A Victorian railway suburb and its floors

New England grew after the Great Northern Railway opened its London to York main line in 1850. The company built housing for its workers and their families, who staffed the marshalling yard and engine sheds. Today the area runs between Millfield to the south and the Soke Parkway to the north.

Older houses, older floors

Victorian homes usually have timber boards on joists upstairs and often in the front rooms. Gaps between old boards let in draughts, so a thick underlay under carpet makes a real difference to warmth. Where boards are uneven, we may suggest hardboard first so the new floor sits flat.

Back kitchens in houses of this age may have solid floors with no damp-proof membrane. We take a moisture reading before laying LVT or wood. Sheet vinyl is a forgiving choice where a floor is not perfectly dry.

Stairs and hallways

Period staircases are often narrow and steep, with a tight turn at the top. We measure each tread at the visit so the carpet runs cleanly round the winders. Hallways take heavy wear from the front door, so a twist pile or LVT holds up well there.

If you let a property here, hard-wearing carpet in bedrooms and vinyl in wet rooms keeps costs down at each change of tenant. We can quote room by room, so you only replace what is worn.
