Premium Flooring for Bannerghatta Road Villas — Scale and Humidity Expertise

Engineered wood with a 6-ply plywood core and thick veneer, installed floating with 10mm perimeter expansion gaps. LVT is an alternative for greater humidity resistance with comparable visual warmth. Solid wood flooring is not recommended anywhere on Bannerghatta Road — humidity variation causes too much dimensional change in solid timber.

Mixed specification (large-format porcelain in common areas, engineered wood in bedrooms, anti-slip tile in bathrooms, epoxy in utility): ₹3.5L–₹6L for materials and labour across approximately 1,500 sq ft of floor area.

Vitrified tiles are the most practical choice for most Bangalore homes: they are waterproof, highly durable, easy to clean, and perform perfectly across monsoon and dry seasons. Laminate flooring offers a warmer wood-look finish that is more comfortable underfoot in bedrooms, but it is moisture-sensitive — avoid it in rooms with any risk of water contact (near balcony doors, kitchen, bathrooms). Vinyl (LVT) is a newer option that gives the wood-look warmth of laminate with near-tile waterproofing — an excellent bedroom option for Bangalore flats.

Overlaying new tiles on existing tiles is possible if the existing tiles are firmly bonded (no hollow spots), the ceiling height permits a 12–15mm height gain, and door clearances allow for it. We test each tile by tapping before recommending an overlay — hollow tiles must be removed to prevent failure of the new layer. Laminate or vinyl can be installed over existing tiles more easily, as they are thinner and require only a flat (not bonded) subfloor.
