New Wooden Doors and Flooring
"Natural products that provide a feature
of beauty, individuality, durability and warmth…"
Our oak flooring boards are machined to widths of 140mm, 175mm
and 225mm, in lengths ranging from 1.5m to 3m.
The boards are planed, tongue and grooved with ends matched
(for easy laying between joists). We machine stress-relief
grooves on the underside, to minimise the possibility of warping.
The laid floor needs a minimum of sanding owing to the excellent
machine finish of the boards, maintained by the stringent
quality control of our own production facility. |

All boards are kiln-dried to a moisture level of between 10% and
12%, which with acclimatisation, suits the humidity ranges of most
buildings.
Please note that advice should be sought before laying solid wooden
flooring with under-floor heating.
Adding character and style to either domestic or commercial schemes,
our oak flooring gives a distinguished, hardwearing, low-maintenance
surface that is a true sign of quality.
Pine Flooring
Pine has been used over the centuries for flooring,
owing to its durability and character, and offers a cost-effective
alternative to the more expensive floors available.
We supply a range of tongue and grooved boards in various
new and reclaimed softwoods. Widths available are from 150mm
to 200mm. The reclaimed timber we offer is generally from
demolished Victorian factories and hospitals, where only the
finest quality softwood was used. The new pine consists mainly
of pitch pine and douglas fir, all of which can be treated
with a variety of finishes to suit every environment. |

Laying
It is vital that wooden floors
are installed by professional contractors to guidelines such
as BS8201.
Wood is a natural product, and the building’s humidity
levels, heating system etc need to be considered to minimise
any movement of the finished floor.
During installation, appropriate fixing, jointing, sanding
and filling methods should be employed to ensure the floor
retains its natural beauty for years to come. |

A solid wooden floor in oak or pine, is an enhancement to any property
and will mature and adapt to any future change in style.
Environmental Policy
We actively attempt to ensure that all our new timber is obtained
from sustainable sources. We only purchase stocks originating from
managed forests where, as trees are harvested, new trees are replanted.
We do not manufacture from rainforest timber.
