Before the works...
In this Upper Norwood house we fitted approx. 27 sqm of oak solid 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 pricing for solid wood flooring.
Our client decided to go for floor fitting and beading installation and install 27 sqm oak solid wood flooringwith primed scotia beading around perimeter.
How we carried out the floor installation works...
During this flooring project we laid 27 sqm of solid wood flooring, with nail-down (secret nailing) installation, over original floorboards.
When installing 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 primed scotia beading around the perimeter.
Overall, this floor installation project was completed as planned by our local to Upper Norwood floor fitters and the new floors met the expectations and the delight of its owners.

It has a coarse texture with prominent grain markings, making it a popular choice for furniture, flooring, cabinetry, and structural applications. Oak is highly resistant to wear, moisture, and insect damage, offering long-lasting durability. It takes staining in dark, light, greys and whites well, with lacquer and oil-based finishes. Another reason that makes it the most popular timber for wooden flooring offering versatility in both traditional and contemporary designs.
