Flooring for Islington homes
Islington is home base for Urban Floors. Ashton measures, supplies and fits flooring in homes across the borough, from Highbury and Canonbury to Barnsbury, Angel and Archway, so a free measuring visit here is quick to arrange.
The borough is known for Georgian and Victorian terraces, converted flats in period houses, mansion blocks and newer apartment developments. Many homes have original staircases worth showing off, which is why stair runners are so popular here.
In Islington's period terraces, a stair runner shows off painted spindles and original treads, while wool-rich carpet suits bedrooms in upper-floor flats. Kitchen extensions with underfloor heating are usually best with gluedown LVT laid over a ply-boarded or screeded base.
We cover Angel, Highbury, Canonbury, Barnsbury, Archway, Holloway Road, Tufnell Park, Pentonville and surrounding streets in N1, N5, N7, N19.
Every job in Islington starts with a free measuring visit by Ashton himself, followed by a fixed-price quote, usually within 24 hours. Visits are booked by appointment during opening hours.

Know your home
Flooring challenges in Islington
Uneven original floorboards
Period floors have moved over a century or more. Thin floors such as LVT and vinyl usually need ply boarding first.
Narrow, steep staircases
Terrace staircases are often tight, with winders at the top. Runners and stair carpet need careful planning at the measure.
Sound between flats
In converted houses, flooring and underlay choices affect noise for neighbours below.
Where preparation is needed, Urban Floors carries out screeding and ply boarding with materials supplied, and includes it in your fixed price.
