The story of our solid wood timber begins like the story of every being – it’s born in the green and idyllic landscape of a forest nearby London where grass and trees are greener. As every beautiful lumber we have noticed this one and imagine great looking floor in cosy family house in London. Wormholes, scars, and stains come with every single piece of natural wood and they are great storytellers and food for imagination for the upcoming generation. Little imperfections like this make every solid floor one of a kind. Since we love unique wood so much, we see a great solid wood floor fitting project in timbers like this.

Since we have already chosen the perfect Singapore home for this timber, our solid wood floor fitting service begins with a free consultation and quotation. To ensure the long life of our beloved wood, we leave the timber to acclimatise, because real wood is sensitive to humidity and environment and need some time to get used to its new home. While acclimatization, we want to be sure that the subfloor, which we lay above the solid installation is properly done. If not, our staff will clean and level subfloor if it is concrete. Concrete should be dry and even so the solid wood floor fitting service will work in properly and flooring adhesive won’t react, leading to loose-fitting. If the subfloor is not even, we advise underlay, which creates a smooth surface and reduces sounds of footsteps. Solid wood can be also installed to existing timber by nailing.

As we already said, our timber has its own life, solid wood planks can “move” a little, affected by moisture levels and other reasons. By moving we mean that because of the character and specifies of real wood, timber can contract and expand. When fitting of the solid wood floor it’s important expansion gaps around 15 mm should be left around walls to allow the movement.
