Before the works...

In this Stratford flat we fitted approx. 19 m of oak engineered wood flooring. During our free on-site survey, we did detailed inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all available choices, followed by detailed quote with our floor fitting prices for engineered wood flooring.

Our client decided to go for floor fitting and beading installation and install 19 m oak engineered wood flooringwith solid oak scotia beading around perimeter.

How we completed the floor installation 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 its preparation for disposal to our waste facility.

During this flooring project we laid 19 m of engineered wood flooring, with , over timber subfloor (chipboard) 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 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 solid oak scotia beading around the perimeter.

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

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