Before the works...

In this Bromley home we installed approx. 15 sqm sqm of oak engineered wood flooring. During our obligation-free survey, we did a thorough inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all possible options.

Our client has decided to go for floor fitting, beading installation, and install with solid white scotia beading around perimeter.

How the fitting of the floors went...

One of the challenges we faced on this project is to complete the floor works in stages, due to furniture, which could not be moved out.

After our floor installers have checked all service, property & products details on site, including amount of products supply, they started with lifting existing and its preparation for disposal to our waste facility.

In this project we installed 15 sqm of engineered wood flooring, with floating installation, over original floorboards onto Duralay Excel Silver 3.7 mm underlay with DPM barrier .

When laying new floors an expansion gap of approx. 10 mm must be left around the perimeter. This gap is either covered by new skirting boards, or in case the old ones remain - scotia or quadrant beading will be installed around the perimeter.

In this project the client decided to go with solid white scotia beading around the perimeter.

Due to the change of level, after the new flooring was installed - our experienced, local Bromley floor fitters made sure all affected doors & door frames are trimmed to height and adjusted to new flooring.

Overall the project was completed as scheduled and to the delight of the client.
