Character Grade Solid European Oak Flooring - Sample
A stunning wood floor displaying a pleasing amount of small splits, scatterings of pip and sound open knots up 50mm in diameter. The sample can be finished with clear satin hardwax oil or supplied unoiled if preferred. The knots can either be left open or filled with a durable resin filler. The filler we use is tinted in a 'black oak' shade and has a light grey appearance until sealed with an appropriate flooring finish. If you order unoiled samples with filled knots, please be aware that the filler will darken significantly when finished and will not be grey.
Please Note: Due to the high postage costs when sending premium sized samples, we do levy a small charge. This charge is completely refundable should you ultimately decide to purchase one of our hardwood floors.
Our Character Grade Oak Flooring is machined from sustainably sourced European oak timber. The timber is kiln-dried to a moisture content of 8-10%, thus making it compatible for use within a warm, dry property. 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.
Our samples are an excellent way to demonstrate the quality of machining and finish that you can expect from us, however please be aware that wood is a natural product and as such is subject to subtle differences in tone, grain pattern and knot sizes.
