Before the works...
In this Bermondsey flat we installed approx. 32 sqm sqm of oak engineered wood flooring. During our free survey, we did detailed 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 Timberlay Engineered Oak Wood Flooring, Lacquered with solid oak scotia beading around perimeter.
How the floor installation was completed...
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 carpets and its preparation for disposal to our waste facility.
During this flooring project we installed 32 sqm of engineered wood flooring, specifically - Timberlay Engineered Oak Wood Flooring, Lacquered with floating installation, over plied timber subfloor onto Duralay Excel Silver 3.7 mm underlay with DPM barrier .
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 Bermondsey 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 satisfaction of the client.
Did you know this about oak flooring?
Oak wood is a durable and strong hardwood timber known for its distinct grain patterns and wide range of colors, from light brown to reddish tones. 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.
