Overview
Why choose gluedown LVT
Gluedown LVT is bonded directly to a smooth, sound subfloor. Because every plank is fixed, the floor is extremely stable, very quiet underfoot and suits large spaces, heated floors and detailed layouts such as herringbone with borders.
Gluedown is a precision job. The finished floor shows every flaw in the base, so preparation is the most important part of the installation. Urban Floors supplies the screed or ply boarding materials and carries out the preparation before fitting.
Gluedown systems are available in underfloor heating compatible options. Ashton will confirm the right product and adhesive approach for your room at the free measure.
Who it's for
- Kitchens, open-plan living spaces and hallways
- Herringbone and patterned designs with crisp borders
- Rooms with underfloor heating
- Homeowners wanting the most stable LVT installation
Get it right first time
What goes wrong with gluedown LVT
Telegraphing
Any bump, crack or old adhesive in the base shows through the finished floor as a ridge or dip.
Lifting tiles
A dusty, weak or damp base stops the adhesive bonding properly, leading to lifting.
Misaligned patterns
Herringbone and borders need setting out from the centre of the room. Mistakes cannot be hidden.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Skipping screeding to save time
- Gluing over old, unsound floor coverings
- Starting a herringbone from a wall instead of a planned centre line
- Choosing a product that is not suitable for your heating system

In detail
Preparation, layout and design
Screeding and ply
Concrete subfloors are typically smoothed with screed; timber floors may need ply boarding. Materials are supplied by Urban Floors.
Herringbone and borders
Gluedown lets you lay herringbone blocks with perimeter borders, a classic look in period homes.
Underfloor heating
Underfloor heating compatible gluedown systems are available and confirmed against your heating at the measure.
Gluedown vs click
Gluedown is more stable and suits complex layouts; click is faster and floats. Ashton will advise which suits your room.
