Our flooring services offer various types of laying methods depending on the product type. We do nail-down, glue-down and floating installation.
Secret nailing (nail-down) is highly recommended with solid wood flooring laid over wooden subfloors as it creates strong bond that can safely secure the contraction of the hardwood between seasons.
Floating is ideal for engineered and laminate floors - it allows the flooring to be laid with layer of underlay, which can tackle sound proofing or damp proofing issues. It also the recommended installation for properties / flats with shared walls and ceilings.

Local Project: Herringbone Parquet Blocks Fitting in Kensington
Parquet floor fitting always requires a very careful planning and preparation regardless of whether it is to be installed in herrringbone on any other pattern. We were delighted to transform this house into a marvelously looking home after the parquet floor installation was skillfully done by our floor fitters.
Before the actual fitting of the parquet blocks we let the flooring in the property for acclimatisation to ensure that once fitted it will be less prone to movement. The other key point for any parquet floor fitting project is to ensure that the subfloor is perfectly levelled and insulated from any potential moisture. In this case the subfloor was concrete so we applied liquid DPM (damp proof membrane) and then the parquet floors were glued down on top with durable parquet floor adhesive. Once fitted, the flooring was lightly sanded to ensure a smooth finish and then professionaly sealed with three coats of hardwearing water based varnish.
