Before & after
Before the works...
In this Hornsey property we fitted approx. 68 sqm of oak engineered wood flooring. During our obligation-free survey, we did detailed inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all available options, followed by itemised quote with our floor installation pricing for engineered wood flooring.
Our client decided to go for floor fitting and beading installation with installation of 68 sqm oak engineered wood flooringwith solid oak scotia beading around perimeter.
How we carried out the floor installation works...
One of the challenges we faced during the floor works was to complete the floor works in stages, due to larger pieces of furniture, which could not be removed from the rooms.
After our floor installers have checked all service, property & products details on site, including the amount of product supplied, they started with lifting existing carpets and preparing it for disposal to our waste facility.
In this flooring project we laid 68 sqm of engineered wood flooring, specifically - Timberlay Walton Oak Engineered Flooring, Smoked, Brushed & Oiled, 190x3x14 mm with floating installation, over onto TimberPro3 Gold Wood & Laminate Underlay, 3 mm .
Our recommendations and options for underlays & sound-proofing and damp-proofing for wooden floors are discussed during initial site visit and during the product selection process.
When installing new floors an expansion gap of approx. 10 mm is left on the perimeter. This gap is either covered by new skirting boards, or in case the old ones remain - scotia or quadrant beading will be installed around the perimeter.
In this project the client decided to go with solid oak scotia beading around the perimeter.
Due to the change of level, after the new flooring was installed - our experienced, local Hornsey floor fitters made sure all affected doors & door frames are trimmed to height and adjusted to new flooring.
Overall, this floor installation project was completed as planned by our local to Hornsey floor fitters and the new floors met the expectations and the satisfaction of its owners.
