See What Our Clients from Orpington Say About Us...

• ★★★★★

  Excellent service. We would highly recommend Floor Works. The company supplied and fitted engineered wood flooring for our new home. The finish is superb. The company were flexible when it came to re-arranging the date for the installation, to accommodate delays in other works we were having done. When sadly a plank was damaged during our move, Floor Works arranged for an engineer to attend to replace the damaged plank.

Do You Have a Question?

• 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.

• 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.

And Some Frequently Asked Questions...

• Can engineered flooring be installed over underfloor heating (UFH)?

  Absolutely. Most engineered flooring is specifically designed for use with UFH systems (both electric and water-based). Its stable construction handles temperature changes well. It's crucial that professional installation guidelines are followed to ensure proper heat transfer and prevent damage.

• How much does it cost to supply & fit LVT flooring?

  A floor installation service may include various aspect of work - subfloor prep, laying the floor, doors trimming, installation of profiles, accessories and skirting boards. While the floor laying for LVT can vary between £20 - £35 per sqm for floating installation in London and the South-East of England, herringbone installation can reach £35 - £45 per sqm. In majority of cases subfloor preparation is required for this type of product, which can add another £20 per sqm (incl. materials). Check all our professional floor fitting prices.

• Do I need tp supply underlay for my LVT flooring product?

  Click LVT flooring products, intended for floating installations (with underlay), should come integrated with the underlay - usually 1 mm padding. If this is not the case, check manufacturer recomendations.
