Wood Flooring for Richmond Homes

Richmond's Victorian and Edwardian terraces and semis, detached properties near Richmond Park, and riverside apartments along the Thames each present specific requirements for floor specification — the right product, thickness, and fixing method depends on the subfloor type, the heating system, and the existing character of the property. We assess all of this during the home visit before making a recommendation.

Richmond's larger detached and semi-detached properties often have timber subfloors throughout — giving the option of solid hardwood installation as well as engineered oak. We assess the subfloor during the home visit and advise on which specification suits each property.

We installed 138m² of natural wide-plank engineered oak throughout a Richmond detached property — straight lay throughout on a concrete ground floor with solid oak upstairs on timber.

Common Questions in Richmond

Can you match a floor to my existing boards?

Samples come to the Richmond property; we narrow them down under the light the floor will sit in. Finishing in place means we can nudge the tone to sit right with the room.

Is the flooring compatible with underfloor heating?

Warm floors are well within reach in Richmond: engineered oak and underfloor heating work together cleanly. We size the boards at 14–18mm so heat moves through them efficiently. Solid wood is the one thing we rule out, and we confirm every spec in writing before fitting.

Do you restore existing floors in Richmond?

In most Richmond cases, yes — the existing boards are worth saving. From Victorian softwood to laid parquet, we cover the full range. The home visit includes a board assessment and an honest call on what is worth doing.

Richmond homes, from the Green to the Park

Richmond has Georgian houses around Richmond Green and Richmond Hill, Victorian and Edwardian terraces and semis in St Margarets, Kew and East Sheen, large detached houses near Richmond Park and riverside apartments along the Thames.

Period houses here suit wide planks, herringbone or reclaimed oak; many are in conservation areas and some are listed. Riverside homes need careful moisture checks and a membrane on solid floors. We laid natural wide plank oak throughout one Richmond house.

Can wide plank oak run through a whole Richmond house?

Wood floor fitters in Richmond

Our own floor fitters cover Richmond. They have worked with us for more than 11 years. We never hand a job to subcontractors, and the team doesn't leave until the floor is finished.

Survey and moisture checkBefore we order, we measure up and test the subfloor for moisture. Concrete and screed must be dry enough, timber boards must be sound, and damp proofing is added where it is needed.
Subfloor preparationWe level and repair the subfloor and add a damp-proof membrane or primer where needed. The flooring arrives on day one, so it settles into the room while we prepare.
The right fitting methodWe choose the fitting method for your subfloor: full glue-down over screed and underfloor heating, floating installation over a suitable underlay, or secret nailing onto timber joists. Parquet floor installation is always glue-down.
Skirting, trims and thresholdsWe finish the edges properly: matching skirting boards, door thresholds, trims and stair nosings, so nothing is left for another trade.
AftercareEach floor we fit is covered by our 12-month seasonal warranty, which follows the floor through every season before it is signed off.

Engineered Oak Flooring in Richmond

Engineered oak is the floor we are asked for most in Richmond. The surface is solid sawn oak; the core underneath keeps the boards flat and stable through heated winters, so it suits period houses, extensions and new builds alike. There are 103 oak floors to choose from.
