Case Studies

Engineered Oak Flooring
Underfloor Heating

All the engineered oak flooring is 100% compatible with both electric and water underfloor heating systems. 

We can advise on installation methods and what site conditions are required prior to starting.

As a natural material, oak likes the surrounding area to remain at a constant temperature and underfloor heating can provide this environment.

Maintaining the temperature and humidity within a room allows the engineered oak flooring to retain its quality and characteristics.

Unlike normal central heating, radiators tend to produce heat locally and not necessarily evenly across the room.  Therefore, underfloor heating, if left at a constant temperature, is a good accompaniment to oak flooring.

The 'engineered' part of our floorboards relates to the base layer and its quality and construction is paramount to ensure stability within the floor.

Colours & Textures

Your oak flooring is offered with a choice of 4 main textures:

'Chateau' - a smooth sanded board, pre-oiled and ready to lay.

'Kolonial' - a brushed board to lift the grain giving a more natural feel.

'Pelgrim' - a slightly distressed oak board with small imperfections.

'Harfa Vintage' - a part hand-sawn effect providing horizontal saw marks.

Engineered Oak Flooring
Dimensions

Your oak flooring is available in a choice of widths and thicknesses.

Widths

155mm, 175mm, 190mm, 225mm and 245mm*

A narrow room looks more proportional using a narrow board and vice versa.

For an interesting option, we could mix widths to create a random or aged effect.

 

Thicknesses

2 options of 15mm and 20mm.

15mm is made up of an 11mm base and a 4mm top oak layer

20mm is made up of an 14mm base and a 6mm top oak layer

The only consideration is whether the floorboard is to be used as a structural board (i.e. laying over floor joists) - in this case we recommend 20mm; otherwise a 15mm is perfect.  

 

Lengths

The majority of all floorboards will be in long lengths 2100mm to 2400mm.  A few shorter boards (1500mm+) may be included, but normally these can be used at the end of a run.

Cleaning & Maintenance

Everyday

Your oak flooring can be quite resilient against everyday wear and tear.  Although not daily, you should treat your floor like a carpet and vacuum when you see fit to remove dust and debris.  

Weekly

A compatible cleaner is available for all Oak By Design floors.  Please DO NOT be tempted to use a house cleaner or off the shelf product from the local supermarket.   Our cleaners are designed to compliment the flooring.  A spray mop as shown can be used.

Annually

Depending on the amount of wear your oak flooring has had, it may be necessary to lightly re-oil the floor.  Light traffic areas shouldn't need oiling for years, but higher traffic areas should be treated regularly.
