At Sutton Timber we offer both solid and engineered real wood flooring. Responsibly sourced from forests across the UK and Europe, you can be assured that our timber is an environmentally friendly option helping to reduce your carbon footprint.
Real solid wood flooring is hard to beat, crammed with character and interesting grain it creates a stunning addition to any property. For a period home or a older property, solid flooring is the obvious choice. It not only retains the character and fits with the original features of the building, but it also adds value to your property. Our real solid wood flooring is available in a variety of species including oak, ash, elm, sweet chestnut, cherry and sycamore. We specialise in wide boards, but also supply solid flooring in a variety of longer lengths and widths according to the clients requirements. Our solid wood range comes in a thickness of 20-22mm.
A desirable and sometimes a more affordable alternative to solid flooring, our engineered wood flooring is particularly popular when used over underfloor heating. Engineered boards consist of a top layer of your chosen solid wood, called a veneer. This is bonded to a high quality exterior waterproof birch ply which provides superb stability.
Engineered floors are ideal for areas that have a higher moisture content like kitchens and bathrooms but is equally beautiful in any room in the home or commercial environment. One advantage of an engineered floor is that it is quicker to lay. Boards can be either glued directly onto a concrete screed, secret nailed onto a subfloor or joists or laid as a floating floor where underfloor heating is required. Our engineered flooring comes in a range of finishes including high gloss, matt lacquers, natural oiled, satin or unfinished.
We are happy to offer advice on the fitting of your solid or engineered floor. We have teams of highly skilled, reliable fitters available to carry out the laying of your real wood floor. If choosing your own fitter, we strongly recommend you use an experienced company to carry out the installation. Can’t decide?
