Renovating Flooring Design Dilemma

Help me identify a wooden floor!

5 years ago

Hello everyone! We are about to start renovating a house here in London, UK. We are desperately looking for a wooden floor for the house... We have seen a floor on a picture which we absolutely love, but we are really struggling to find that floor in a shop (and we have ordered many samples!).

Maybe someone here can point us to something similar? Any help would be really appreciated

Thank you!!

Nick

Hello, First, let me tell you that your Kitchen looks great and it's also spacious. I really like it! When you said, you would prefer to have your space light and that you prefer light coloured floor, the first idea it came in my mind it was the Scandinavian Kitchen style, where mostly white or light coloured floor is being used. I very much like white floor or some light grey/brown shades as you can see on the second image. Light oak it's also good idea, however if the furniture is also light oak colour it could happen that your space goes flat and boring. Don't forget that you can always decorate your space with some ornaments to make it look more interesting. Hope this helps! Best wishes

If considering wood you could get unfinished wood installed. Companies such as Wood Floor Accessories are a great supplier. Having it finished on site means a finish can be picked that works for your home. Each home has variables such as pets, different traffic and the owners desire to maintain the flooring or aversion to maintenance. Having wood finished on site has advantages. You can pick the highest quality product that works for your budget. The range of finishes available is quite wide. A professional company will try to understand your home and recommend the appropriate finish. They will also understand how easily the finish was can be renovated in the future. Amtico is an extremely robust product but being plastic, is just plastic flooring. It has its place, as does wood. In areas that have plenty of light surfaces, scratches show very easily on Amtico, Karndean etc. The manufacturers push a polishing maintenance product on consumers. However, this needs to be stripped and reapplied on a regular basis.

I'm no expert but it looks like stained pine to me. Anywhere you could discretely chip off a bit of the top layer to see the original colour?

That's probably an original floor though. Look at the gaps between the wood. Looks a bit like ship deck flooring. Only then the black lines are not gaps :-) This is a laminate I found that looks similar... (took a screenshot)

Definitely original wood boards Nick. Do you have those on your property under and existing floor perhaps?

The image does look like exposed pine floor boards. Although you may be interested in a teak product from panaget which has a similar effect https://www.panaget.com/en/elegant-browns/wood-floor-wet-area-teak-pre-oiled-ulysse

I have to completely agree with BlushingPixie It really looks like a floor (possibly pine or something similar) that was stripped or in the middle of being refinished. They may have just placed the chair there after cleaning up for the day. Either way, whatever it is it doesn't seem to have a finish on it yet. If there is they seem to be going for a more natural look. It doesn't seem to have a high gloss or wax type finish (IMHO).

Possibly a matte finish at the most if there even is a finish on it at all.

Best of luck to you!!
