Solid wood floor and worktops?
Comments (4)What about just using traditional Maple? The black sink may not work....The alder suggested above would look nice, but it is so soft that your counters would be beat up pretty quickly which may be okay if you like a "living" or lived in kitchen look! Hickory may be a consideration....with a "rustic" hickory, you get quite a bit of dark graining that might pull the sink in....may be busy though for you....See Moreflooring ? - carpet , wood, tiles , laminate against a stripe carpet
Comments (8)Hi Simone, We can't help but love parquet in a hallway and feel it would work well with the traditional look of your carpet and stairs. What colours are your surrounding wood floors? You're right that parquet wood floors have a mix of tones which could help the hallway to blend more seamlessly with the others. Here's some inspiration: Goodrich Natural Oak Goodrich Coffee Oak I hope that helps! Best wishes, Hannah | Woodpecker Flooring...See MoreHelp! Solid wood flooring search with minimal bevels!
Comments (2)Hi Becky Do you know the reason for the Bevels? Bevels are used for pre-finished (factory finished) floors to hide overwood or lippage. Therefor it is unlikely you will find a pre-finished flooring without the bevels. What type of wood flooring pattern are you looking to create? We can help you source square edge flooring in both herringbone and plank style Engineered Wood Flooring. It will be unfinished and require sanding and finishing once installed. We hope this information helps you. Please feel free to ask us any other questions you may have....See MoreDamp proof (membrane) for floorboards
Comments (5)Firstly check where dump comes from. No point in replacing the floorboards if then there is too much moisture. Replace all damaged floorboards and make sure joists are sound and stable. Then you can add a damp proof membrane over the pine floorboards. Then you can add the underlay and the floating hardwood flooring on top. Solid wood flooring is the worst option in areas where there is moisture. We strongly recommend quality engineered flooring instead. This is a rather complex job if done properly. The installation of the damp proof membrane is crucial obviously and to do a good job you should remove the skirting boards. damp proof membranes are available from may retailers https://www.screwfix.com/p/capital-valley-plastics-ltd-damp-proof-membrane-black-1000ga-4-x-25m/88322 and all have more or less the same specs. The DPM is indeed required to damp proof anything above the structural floor. There is nothing you can do on the structural pine board other than making sure there is no water leakage and there is good ventilation. hope this helps...See More

PRO9 years agoHi Karen, as the room is a fab 12 metres long, we think it would really lend itself to wood flooring with you being able to get long rows of planks down the length. The style of the space too, with the bare stone and cosy atmosphere will work with the traditional feel of wood flooring. And of course, wood is a lot more hygienic than carpet for a dining area. We suggest going for an antique-style floor with lots of character in a warm tone. Here are some ideas below and we hope it all goes well for you.
