Basic Guide for fitting solid wood floors
Engineered Wood Flooring
Solid wood floors can react by warping, cupping and twisting in certain damp environmental conditions this is why we supply top quality engineered wood flooring. Our Engineered floor prices start from £23.46/m2. We have over 50 different choices in our engineered wooden flooring range with the solid top layer being 5mm or 6mm and the boards, all single planks, are 20mm to 21mm thick and from 150mm to 220mm wide. We use a multiply board not the cheap sandwich of softwood, as the latter will not stand, in our view, the wear and impact that our engineered floors will. See the full details in our engineered flooring section.
All about Engineered Flooring A basic guide to fitting these floors
Antique Flooring
Our unique range of hand distressed solid oak boards and engineered boards have taken the market by storm. These boards have been hand worked to look like reclaimed oak floor boards but in fact are new, using the latest finishes and techniques, and are a fraction of the price of reclaimed boards. They can be fitted easily and will look good for years. These boards can be used in any situation.
Walnut Flooring
Our Black American walnut flooring is one of the top quality products currently in the UK market. All our wood flooring comes from sustainable sources and we have FSC certificates for our walnut flooring. Walnut flooring adds another dimension to hardwood flooring options.
Maple Flooring
Our hard maple flooring comes in both solid and engineered and we are very selective when choosing the boards to ensure that there is a minimum amount of knots and black streaks which can sometimes be very dominant in maple and can spoil the effect of Maple and its warm colour and ambiance.
Jatoba Flooring (Brazilian Cherry)
We have an FSC certificate from the factory where we produce our Jatoba, a copy is available to anyone who buys our engineered Jatoba. We are very environmentally aware and will not buy raw material from any illegal logging sources. Our Jatoba is only available in engineered board so that we can reduce the amount of actual Jatoba used for our wooden flooring.
