Wood Flooring Contractors

Engineered wood flooring is often a superior choice over solid wood flooring in Essex for several reasons:

Cost – It’s significantly cheaper than solid wood flooring.
Durability – It’s made of multiple layers of plywood that are bonded together with a small layer of solid wood or a top layer, allowing for regular heavy footfall.
Sanding and refinishing – After years and years of wear, engineered wood can be sanded and refinished, giving the appearance of brand new flooring again.
Flexibility – One of the greatest advantages over solid wood is that it doesn’t behave the same way when exposed to varying temperatures and humidities. Due to its clever design, engineered wood will be able to resist the demands of being in a bathroom or kitchen.

Engineered Flooring Installation

When installing engineered wood floor, several factors need to be taken into consideration before any work is to start. These factors include:

The condition and type of the subfloor
The location of the room
Whether there is any underfloor heating or insulation

The wood flooring in Essex can be installed using three different methods – Gluing the boards onto the subfloor, nailing the boards onto beams or something likewise, or placing the boards over a subfloor. Depending on the use of the room and the existing subfloor, it may be necessary to adapt it to suit the needs of the flooring installation method. We can also add layers of insulation under the flooring. Not only does this create a warmer, more comfortable room, it also increases the soundproofing of the room.
