See What Our Clients from Kennington Say About Us...

• ★★★★★

  I explored a number of flooring companies to compare pricing and to get a feel for the integrity of the companies, and FloorWorks were the obvious choice to me. Their pricing was highly competitive, the information and quotes they provided was presented in a straightforward way, their communication via phone and email was friendly, prompt and helpful, and I swiftly homed in on them as my preferred contractor. I chose light oak herringbone, and the resultant flooring is absolutely beautiful. A team of three very polite gents laid the floor in a day and they left the site spotlessly clean, having more than met my expectations. Very highly recommended!

Do You Have a Question?

• Do you install parquet flooring with reclaimed blocks?

  Installation of reclaimed parquet blocks, particularly those that have been previously fitted using black resin are very difficult to re-use and re-fit. Cleaning the black resin residue is difficult and time consuming and therefore it makes the whole process very expensive.

  As our fitting services come with service guarantee and we cannot be sure of the durability of reclaimed parquet blocks, we do not provide this service. Also, bear in mind that installation of reclaimed parquet flooring may not result in a smooth and uniform appearance which you get with new parquet blocks.

  Should you consider parquet floor installation of new, rather than reclaimed blocks, please do not hesitate to contact us and we would be delighted to help and provide a free quotation.

• Install herringbone parquet flooring over underfloor heating?

  Having timber herringbone parquet flooring over underfloor heating is possible with any engineered flooring product. Such products, go with glue-down installations and will require smooth and solid subfloor with UFH, which is laid within screeded subfloor. As part of our parquet floor fitting service, we will check moisture levels of the subfloor, and make sure the new UFH system is tested before the installation. We would also apply liquid DPM membrane, when required.

• Is it possible to remove and re-lay recently installed engineered wood flooring?

  Hi Craig,

  I assume the flooring was fitted with a floating installation (over underlay), as after a glue-down installation this would not be possible at all.

  To be able to answer what amount of the flooring can be salvaged and reused, we would need to know if the planks are tongue-and-groove or click system.

  On a click-system floating installation the plank would not normally require use of any glue, and most of the flooring can be salvaged. But, tongue-and-groove flooring is glued between the planks and none of the planks should be used after removal, because the residue of adhesive in the groove will prevent new planks to slot in properly.

  I guess approx. 70% of the flooring on click system plank can be reused if carefully disassembled, but this really depends on various factors.

  Subfloor preparation should be an essential part of a site survey and if proper assessment of the subfloor level is not possible (covered by another flooring or furniture), an initial indication of cost is always handy for the client.

And Some Frequently Asked Questions...

• Can LVT be used with underfloor heating?

  Most LVT products are compatible with underfloor heating systems, but it's crucial to check the manufacturer's specific guidelines regarding maximum temperature limits (typically not exceeding 27-29°C) to prevent warping or damage.

• How long will my solid wood parquet floor last?

  A well-maintained and professionally restored parquet floor can last for many decades, often exceeding 50 years, and even over a century in some historical properties. The longevity primarily depends on the quality of the original installation, the type of wood used (harder woods like oak tend to last longer), and crucially, the level of ongoing maintenance and care. Regular cleaning, prompt addressing of spills, and avoiding abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture are vital. Furthermore, the frequency of professional restoration, including re-sanding and re-finishing, significantly extends its lifespan.

• Can laminate flooring be installed on stairs?

  Yes, but it's a more complex job. It requires cutting the planks to size for the tread and riser and using a specialised stair nosing profile to create a safe, durable, and neat-looking edge for each step. This is often best left to a professional laminate floor installers like Floorworks™.
