Wood Flooring is normally a type of flooring made from the timber of hardwoods, or spruce or hard pine. There are two basic manufactured types of hardwood. Wood Flooring more often than not comes unfinished, and once it has been installed, it is sanded, then finished in the home. More modernly, the product can be pre-finished in a factory and sold as a complete Wood Flooring solution. Wood Flooring can make a living area or home llok much smarter, as there is a weighted feel to the wood that you do not get with laminate (plasticky feel) flooring. It is also more versatile when purchased with wood varnishes which enables you to change the colour of the Wood Flooring quickly and relatively inexpensively. Here at quick oak we specialise in Wood Flooring of all types, solid wood, hardwood and our speciality being oak flooring.

Real Wood Flooring and Solid Wood Flooring are typically around 3/4" or 19mm thick, although some do come in 3/8" (10mm) or 5/16" (8mm) thicknesses. Real Wood Flooring and Solid Wood Flooring can be installed with a nail-down installation method over wood subfloors. Real Wood Flooring and Solid Wood Flooring however is susceptible to the effects of moisture and temperature, because hardwoods expand and contract with moisture and temperature changes in the atmosphere. Since Real Wood Flooring and Solid Wood Flooring expand and contract in the width of the grain, this type of hardwood flooring is not recommended to be installed over a concrete slab, unless otherwise stated by the manufacturer. There are some instances where 3/8"-thick solid hardwood can be installed on a concrete slab. Real Wood Flooring and Solid Wood Flooring has a great feel of quality to it as it is natural material and can add great value and asthetics to any home. We always recommend these types of floors over laminates and that is why we only stock the highest quality Real Wood Flooring and Solid Wood Flooring available in the UK for trade or public uses.

Rather than having one solid piece of Oak Flooring, the engineered hardwood method uses layers of Solid Oak Flooring veneer to create a product that can range in thickness from 3/8" or 8mm up to 9/16" or 14mm thick. The Oak Flooring can range in thickness depending on the manufacturer. In order to create an engineered hardwood, these veneer layers are stacked one on top of the other with the grain of adjacent layers oriented perpendicular to one other. Once the desired thickness is achieved, the Oak Laminate Flooring is cut into the correct board width. From there, Oak Flooring boards are then manufactured to have a tongue or groove on the edges. The final step is to add stain if necessary, and add a finish for quality and style. Also by doing this, the engineered Solid Oak Floor becomes less susceptible to the effects of moisture and temperature change, because wood expands and contracts in the width of the grain direction.
