Why Real Wood Flooring?
There are many different types of flooring, though nothing comes close to real wood flooring. Wood flooring is beautiful and gives off a special warmth, combined with a fantastic effect once laid.
Solid wood flooring can make an amazing transformation to your home. Not only will it increase the value over the years, it will enhance the décor of any room or area.
Looking after any type of wooden floor, whether it be a hardwood floor, soft wood floor or exotic timber floor couldn’t be easier. With technology moving forward so rapidly, floor stains and finishes have been developed so that your timber floors need little more than a sweep or hoover.
We recommend and stock a series of professional cleaning products designed for your specific type of solid wood flooring. This will ensure that you have the correct product to best suit your type of flooring and the finish applied to it.
Wood is a natural resource therefore is renewable and recyclable. Another excellent benefit of having a wooden floor is the fact that it does not collect dust or allergens, this makes them much more hygienic and very ecologically friendly.
There is a vast selection of different timber floors ranging from oak floors, pine floors, walnut floors, engineered board flooring to exotic timber flooring for example Wenge, Merbau, Jatoba, Maple, Beech and Teak to name but a few. This means there is a lot of variety and today real wood can be very affordable.

The final thing to keep in mind is that no two boards are the same. As the floor ages some colour change can occur. This is normal. To minimize this risk, limit exposure to direct sunlight and periodically move furniture. Cracks ARE normal and will appear and disappear depending on the season and humidity.
