Why choose wood flooring?

Wood flooring surfaces complement your decor and furnishings to create a distinctive transformation of your floors. Wood floors are an investment and they look good and can last for generations to come and can add value to your building or property. Wooden floors radiate style and comfort depending on the type of timber and colour and can change the character of your living space from rustic to classic or traditional. Wood is a healthy choice that requires cleaning now and then with the manufacturers’ recommended cleaning products. Wood is one of the few truly renewable materials we have. The UK has more forests now than it did 100 years ago.

Wide plank flooring 

The growing popularity of wide plank flooring stems from the stunning visual impact that it can have when incorporated in a room. 

The flooring produces one of a kind feature with fewer seams between each board, the eye is naturally drawn across the space, creating the illusion of openness. It can contribute to a room feeling much larger, working exceptionally well in an open floor plan where each room seems to flow into the next. Lighter wood tones can create a Scandinavian-inspired feel around your home, while darker wood types add warmth that aligns with a more rustic interior.

Glue down or floating installation 

Glue down wood flooring offers increased stability due to firm bonding with the subfloor, reduces noise transmission for a quieter environment. 


Wood  plank flooring 220mm wide or over is best installed glued or plugged won’t buckle over time. Floors with underfloor heating are always best glued down as there is less thermal resistance for the heat to go through. The thinner the board the less thermal resistance so we recommend a 15mm board.

Wood flooring in Kitchens 

The only time we do not consider installing flooring under kitchen cabinets is if we are working with a floating system. There are 3 main advantages fitting new wood flooring wall to wall in a kitchen area.


  • Moisture defense With flooring in place under cabinets, it can protect the subfloor from sneaky spills or leaks that may find their way under a cabinet.



  • Thermal insulation if you ever make changes to the kitchen in the future it will be easier to do with an existing floor underneath.



  • More Hygienic as there won’t be a lower section of floor to  trap dirt or dust collecting on the edges of your  kitchen under the cabinets.
