Wood Flooring
South London

LIGNORA supplies and fits wood flooring across South London, from the Victorian terraces of Battersea, Clapham and Wandsworth to Putney, Wimbledon, Dulwich and Greenwich. Engineered oak, herringbone and parquet, laid by our own fitters.

Wood Floors for
South London Homes

South London is largely Victorian and Edwardian: long terraces between Clapham and Wandsworth Commons, large family houses in Dulwich and Wimbledon, Georgian and Victorian streets around Greenwich, and newer riverside apartments from Battersea to Putney.

Most of these houses have been extended at the back or into the loft, so we often fit one engineered oak floor across old joists and new screed, sometimes with underfloor heating. Our own fitters lay every floor, and we post free samples before anything is ordered.

Victorian terraces

Between the Commons in Battersea, Clapham and Wandsworth, a herringbone hall leading into a wide-plank kitchen extension is a popular combination. We match the oak, finish and height so the two meet cleanly.

Family houses in Dulwich and Wimbledon

Larger Edwardian houses often still have their original boards. Where they are sound, sanding and restoring them can be better than replacing them; where they are not, engineered oak goes down over a new plywood deck.

Riverside apartments

Apartments along the river in Battersea and Putney are usually concrete, with acoustic rules in the lease, so we fit engineered oak over an underlay that meets them.

Further south

We also fit in Kingston, Sutton and Bromley, where 1930s and post-war houses suit wide plank through the ground floor.

Wood floor fitters in South London

Our own floor fitters cover South London. 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.

Most South London jobs combine an older house with a newer extension. We check the original joists, level the step between old and new, and lay one floor through both, with matched thresholds where it meets the kitchen, the garden doors and the stairs.

See how our installation service works, or tell us about your project in South London. If you have an existing hardwood floor, floor sanding and restoration may be the better option.

Engineered Oak Flooring in South London

Engineered oak suits the extended Victorian and Edwardian houses of South London, where one floor often runs from the original rooms into a new kitchen extension with underfloor heating. Choose from 103 oak floors in every tone, in wide plank, herringbone and chevron.

Start with a tone below or a pattern, and we will post free samples so you can compare them at home in daylight and in the evening.

Ask Us Anything →
Do you cover all of South London?
Yes. Our own fitters work across South London, from Battersea, Clapham and Wandsworth to Putney, Wimbledon, Dulwich, Greenwich, Kingston and Bromley. Free samples are posted anywhere, and every enquiry is answered within 24 hours.
Should I restore my original floorboards or replace them?
If the boards are sound and thick enough, restoring them is often the better choice: we sand, fill and refinish them in the colour you want. If they are damaged, uneven or too thin, a new engineered oak floor over a plywood deck is more practical. See floor sanding and restoration.
Can you fit wood flooring in a kitchen extension?
Yes. Extensions are usually screed, often with underfloor heating, so engineered oak is glued to the screed and the new room and the old house can share one floor.
Can you match a new extension floor to the rest of the house?
Usually. If the existing floor is oak in good condition, we match the width and tone as closely as we can; if it is worn, we can sand and refinish it so the old rooms and the extension finish in one colour.
How much does wood flooring cost in South London?
Engineered oak starts from £65.99 per m² including VAT for supply. Fitting is quoted on the rooms, the subfloor and the pattern, and every quote is itemised in writing.
