Solid wood
Made from high quality, selected and graded premium timber, the natural colours of solid wood flooring will add natural character and warmth, making it a solid investment for any home.
Engineered hardwood
With all the aesthetics of a real wood floor, but without any of the restrictions, hardwood engineered floors are a practical design choice for any home. When laid, it is virtually indistinguishable from a solid wood floor. We offer products from two leading brands – Elka and Quick-Step.
