Hello, unfortunately we don't have any record of where we sourced this flooring from but they are bare, white wash, floorboards. You can find some more information here: http://www.sharps.co.uk/get-the-look-coastal

Hi @lexoo2020 Please accept our sincere apologies for the delay in responding to you, we are just getting to grips with Houzz so it has taken us a little longer that we would have liked to get back to everyone. Have you thought about using paint to create some feature elements on your wall? This way you can introduce your favourite colours in the room while creating some beautiful décor. You can paint a hexagon pattern on one of your walls as shown in the video below; just replace the colours with the ones you like and that will complement your room’s colour scheme. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSLT9XYkdO4 Alternatively, how about making a collage of your favourite pictures in frames of various sizes and colours? This way you can include all your favourite moments and people in your room while still styling your space. The image below can give you an idea of how to mix and match to create the perfect look! If you would like some extra storage, why don’t you try some floating shelves? You can decorate them with your favourite accessories, and by adding a pop of colour on the edge, as the picture shows below, you create interest in your room in a subtle way.

Thanks urban space - we don't have under floor heating and the wood floor we had fitted about 5/6 yrs ago has been a nightmare. We did have an expansion joint but had so much movement and warping. We had the company back out beginning of this year and we had wanted to have a new floor at that stage but they said they could put right the existing one. Not sure on the technical term for what they did but they effectively relaid/ straightened it and used a resin with wood chips in to fill the gaps so you couldn't see them but within 5/6 months we have movement again and now all this resin is starting to rise out the top. For that reason I'm just not prepared to have a proper wood floor again - it might be down to the fitters but it has been extremely costly. By the time you add our dog into the mix and the scratches he has added to it I think a fake wood effect is the way to go for us

I wanted an invisible tough non-yellowing sealant over a thinned white emulsion wash. I used the 2 part Bona ultra matt for heavy traffic in our shop. It has been brilliantly hard wearing and 4 years on it still looks great! Having designed and decorated for nearly 30 years I would highly recommend Bona as it is easy to use and the results are superb. The secret for me is in having an ultra clean dust free floor. It's a bit of a drag but definitely worth the trouble if you need high standard professional results ! Firstly, lightly sand the water-based whitewashed surface with fine paper, wash with water and microfibre cloths and vacuum. leave for an hour or 2 to let any airborne dust settle, vacuum again and apply first thin coat. Leave for an hour or so after it's touch dry, then very lightly sand with fine finishing grade paper and vacuum. Repeat this between each subsequent coat, (usually 3 thin coats) and apply within the time stated on the instructions so that each layer bonds chemically to the one below and doesn''t shear off. It's near impossible to avoid some signs of wear over time in high traffic areas but Bona is excellent. It's not cheap but as they say, you get what you pay for!

Hello, my previous flat was very similar except your bedroom at the back was the kitchen and your kitchen was a dining room. The main problem with the current layout is when you have very young children and you’re in the kitchen preparing food, you can’t keep and eye on the children or talk to them whilst multi-tasking. If you don’t mind me asking, are all 3 bedrooms currently occupied? If not and only 2 are occupied, I would use the back bedroom as a dining room and can also be used for the kids to play. When you come to sell, depending on how many children you have then, you could always carve up the living room to make a very small bedroom on the left. These flats are great when there are only 2 people, it just gets a bit challenging when the family expands. Also you don’t want to spend too much money renovating if you are going to sell in the future.
