See What Our Clients from St Albans Say About Us...

• ★★★★★

  We got FloorWorks in to replace our shoddy carpets and laminate flooring in our new flat. It was a great service from some great guys, very friendly and professional. The work was carried out in 3 days, including working on a Saturday and a Sunday which was incredible useful. We had some unforeseen broken floorboards that they also sorted for us at a low cost on the day. Highly recommend.

Do You Have a Question?

• Do you install parquet flooring with reclaimed blocks?

  Installation of reclaimed parquet blocks, particularly those that have been previously fitted using black resin are very difficult to re-use and re-fit. Cleaning the black resin residue is difficult and time consuming and therefore it makes the whole process very expensive.

  As our fitting services come with service guarantee and we cannot be sure of the durability of reclaimed parquet blocks, we do not provide this service. Also, bear in mind that installation of reclaimed parquet flooring may not result in a smooth and uniform appearance which you get with new parquet blocks.

  Should you consider parquet floor installation of new, rather than reclaimed blocks, please do not hesitate to contact us and we would be delighted to help and provide a free quotation.

• Install herringbone parquet flooring over underfloor heating?

  Having timber herringbone parquet flooring over underfloor heating is possible with any engineered flooring product. Such products, go with glue-down installations and will require smooth and solid subfloor with UFH, which is laid within screeded subfloor. As part of our parquet floor fitting service, we will check moisture levels of the subfloor, and make sure the new UFH system is tested before the installation. We would also apply liquid DPM membrane, when required.

• Is it possible to remove and re-lay recently installed engineered wood flooring?

  Hi Craig,

  I assume the flooring was fitted with a floating installation (over underlay), as after a glue-down installation this would not be possible at all.

  To be able to answer what amount of the flooring can be salvaged and reused, we would need to know if the planks are tongue-and-groove or click system.

  On a click-system floating installation the plank would not normally require use of any glue, and most of the flooring can be salvaged. But, tongue-and-groove flooring is glued between the planks and none of the planks should be used after removal, because the residue of adhesive in the groove will prevent new planks to slot in properly.

  I guess approx. 70% of the flooring on click system plank can be reused if carefully disassembled, but this really depends on various factors.

  Subfloor preparation should be an essential part of a site survey and if proper assessment of the subfloor level is not possible (covered by another flooring or furniture), an initial indication of cost is always handy for the client.

And Some Frequently Asked Questions...

• Can laminate flooring be installed on stairs?

  Yes, but it's a more complex job. It requires cutting the planks to size for the tread and riser and using a specialised stair nosing profile to create a safe, durable, and neat-looking edge for each step. This is often best left to a professional laminate floor installers like Floorworks™.

• How much does it cost to lay parquet flooring?

  The cost to lay parquet flooring in the UK varies significantly depending on the type of wood, quality, pattern complexity, and labour rates in your area.

  Overall, for a standard room (around 20 m²), the total cost including materials and labour could range from £1,000 for labour and £2,200 including supply of flooring. Additional costs might include subfloor preparation, underlay, skirting boards, and door trimming.

• Is laminate flooring waterproof? Can I use it in a bathroom or kitchen?

  Standard laminate flooring is not waterproof; it is water-resistant. The HDF core can swell and be permanently damaged if water seeps into the joints. While it can be used with care in kitchens (wiping spills immediately), it's generally not recommended for bathrooms.
