One household in eleven in Worthing occupies a flat subdivided from a bigger building, with another near quarter in purpose-built blocks around Marine, Central, Heene and Castle. Getting a floor into one of those flats is a different exercise from getting it into a house.
Worthing blends Regency and Victorian seafront terraces with extensive interwar and postwar suburban semis in Broadwater, Goring and Durrington. This regenerating Sussex resort now attracts a growing market of young families priced out of Brighton alongside downsizers, drawn by coastal living, period charm and more affordable, spacious homes near the sea.
Engineered oak suits Worthing’s Regency and Victorian seafront homes, coping with coastal humidity better than solid timber. For the town’s growing families in Broadwater and Durrington, waterproof LVT and durable laminate offer style, easy upkeep and resilience against children, pets and the demands of everyday coastal living.

Shop rangeBroadwater, Goring, Durrington, Heene, Offington and Marine all sit inside BN11, BN13 and BN14. Flats total 35.3% of the stock in this part of West Sussex, 23.9% in purpose-built blocks and 9.0% converted out of former houses, while social renting is low at 9.8% against 67.5% owned. Conversions are the awkward category, because the floor between two dwellings was never designed as a separating structure: it is timber, it flexes, and it passes footfall straight downwards. A floating system over a resilient layer, with skirtings kept clear of the finish, is the honest answer there. Purpose-built blocks are usually concrete and more forgiving, though the lease still governs what may be laid.
At the 2021 census, 35.3% of households in Worthing lived in a flat, maisonette or apartment and 64.7% in a house or bungalow — 19.8% of all households in a terraced house.
