Engineered wood questions from Strood customers
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 the quote fixed or can it move on the day?
The quote you sign is the quote you pay. We've already lifted edges, taken moisture readings and inspected the subfloor during the survey — anything that would change the price gets flagged then, not on the day.
How long does a Strood engineered wood fit take?
A typical 30m² room in Strood is around 3 days including acclimatisation, prep, fitting and trim. Herringbone takes longer.
Can you fit herringbone oak in a Strood period property?
Yes — herringbone is one of our most-requested formats in older Strood properties. We template the room, set the centreline carefully and finish with a proper border and threshold detail.
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.
