Wood Flooring for Roehampton Homes

Roehampton has more variety in its housing than almost anywhere else in the borough, and that shapes the work. We supply and fit solid, engineered, herringbone and parquet floors in Roehampton, from converted mansion flats to cottage-estate houses and mid-century blocks.

It is next to Richmond Park on the edge of the borough.

Georgian Mansions Converted to Flats

Roehampton has grand historic houses. Roehampton House was built between 1710 and 1712, enlarged by Sir Edwin Lutyens in 1910 and is Grade I listed. It is now private flats. Parkstead House dates from 1760 and is also Grade I listed. Interior work in a listed building can need listed building consent, and this is separate from conservation-area rules, so check with the council first.

High ceilings and large rooms in converted mansions suit wide planks or herringbone, but sound control and lease terms matter in any flat.

Cottage Estates and the Old Village

The Dover House Estate was built by the London County Council in the 1920s and 1930s and was inspired by the Garden City movement. It is a conservation area with an Article 4 direction, as is Roehampton Village, where large detached houses still dominate the older streets. (council Article 4 page). Conservation-area and Article 4 rules cover external changes such as windows, doors, roofs and front walls. They do not govern laying a new floor indoors. Listed buildings and leasehold flats can have their own rules, so check before you order.

Cottage-estate houses are modest in size, so continuous planks through the ground floor help it feel larger.

The Alton Estate and Mid-Century Flats

The Alton Estate was built in the 1950s and is one of the largest council estates in the UK, with low and high-rise modernist blocks. Five slab blocks on Alton West are Grade II* listed, and the council describes the estate as a conservation area. Flats here often have concrete floors, which suit glued or floated engineered boards, and moisture needs checking before any wood goes down.

The University of Roehampton and Richmond Park are close by.

Access, Parking and Planning in Roehampton

Roehampton is spread out, with large estates, a village centre and the university. Access varies by building: lifts, stair-only blocks, gated developments and permit parking all affect deliveries. Tell us about these when you book the free survey.

For concrete floors in mid-century blocks we check moisture and flatness before laying, then fit skirting and thresholds to finish.
