Despite the advances in engineered wood and laminate flooring, for some people, only solid oak flooring will do. Until now, there has often been a compromise between quality and price.

Modern flooring, such as vinyl and laminate flooring are designed to look like solid woods, including oak flooring. Whilst realistic laminate flooring is not solid oak. Oak flooring offers warmth and timeless natural beauty and is the real thing. Natural wood looks realistic, because it is realistic, and so will fit in with the furniture of any room, without looking out of place. Another feature with oak flooring is that it can make a room look bigger, without making it look empty.
Oak Flooring offers fantastic wear resistance and durability, so can last for many years if looked after properly. Oak Flooring, however, can be susceptible to dents and scratches over time, and perhaps isn’t the best type of flooring for high traffic areas such as the hallway without a rug. A good way to protect oak flooring is by using felt pads on furniture such as sofas and beds.
Oak Flooring also doesn’t like to be exposed to moisture, and so would not be suitable for bathrooms or kitchens where there is a lot of steam and water around.
Oak flooring looks much better in rooms with lower traffic volumes, and so is perfect for a bedroom or for a dramatic living room, or dining room. Oak flooring will naturally add elegance to any room.
Oak flooring can add value to your home, and is a well known thermal insulator. This means that heating your home will cost less. Also, as oak flooring is so durable, it is also cost effective, as unlike carpet, it won’t need to be replaced as often.
Taking care of oak flooring is simple and straightforward. Vacuuming or brushing is usually enough to ensure that the floor is clean. A suitable wood polish can ensure the oak flooring stays looking great. Spillages on an oak floor can be dealt with much more quickly and efficiently than on a carpet, and there is much less risk of staining. Think how easy it is to wipe up a spill on a work surface, compared to a spill on a carpet.
