Timbercraft Herringbone Engineered Oak Parquet Flooring, Brushed & Oiled, 90x400x18 Mm
Installation
Solid wood flooring requires a tight bond to the subfloor to limit any seasonal movement and therefore is laid with glue-down installation in the case of plywood, chipboard and concrete subfloors, or nail-down (secret nailing) in the case of plywood or floorboards. Damp proofing course is highly recommended for concrete / screeded subfloors.
With our experienced, local floor fitters, your hardwood floors are in safe hands - regardless, if what method of installation they require.
Natural Oiled Finish
Oil based finishes seal timber by soaking into the wooden surface and therefore tend to provide a more natural feel and look of the timber. Quite often wooden floors are sealed with oil after going through a "brushing" process, which embosses the texture of the wooden surface. Floors with such finish are referred to as "Brushed & Oiled".
This type of finish is less durable compared to the lacquer, but allows re-coating of your wooden floors. This can have some benefits in terms of maintenance, as re-coating can delay the complete renovation of the floors, which uses the process of sanding and reduces the wearable thickness of the wooden floors.
The oil-based finishes however are slow-drying (6-10 hours per coat) and it may be difficult in terms of planning and furniture to apply a new top coat in a busy household. In fact, due to this inconvenience many household tend to delay recoating of oiled floors and end up renovating their floors too early.
Floor Installation Service
Majority of solid wood planks are 20 mm or 18 mm thick, which provide excellent solidness and flooring stability even if laid as suspended floors onto batten or timber joists. They can be secret-nailed or glued-down and usually available with extended life span guarantee. Solid wood flooring is not compatible with underfloor heating.
Our hardwood floor installation service starts with an obligation-free site visit, when you will receive advice for subfloors preparation as well.
