Wood Flooring in Folkestone

Floors for Folkestone Properties

Folkestone mixes grand Victorian and Edwardian villas around the Leas with the creative quarter's terraces, harbour-side apartments and newer homes towards Hythe and Cheriton. We deliver engineered oak across the town, by pallet to your door.

On the coast the air holds more moisture through the year, which is why stable engineered boards are a better fit than solid oak in many Folkestone homes. In converted flats, check your lease for acoustic underlay requirements before you order — we will recommend a matching build-up.

Light, whitewashed and natural oak suit the bright seaside light, while herringbone suits the tall hallways of the Victorian villas. Free samples are posted first, and your written quote includes delivery.

Common Questions

Do you deliver to Folkestone?

Yes. We deliver the full collection to Folkestone and across Kent 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 Folkestone 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.

Folkestone homes and the floors that suit them

Folkestone has grand Victorian and Edwardian villas around the Leas and the West End, the terraces of the Creative Quarter, harbour-side apartments in the regenerated harbour area, and newer homes towards Hythe and Cheriton.

Seafront villas often have tall rooms and original floors, suiting herringbone or wide boards. Harbour apartments have concrete floors and lease rules suited to engineered oak over acoustic underlay. Coastal homes benefit from lacquered finishes that cope with sand.

Sea air on the Leas and around the harbour means humidity changes more than inland, so engineered oak and a few days' acclimatisation in the room are essential. Large Victorian villas here often have lofty ground floors and tall skirting, which suit wider herringbone blocks and borders around fireplaces.

Wood floor installation in Folkestone

Many customers in Folkestone order supply only and have their own fitter lay the floor. If you'd like us to fit it, tell us about your project. These are the steps we recommend for any installation.

Survey and moisture checkMeasure every room and moisture-test the subfloor before ordering. A screed or slab that is too damp needs damp proofing first.
Subfloor preparationUneven subfloors should be levelled first. Our boards are pre-acclimatised, and two to three days in the room before fitting is usually enough.
The right fitting methodChoose the method for the subfloor: glue-down over concrete and underfloor heating, floating installation over the right underlay, or secret nailing onto timber. Herringbone and parquet blocks should be glued down.
Skirting, trims and thresholdsFinish with matching skirting boards, thresholds, trims and stair nosings. We can supply these with your floor.
Specification in writingWe put the recommended adhesive, underlay and fitting method in writing with your quote, so your fitter has everything they need.

Tell us about your project and we'll advise on the right board, adhesive and underlay for your home in Folkestone.
