Quick answer
Maximum Flooring supplies and fits carpet, sheet vinyl, laminate and LVT for letting agents and property managers across Burton-on-Trent, Branston and Swadlincote. Send the property address, the rooms involved and how access works, and we'll come back with an itemised quotation you can pass to the landlord for approval before any work is booked.
When a tenant moves out and the carpets are past saving, or a kitchen floor has lifted at the seams, the agent is usually the one who has to find someone, get a price the landlord will approve and fit the work around a void or a tenant who's still living there. That's the job this page is for.
We supply and fit flooring in managed rental properties across Burton-on-Trent and the surrounding area: replacing worn bedroom and lounge carpets, putting sheet vinyl or LVT into kitchens and bathrooms, and refreshing whole properties between tenancies. Each property gets its own written quotation, so the landlord can see exactly what they're approving.

- Tenancy, deposit or compliance advice, which stays with you and the landlord
- Subfloor repairs unless they're specified in the quotation
What we need to give you an estimate
- The property address and postcode
- Which rooms need flooring, with rough sizes or a floor plan if you have one
- Whether the property is empty (void) or tenant-occupied
- How access works: keys from your branch, meeting a tenant, or a key safe
- Any spec the landlord has asked for, or a budget level to work to
- Who the quotation and invoice should be addressed to: the agency or the landlord
- Your preferred timing, for example a target re-let date
How it works with an agent
- Send the property details through the enquiry form, mentioning that you're the managing agent
- We confirm the scope, and arrange a measure at the property if one is needed
- You receive an itemised quotation to pass to the landlord for approval
- Once approved, we agree a date that suits the void or the tenant
- Ask for a note of the products fitted, so the property file shows exactly what went down
Void turnarounds
Every day a property sits empty costs the landlord rent, so flooring between tenancies usually needs to fit around cleaning, decorating and check-in. The more we know up front (the rooms, the target re-let date, whether decorators are going in first), the easier it is to plan a sensible slot. Flooring normally goes in after decorating so paint and dust sheets don't damage new carpet.
If the old flooring needs lifting and taking away, say so when you enquire so it's included in the quotation rather than left for the cleaners.
Tenant-occupied properties
Replacing a floor while a tenant is still living in the property is common, particularly for a damaged kitchen floor or a worn stair carpet. We'll need to know who to contact to arrange access and whether the room can be cleared beforehand. Rooms full of furniture take longer and may need the tenant's help, so it's worth checking with them first.
Choosing a spec landlords will approve
Landlords usually want flooring that looks clean in the listing photos, survives a tenancy and is cheap to put right if one area gets damaged. In practice that means hard-wearing carpet in bedrooms, sheet vinyl or LVT in kitchens and bathrooms, and laminate or LVT in hallways and living areas. Neutral colours appeal to the widest range of tenants.
Sticking to a consistent spec across a landlord's properties, or across your managed portfolio, makes future repairs, matching and budgeting much simpler.
Wear and tear, and documenting what's fitted
At the end of a tenancy, the age and quality of the flooring matter when deciding whether damage is beyond fair wear and tear. A record of what was fitted and when, alongside the check-in inventory photos, makes those conversations easier. The deposit protection schemes publish guidance on this, for example the TDS guide to wear and tear.
