🔧 Style Meets Practicality: Engineered Wood Flooring

Engineered wood is for today’s life, with the appearance of hardwood but with more toughness. It has a real wood top layer and layered construction, making it suitable for areas with changing temperatures or humidity, such as kitchens or conservatories.

What’s the difference between real hardwood and engineered wood flooring?


Real hardwood is made of real wood planks which can be sanded and refinished to keep their timeless look for many years. Engineered wood has a real wood top layer, with a stable layered base — making it perfect for regions that have temperature or moisture fluctuations.


Is engineered wood flooring suitable for kitchens and conservatories?

Yes! Engineered wood is designed to cope with varying levels of humidity or temperature, which makes it ideal for use in kitchens, conservatories or any room with underfloor heating.


Can I install hardwood flooring over underfloor heating?

Because of its dimensional stability, engineered wood is usually the better choice for underfloor heating. Our team can also advise on what products are right for compatibility with your heating system.


What patterns or designs can I choose for wood flooring?

We provide a choice of styles such as classic straight planks, herringbone, chevron, and wide plank layouts. With these options you can make the look and feel of your space anything you want it to be depending on your interior style.


Can I view samples before making a decision?

Of course! We invite you to come into our Ramsbottom or Norden showroom and see, feel and compare real wood and engineered flooring samples for yourself with the help of our expert team.
