Wood Flooring
There are two basic types of wood flooring to choose from, solid or engineered. The “engineered” product has a surface of hardwood bonded to a laminated base which counteracts wood’s tendency to shrink and expand and makes it easier to lay. Solid products are available in planks, strips or parquet. An extensive variety of woods are used for flooring providing a beautiful selection of colours and textures from which to compliment your home.
Location and Use
Wood floors can be used throughout your home; we particularly recommend them for all reception rooms, studies, hallways. Modern protective finishes make wood flooring more durable so there is often no need for special polishes and buffing. Just use a soft broom or vacuum cleaner to keep them in good shape.
Fitting
Our wood floor fitting service comes with ultimate attention to detail, focused on durability and safety of installation. We do not cut corners on floor preparation before putting the final layer of your parquet flooring, solid wood or engineered wood flooring down.
Laminate flooring
Laminates are composed of three layers, which are fused together under extreme heat and pressure. Colour laminate flooring is available in a wide variety of styles incorporating wood and stone effects and many other finishes. The finish of laminate can really influence the overall look it has within your home. There are a range of finishes available to suit your taste including:
- Smooth.
- Wood grain
- Embossed
Location and Use
Laminate floors are suitable for most rooms especially areas heavily used such as kitchens, halls, living rooms and dining rooms. They are also ideal for your home office, library and workshop. Laminates are extremely durable, great for homes with a high degree of foot traffic. They are durable and easy to maintain without specialist cleaning materials and polishes.
Vinyl flooring
Vinyl flooring is available in a great selection of styles so it can match any décor. It is easy to clean and simple to lay either as a vinyl sheet or separate tiles. Vinyl flooring is also very durable, scratch resistant and water resistant. Cushioned vinyl flooring can offer a striking finish to a room, and is also easy to clean and maintain., with a wide range of styles available including plain, wood, tile, stone and mosaic.
Location and Use
Cushioned vinyl is ideal for kitchens and bathrooms, but is equally suitable for dining rooms and conservatories.
