Types of wood flooring

When choosing wood flooring, there are several high-quality options to consider, depending on your style preferences and budget:

  • Solid Hardwood: Made from a single piece of wood, solid hardwood is durable and can be sanded and refinished multiple times. It’s an excellent choice for living rooms, bedrooms, and dining areas.
  • Engineered Wood: Composed of multiple layers of wood, engineered wood offers stability and moisture resistance, making it suitable for spaces like kitchens or areas with underfloor heating.
  • Parquet Flooring: Known for its decorative patterns, parquet flooring offers a timeless, classic look and is ideal for creating a statement floor in any room.

Cost of wood floor installation

The cost of wood floor installation can vary based on the type of wood and the area being covered:

  • Solid Hardwood: Installation costs for solid hardwood typically range between £50 to £100 per square metre, depending on the complexity of the project and the type of wood chosen.
  • Engineered Wood: Engineered wood installation is slightly more affordable, with costs ranging from £40 to £80 per square metre.
  • Parquet Flooring: Due to its intricate designs, parquet flooring may cost more to install, typically ranging from £70 to £120 per square metre.

How long does wood floor installation take?

The time required to install wood flooring varies depending on the size of the space and the type of flooring:

  • Small Areas: For a standard kitchen or bedroom, installation usually takes 1 to 3 days, including preparation and finishing.
  • Larger Spaces: For larger areas, such as an open-plan living area or the entire home, installation can take 4 to 7 days or more, especially if intricate patterns or custom finishes are involved.

This timeline accounts for any necessary subfloor work, underlay installation, and finishing tasks like sanding and staining.

Other wood flooring FAQs

Does wood flooring need an underlay?

Yes, most wood flooring installations require an underlay to provide insulation, reduce noise, and protect against moisture.

Where not to install hardwood flooring?

Hardwood flooring should not be installed in high-moisture areas such as bathrooms or below-grade basements, as it can warp or become damaged due to water exposure.

How do you prepare a floor for hardwood flooring?

To prepare a floor for hardwood installation, the subfloor must be clean, dry, and level.

Marcus and Jamie fitted a kitchen and floor for us last year. Marcus said after they were finally finished that it had been one of the most awkward and most problematic kitchens they had ever done. Not through any fault of theirs. Wrong parts delivered and endless new unforseen issues. All handled with patience & understanding. They stayed on the job until it was finished and we couldn't have been happier with their work. Genuinely cannot recommend them enough.

Our build prerequisites were to divide a room & close an open archway, build two extra walls, move steps and a handrail, put in two entrances with doors for the new build and paint & carpet this area. Matthew (MDCC Construction) was qualified and very helpful – giving us good advice. He is an honest, tidy and thorough builder, willing to accommodate the building manager's questions and happy to make amendments. We were thrilled with the speed and finish of this build, and we will definitely use them again.

Hello there! My name is Lucas and I’m a multi-trader. Trained as a painter and decorator in 2011, I have since developed my practice to also include plastering, carpentry and joinery, as well as cabinet making. I am part of a collective of trades people called Plaster and Paint (links to works below), a group of independent builders that applies itself in everything concerning home improvement and kitchen and bathroom refurbishment. I also regularly do work for Art&Assembly LTD (links to works below), an art fabrication company that specialises in making sculptural artwork, bespoke cabinetry and furniture, and high end shops and restaurants. With over 8 years experience and City and Guilds certification in various trades, I strive for high quality work that lasts. Efficient, tidy and flexible when it comes to work schedules, I am always happy to discuss anything necessary to make whatever works undertaken as stress free as possible for everyone. I believe in the importance of living in a nice environment and the impact it has on our daily lives. This is why I take pride in the work I do and why I seek to share it with others.
