I like the top picture, but the bottom picture is the same floor but seems more orange toned than the above (red toned). The sample looked more like the second picture. I have no idea how to find something that I don't think will be a.complete guess!

Solid or Engineered Oak Front Door - Advice please!!!???
Comments (4)Standard wood such as oak is not a great material for doors as they can warp and twist over time. Our engineered timber doors have a Kerto Q core, Sapele Mahogany lipping and Tricoya facings- this combination prevents these issues and means that there will be no draughts due to shrinkage. The overall result of an engineered timber door is a stronger and more durable door which holds paint for longer and doesnt require maintenance. We do our doors in a 44mm or a 54mm slab with an optional thermal core, but an engineered door is definitely superior in terms of durability....See MoreRemoving scratches in engineered oak flooring - help please! :)
Comments (9)Hi leonardoflondon, Sanding would bring a few good options if that's what you were looking to do. Whether oiled or lacquered, it would allow you to stain another colour once brought back to the raw unfinished wood to match your refurb decor. Or if you wanted to keep the existing natural oak colour just give it a coat of clear hard wax oil or a coat of lacquer. Just remember that you can always repair a real wooden floor if it ever does get scratched/scuffed in the future, as well as change the colour without having to rip it all up again, tiles/vinyl etc you would need to replace. If you're looking to sand the whole floor then we suggest hiring a floor sander or pay a professional to do it, and at the same time, they would be able to re-seal it too. We hope this was some help to you....See MoreNew Concrete Floor – Prep Required for Engineered Wood & Damp Proofing
Comments (1)Option 2 Can I have the concrete finished to glue engineered wood straight down? Yes you can as long as there is a DPM Is an epoxy DPM sandwich something that is done with a self-levelling compound? is the floor not level with the rest of the house? First level the floor than apply a surface DPM Can I get away without two whole screeds considering the new concrete is at a good level? Is there anyway of salvaging the front room oak? No way of salvaging it I am afraid. You could spend hours to scrape it at back but it will be messy to save very little. And then you'll have to match a new floor with the old one. I’m also in the process of re-doing damp proofing that wasn’t done properly first time round so having the bare concrete now enables me to have the full Sovereign tanking system applied. I can’t afford to do this everywhere though, but I’m particularly anxious about moisture getting to the floor from the sides which is something it mitigates against. Are there other ways of doing this? I think that if you had problems with moisture in the past, you need to address it once and for all. Once the problem is solved through the house then you can look at ways of installing your wood floor. Floating floor fitted on top on an adequate moisture barrier and overlay will do the job very well and you won't be able to feel the difference with a glued down floor. hope this helps...See MoreLaying engineered oak floor- random or symmetrical

2 years agoI've played about with a picture of my hallway before I changed the doors and floor. I just feel more comfortable with red tones and find the orange / yellow flooring a bit clashy (but this could just be me?)
