    These floors can bring warmth to rooms with rich earthy tones created with natural oil stains and smoke curing techniques which react with the tannins in the timber.

The oak is treated simply and with the utmost respect for the surface grain. Lacquer or oil is used to seal and protect but most importantly to enhance the natural beauty of pure oak.
  - Grey
    Grey
    Grey comes in many shades of light and dark and works beautifully with warm base tones of our European Oak surfaces. Light greys add a faded industrial aesthetic perfect for minimal designs. While deep grey can be brushed into natural grains adding a contemporary edge to rustic oak planks and parquet blocks.
  - Light
    Light
    Creating light floors requires a deep understanding of how the raw timber reacts to lacquers and oil finishes. We offer a range of light floors which maintain the look of raw untreated oak with it's pale washed out tones while still giving a hard wearing floor surface that are both beautiful and practical to live on.
  - White
    White
    White floors open up spaces and flood buildings with light to create a real feeling of spring and summer even on the darkest winter days. Oak can be treated with reactive dyes which give a bleaching effect whilst white stain is applied by rollers and buffed in to penetrate the top surface of the board and then sealed with either oil or lacquer, resulting in extra emphasis of the natural figure of the wood.

    Floor Cleaning
    Wood flooring is easy to keep in great condition. Both lacquered and oiled finishes are semi permeable allowing the wood to breathe. This means you should avoid using harsh chemical and abrasive cleaners on your hardwood or laminate wood floors. Many ‘supermarket’ brands claim to work well on all surfaces including wood floors but most should be avoided as they contain high acidic or caustic ingredients that will quickly compromise the lacquered or oiled surface of your floor, destroying the water and stain resistant properties.
  - Oiled Floor Maintenance
    Oiled Floor Maintenance
    Oiled floors can be kept in great condition simply by treating with more oil from time to time. Maintenance can be buffed into the surface of an oiled floor to enhance the natural beauty of the wood and keep oiled surface water and stain resistant.

    Underlay
    Our engineered plank and laminate floors can be installed as a floating floor over specialist underlays which cushion the flooring from slight imperfection in a subfloor.
