Installation of Timberlay Oak Wood Flooring

Before the works...

In this Dalston flat we laid approx. 53 sqm of oak engineered wood flooring. During our initial survey, we did a thorough inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all available options, followed by comprehensive quote with our floor installation prices for engineered wood flooring.

Our client decided to go for floor fitting and beading installation and install 53 sqm oak engineered wood flooringwith solid oak scotia beading around perimeter.

How we carried out the floor fitting works...

After our floor installers have checked all service, property & products details on site, including the amount of product supplied, they started with lifting existing carpets and preparing it for disposal to our waste facility.

During this flooring project we laid 53 sqm of engineered wood flooring, specifically - Timberlay Engineered Oak Wood Flooring, Lacquered, 150x5x18 Mm with floating installation, over engineered wood flooring onto Duralay Excel Silver 3.7 mm underlay with DPM barrier .

Our recommendations and options for underlays & sound-proofing and damp-proofing for wooden floors are discussed during initial site visit and during the product selection process.

When laying new floors an expansion gap of approx. 10 mm is left on 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 oak scotia beading around the perimeter.

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

Overall, this floor laying project was completed as originally planned by our local to Dalston floor fitters and the new floors met the expectations and the satisfaction of the client.
