We post free samples anywhere in Hemel Hempstead and talk through your subfloor before you order.

Hemel Hempstead's post-war housing stock has predominantly concrete subfloors — engineered oak in glue-down configuration is the appropriate specification for the majority of properties in this area.

Every order comes with full care and fitting guidance. Lead times from 2–3 weeks for pre-finished stock; 8 weeks for bespoke made-to-order floors.

Common Questions

Do you deliver to Hemel Hempstead?

Yes. We deliver the full collection to Hemel Hempstead and across Hertfordshire 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?

Heated subfloors are common in Hemel Hempstead, and our engineered oak handles them comfortably. 14–18mm is the sweet spot, thick enough to feel solid yet thin enough to conduct heat well. 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.

Hemel Hempstead homes and their floors

Hemel Hempstead was expanded as a post-war new town, so most neighbourhoods, such as Adeyfield, Bennetts End and Leverstock Green, have 1950s and 1960s houses with concrete floors. The Old Town High Street keeps older buildings, and newer developments spread around the edges.

Concrete ground floors suit engineered oak glued or floated, and many owners open up their kitchens and dining rooms into one space. In the Old Town, older buildings have uneven timber floors that need levelling. Durable lacquered finishes suit busy family homes.

Is engineered oak suitable for a concrete floor?

Yes. Engineered oak is ideal over concrete. We check moisture and flatness first, then glue it down or float it over a suitable underlay.

Wood floor installation in Hemel Hempstead

Many customers in Hemel Hempstead 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 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 writingEvery engineered board we supply is suitable for underfloor heating, and we confirm the adhesive and underlay for your subfloor in writing.

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