Hello Mr Kane,
Thank you for your comments. We appreciate you taking the time to raise your concerns.
We’d just like to clarify a few points. The operative who carried out the work confirmed that the existing subfloor was sound and in good condition. Chipboard was brought to site as a precaution; it was not forgotten, but simply wasn’t required in this case, which is why it wasn’t replaced. At no point were we informed that it had been forgotten, and it was explained during the phone conversation at the time that replacement was not needed.
As part of the installation, the subfloor was overlaid with new 6mm plywood before the cushion vinyl was fitted. As a company, we would never install flooring over a subfloor that had failed or was unsuitable, and this was not the case here.
We would also like to note that the individual you mentioned as having inspected the flooring had in fact left the company around four months prior to these works taking place.
As we were subcontracted to complete these works, any further concerns would need to be raised with your social housing provider, who appointed us. They will be able to review everything with you directly.
If there’s anything else we can help clarify, please do let us know.
Kind regards,
Flooring Matters SW Ltd
