Why Chatham chooses us for engineered wood
Chatham is the historic naval town at the heart of Medway; we work across Walderslade, Luton, Wayfield and out towards Rochester on a regular cycle. Getting a engineered wood quote for your Chatham property should be quick and honest. We come to you across ME4, measure properly, walk through the subfloor, and follow up with a written breakdown — usually within 24 hours of leaving St Mary's Island.

Engineered wood questions from Chatham customers
Oiled or lacquered finish?
Lacquered is lower maintenance and very hard wearing. Oiled looks softer, ages beautifully and any deep scratches can be spot-repaired without refinishing the whole floor.
Will engineered wood work over underfloor heating?
Yes — engineered wood is the recommended real-wood option over UFH. We glue down and commission the heating gradually to avoid any board movement.
Is engineered wood the same as solid wood?
It has the same real-wood top layer but a stable plywood core underneath, which is why it handles modern heated subfloors and humidity changes far better than solid wood.
Can you supply samples?
Yes — sample boards are brought to your Chatham address at the survey, and we keep a board library in our Gillingham warehouse.
How quickly can you survey in Chatham?
Most Chatham surveys are booked within 48 hours of your enquiry. We cover all of the ME4 district from our local warehouse.
