircases need each step measured on its own. A dense saxony or woven carpet looks smart on stairs and wears evenly. We can also fit a runner with a border of exposed timber either side.
