We would never advise our customers to install Solid Wood Flooring in a bathroom simply because Solid Wood Flooring would start to swell upon contact with a large amount of water. However, any pre-finished Solid Wood Flooring products can withstand any splashes and spills to an extent as the surface is water resistant.
When it comes to finishing our Solid Wood Flooring products, we make sure we apply multiple coats to strengthen the protection, making it extremely hard to scratch and chip.
Absolutely! We feel it is vital that our customers pick out their dream flooring, so we offer free samples on all of our Solid Wood Flooring products, allowing you to touch and feel the quality prior to purchasing.
When purchasing anything it is very important that the goods come with a warranty so you are protected from any manufacturing problems. Each product offers a different warranty which you can easily find on the specific product pages.
To prevent any creaks and squeaks it is very important you lay your Solid Wood Flooring onto an even subfloor. If the sub floor is not level, this can cause the flooring move and creak.
When it comes to installing a Solid Wooden Floor it is essential you leave at least a 10mm expansion gap, as this will allow the floor to breathe. As Solid Wood Flooring is a natural product you will get some slight movement (expansion and contraction), therefore an expansion gap is essential. A good way to cover up an expansion gap would be to use beading or skirting boards. This way the gap won’t be visible to the eye.
The most highly recommended way to install a Solid Wood Floor is to stick the flooring directly down to a level sub floor using a wood flooring adhesive. On each of the product pages you can download a copy of the installation guide directly to your computer with one click.
Many companies will inform you that Solid Wood Flooring doesn’t need much time to acclimatise, but we would always recommend our customers to allow a minimum of 120 hours (5 days) in the room the floor will be laid in. That way you can rest assured that your Solid Wood Flooring is 100% conditioned to be installed.
One of the main advantages of a Solid Wood Flooring product is the fact you can sand and refinish it multiple times, giving the flooring an extremely long life span. However, you shouldn’t need to sand and refinish a Solid Wood Floor for the first 10 to 15 years. The idea behind sanding and refinishing a floor is so it looks as good as new.

Laminate flooring is water resistant which means it can handle a reasonable amount of water - however, this doesn’t make it 100% waterproof. The best option is always to clean/mop any spillages or leaks as quickly as possible.
The surface on top of laminate flooring products are extremely hardwearing and scratch resistant, so you needn’t worry about pets for example damaging the surface.

Laminate flooring simply just clicks together, making it very easy for any DIY fan or handyman. Fitting Laminate Flooring doesn’t require an industry specialist, however if you do appoint one the job will be spot on.
Although this may differ depending on which company you ask, we believe it is best to give a minimum of 48 hours (2 days) for a laminate floor to acclimatise. This will ensure the best results and least risk. Make sure you put the flooring in the room it will be acclimatised in so it gets used to the correct conditions, and lay it flat so damage does not occur. You may stack packs if needed to save space.
