Corby is one of Northamptonshire’s most ambitious towns — a place that has reinvented itself from a steel town into a growing residential destination, with new build housing forming a central part of its regeneration story. Large developments across the town have attracted young families, first-time buyers and buyers relocating from London and the South East, drawn by competitive pricing and Corby’s improving infrastructure — including fast trains to London St Pancras in under an hour. Koti Homes serves Corby and the wider Midlands, specialising exclusively in new build flooring and providing the expert, efficient service that new homeowners in the town deserve.
Why LVT Is the Best Choice for Your New Build in Corby
For new build flooring in Corby, LVT — Luxury Vinyl Tile — is Koti Homes’ most highly recommended product. LVT is completely waterproof, making it suitable for every room in your home — kitchen, bathroom, hallway, utility room and en suite — without any risk of moisture damage. This is especially important in Corby’s new builds, where the scale of recent construction means many homes are still in the early stages of the drying-out process. Laminate is not waterproof and risks swelling or delaminating in these conditions; LVT won’t. LVT also delivers a much longer lifespan: around 20 years versus 8–12 for laminate. It’s fully compatible with the underfloor heating systems common in modern Corby homes, comes in a wide range of wood and stone finishes, and is easy to maintain.

Carpets for New Builds in Corby
Carpet is the popular choice for bedrooms, staircases and landing areas in Corby new builds — and Koti Homes has an excellent range. Twist pile is our recommendation for stairs and hallways: highly durable, practical and ideal for busy households with pets or children. Saxony carpet transforms bedrooms with its deep, luxurious pile. Loop pile provides a smart, contemporary texture for living areas. We supply from Abingdon, Invictus and Cormar — and Abingdon’s Stainfree range comes with a lifetime stain guarantee that’s ideal for family homes. Carpet can be fitted from day one: it’s completely unaffected by subfloor moisture. See our carpet FAQ for more.
What About Vinyl and Laminate?
Koti Homes also installs vinyl sheet and laminate for Corby new builds. Vinyl sheet is a waterproof, budget-friendly option for utility rooms and practical spaces. Laminate has wide appeal but isn’t waterproof and lasts only 8–12 years. For most Corby new build buyers, LVT is the smarter long-term investment. We’ll always give honest, room-by-room advice to help you make the right call.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Koti Homes fit flooring in my new build in Corby?
Yes — Koti Homes covers Corby and the wider Midlands. We specialise exclusively in new build properties and can start fitting the day you receive your keys.
How soon can flooring be fitted after moving into a new build?
LVT and carpets can be fitted very quickly after moving in. Carpets can go down from day one as they’re not affected by subfloor moisture. LVT should be fitted once the property has been lived in for a few weeks and the subfloor has had a chance to settle, though Koti will assess conditions on the day.
Why choose LVT over laminate in a new build?
LVT is 100% waterproof, lasts around 20 years, and is more stable in the conditions of a new build. Laminate is not waterproof, can swell in damp areas, and typically lasts 8–12 years. For most rooms, LVT gives better long-term value.
