Wood Flooring in Cambridge

Floors for Cambridge Properties

Cambridge has dense Victorian terraces around Mill Road and Romsey, Edwardian houses in De Freville and Chesterton, and large new neighbourhoods such as Eddington and Trumpington Meadows. We deliver engineered oak to all of them, by pallet to your door.

The new-build estates are mostly screed floors with underfloor heating, where glued-down engineered oak is the right specification. The older terraces often have suspended timber floors and narrow hallways — narrower herringbone blocks or 150mm planks keep the proportions right.

Pale and natural oak are the most popular choices in Cambridge homes, with smoked tones for contrast in open-plan extensions. Send us your room sizes for a written quote, with the wastage worked out for you.

Common Questions

Do you deliver to Cambridge?

Yes. We deliver the full collection to Cambridge and across Cambridgeshire by pallet, with free samples posted first. Want it fitted too? Tell us about your project and we'll talk you through the options. We respond to every enquiry within one working day.

Is the floor compatible with underfloor heating?

Yes — every engineered oak floor we supply in Cambridge works over underfloor heating. A 14–18mm build-up gives the most efficient heat transfer through the board. Solid wood is the one thing we rule out, and we confirm every spec in writing before you order.

Can I use my own fitter?

Yes. We'll recommend the right adhesive, underlay and trims for your subfloor, and send the technical sheets your fitter needs before the floor arrives.

Cambridge homes and the floors that suit them

Cambridge has dense Victorian terraces around Mill Road and Romsey, Edwardian houses in De Freville and Chesterton, larger houses in Newnham and off Hills Road, and big new neighbourhoods such as Eddington, Trumpington Meadows and Great Kneighton.

Victorian terraces often have original boards and side-return extensions. New neighbourhoods have screed floors with underfloor heating, suited to glued engineered oak once dry. Light, natural oaks are popular in the city's many contemporary homes.

Delivering in Cambridge has its own quirks: many Mill Road and Romsey terraces have no off-street parking and narrow pavements, so we book pallet deliveries with a tail-lift vehicle and agree a time with you. For student and academic lets, a matt lacquered engineered oak is the practical choice, and for listed college-area houses we supply written specifications for consent.

Wood floor installation in Cambridge

You can order supply only and use your own fitter in Cambridge, or tell us about your project if you would like it fitted. Either way, this is how a wood floor should go down, and we give your fitter full technical guidance.

Survey and moisture checkCheck the subfloor for moisture before the floor is ordered. Concrete and screed must be dry enough, and timber boards must be sound.
Subfloor preparationLevel and repair the subfloor and add a damp-proof membrane or primer where needed. Let the boards acclimatise in the room for two to three days before fitting.
The right fitting methodFull glue-down suits screed and underfloor heating, floating installation suits some subfloors with the right underlay, and secret nailing suits timber joists. Parquet floor installation should always be glue-down.
Skirting, trims and thresholdsMatching skirting boards, thresholds, trims and stair nosings make the job look finished, and we can supply them on the same delivery.
Specification in writingWe put the recommended adhesive, underlay and fitting method in writing with your quote, so your fitter has everything they need.

For advice on boards, adhesive and underlay for a floor in Cambridge, tell us about your project.
