Installing in St Johns Wood
St Johns Wood's large Victorian and Edwardian detached and semi-detached properties, mansion flats in the neighbourhood's white-stucco mansion buildings, and converted properties near Regent's Park 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.
St John's Wood's larger detached properties often require floors across multiple levels — ground floor in engineered oak on concrete, upper floors in solid or engineered on timber. We specify and install across the whole property, ensuring consistency of tone and finish throughout.
Large properties in St John's Wood often combine kitchen extension floors with the main reception and hallway — a single specification across 150m² or more is not unusual.
Common Questions in St Johns Wood
Can you match a floor to my existing boards?
Yes. We bring multiple sample candidates to the property and assess them under your specific natural light before recommending the closest match. On-site finishing allows us to adjust tone after installation where needed.
Is the flooring compatible with underfloor heating?
All LIGNORA engineered oak floors are compatible with underfloor heating. The recommended thickness for UFH is 14–18mm. We confirm compatibility in writing before every installation and provide a warm-up protocol at handover.
Do you restore existing floors in St Johns Wood?
Yes — our sand and restore service covers Victorian pine, Edwardian oak, original parquet, and engineered oak. We assess the existing boards during the home visit and give you an honest recommendation on whether restoration will produce a better result than replacement.
