Provincial Grade Solid European Oak Flooring
Our Provincial Grade Oak Flooring is machined from sustainably-sourced solid European oak timber. The timber is a rustic grade and displays an abundance of splits, checks and large knots. All knots and splits come filled as standard with a durable, black-oak tinted filler and sanded to a smooth finish.
The boards can be supplied unoiled, ready to take a finish of your own choice when laid, or with an optional factory finish of Osmo Polyx Oil. The oil finish seals and protects the timber, enriching the grain to provide a heardwearing finish with a natural satin sheen.
Our Provincial Oak Flooring is available as wide board floor, for full information see below.
All our wood floors are manufactured to order, from the same batch of timber. Because we machine from natural raw materials, the dimensions of the boards can vary from batch to batch.
Wide Board Oak Floors
Supplied as a single width wide board (i.e. each board you receive will be exactly the same width). The width supplied is dependent on timber availability at the time of manufacture, but is typically between 175mm and 200mm. If you are matching up to a floor we've previously supplied, please contact us to discuss availability.
Board Lengths
Our oak floorboards are supplied in random lengths and are usually between 1.2m and 2.5m, but some may be supplied longer or shorter than that, depending on raw timber stocks at the time of machining.
All the raw timber we use is sourced from either PEFC or FSC certfied suppliers. The timber is kiln-dried to a moisture content of 8-10% and kept at an ambient temperature in our heated and humidity controlled factory. We pre-plane the boards before final machining which results in accurately machined floorboards which are extremely straight, flat and a pleasure to fit. Mass produced imported floors are not made, or quality controlled, to the same high standards as a British Hardwoods wood floor.
