Before the works...
In this Barking house we fitted approx. 66 sqm of oak engineered wood flooring. During our initial survey, we did detailed inspection of the floors and discussed with the client all possible choices, followed by itemised quote with our floor installation prices for engineered wood flooring.
Our client decided to go for floor fitting and skirting boards installation and install 66 sqm oak engineered wood flooring with primed MDF plain skirting boards around perimeter.
How we carried out the floor laying works...
In this flooring project we fitted 66 sqm of engineered wood flooring, with floating installation, over engineered wood flooring onto Duralay Heatflow 3 mm underlay for UFH .
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 wooden floors are originally installed, an expansion gap of approx. 10 mm is left around 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 we installed primed MDF plain skirting boards around the perimeter.
Due to the change of level, after the new flooring was installed - our experienced, local Barking 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 Barking floor fitters and the new floors met the expectations and the satisfaction of its owners.
