Christmas is here! Well, if you ask the supermarkets it is anyway; the John Lewis advert has already debuted and mince pies line the shelves.
For restaurants, hotels, B&B’s and other establishments in the hospitality and retail sectors – Christmas and New Year’s are the busiest times of the year, so it’s essential their flooring is up to the test. For offices and other commercial premises that close over the festive period, it can be the ideal time to have their flooring updated in preparation for the New Year.
Take a look at our top flooring recommendations for different premises across the festive period.
Luxury Vinyl Tiles or LVT have become one of the fastest-growing segments in the flooring industry. But, is also a product that has, until recently, been somewhat unrecognised in the domestic market.
With advancements in manufacturing technology making LVT more accessible and a larger consumer interest in products that offer both functionality and style without breaking the bank – we thought we’d fill you in on all there is to know about this versatile product.
In this post, we’ll cover the features and benefits of luxury vinyl tiles, what makes this product so popular in both the commercial and domestic market, as well as how it differs from traditional vinyl flooring.
We have said it before and we’ll say it again, but at Rivendell we truly believe in doing our bit for the planet. Whether you recycle, take shorter showers, go paperless, or help the planet in other ways every little bit counts and it’s really rather important.
At our office we exercise a strict recycling policy as well as making sure we dispose of old flooring when fitting carpets, vinyl or wooden floors in all our clients homes. We’re even members of a number of environmental organisations such as the Woodland Trust and Children’s Scrap Store.
With all of this in mind, why not go one step further and make your home eco-friendly too? This month, our MD Mandy has been sampling some very special and equally beautiful environmentally friendly carpets made from plastic bottles. Yes, that’s right recycled plastic bottles.

The introduction and installation of Marmoleum floors into your home offer a range of benefits including:
Not only is Marmoleum an incredibly flexible flooring material but it can help you reduce your impact on the environment.
This popular flooring is made from an organic compound of cork, limestone, woodflour, and linseed oil creating an environmentally friendly material which is highly durable and long lasting.
Forbo (the manufacturer of Marmoleum) adds natural anti-bacterial properties to help prevent the growth of harmful germs. It’s a completely biologically degradable material too so at the end of its life it can be disposed of safely and responsibly.
Finally, it also has dust resistant properties making it great for people with allergies. As such Marmoleum flooring has been approved by the British Allergy Foundation.
If you want to create a custom floor design but not sure where to start, why not speak to the team at Rivendell. Using Marmoleum we can help you to design a truly unique floor that will amaze everyone who sees it.
Then, once you are happy with how it will look we can take care of everything else for you, work out how much of each colour tile you’ll need, supply, and fit the floor quickly and efficiently.
