Homes in South West Dublin and what that means for flooring work
1930s–1950s semi-detached homes in Terenure, Kimmage, Walkinstown and parts of Rathfarnham, big 1970s–1980s estates in Tallaght, Firhouse and Knocklyon, and newer apartments around Citywest.
Mid-century homes often have suspended timber floors downstairs that need levelling or insulating before new flooring goes down. Newer homes usually have concrete or chipboard floors, so levelling compound and moisture checks are the key preparation steps.
What to check before you hire a flooring fitter
- Ask whether the subfloor will be moisture-tested before fitting
- Check that underlay, trims and door trimming are included
- Confirm the floor suits underfloor heating if you have it
- Ask how expansion gaps will be finished
- Keep the manufacturer's warranty details

What flooring issues are common in South West Dublin?
Mid-century homes often have suspended timber floors downstairs that need levelling or insulating before new flooring goes down. Newer homes usually have concrete or chipboard floors, so levelling compound and moisture checks are the key preparation steps.
Is engineered or solid wood better?
Engineered wood is more stable and suits underfloor heating and concrete floors. Solid wood can be sanded more times over its life.
Can wooden floors go over underfloor heating?
Engineered wood usually can, within the manufacturer's temperature limits. Solid wood is generally not recommended.
How long does fitting a floor take?
Most rooms take a day. A whole floor of a house usually takes two to four days, including preparation.
What is the best floor for a kitchen or bathroom?
LVT and porcelain tiles cope best with water. Laminate and wood can be damaged by standing water.
