See What Our Clients from East Dulwich Say About Us...

• ★★★★★

  We got FloorWorks in to replace our shoddy carpets and laminate flooring in our new flat. It was a great service from some great guys, very friendly and professional. The work was carried out in 3 days, including working on a Saturday and a Sunday which was incredible useful. We had some unforeseen broken floorboards that they also sorted for us at a low cost on the day. Highly recommend.

  Absolutely brilliant at every level!! The communication from the office was friendly and very professional. The fitting of the floor was of the highest quality - clean, tidy, organised, punctual and incredibly skilled. The finished work was faultless - if Google reviews would let me give 6 stars I would :)

Your Questions Answered..

• Install herringbone parquet flooring over underfloor heating?

  Having timber herringbone parquet flooring over underfloor heating is possible with any engineered flooring product. Such products, go with glue-down installations and will require smooth and solid subfloor with UFH, which is laid within screeded subfloor. As part of our parquet floor fitting service, we will check moisture levels of the subfloor, and make sure the new UFH system is tested before the installation. We would also apply liquid DPM membrane, when required.

• Is it possible to remove and re-lay recently installed engineered wood flooring?

  Hi Craig,

  I assume the flooring was fitted with a floating installation (over underlay), as after a glue-down installation this would not be possible at all.

  To be able to answer what amount of the flooring can be salvaged and reused, we would need to know if the planks are tongue-and-groove or click system.

  On a click-system floating installation the plank would not normally require use of any glue, and most of the flooring can be salvaged. But, tongue-and-groove flooring is glued between the planks and none of the planks should be used after removal, because the residue of adhesive in the groove will prevent new planks to slot in properly.

  I guess approx. 70% of the flooring on click system plank can be reused if carefully disassembled, but this really depends on various factors.

  Subfloor preparation should be an essential part of a site survey and if proper assessment of the subfloor level is not possible (covered by another flooring or furniture), an initial indication of cost is always handy for the client.

• Do you install parquet flooring with reclaimed blocks?

  Installation of reclaimed parquet blocks, particularly those that have been previously fitted using black resin are very difficult to re-use and re-fit. Cleaning the black resin residue is difficult and time consuming and therefore it makes the whole process very expensive.

  As our fitting services come with service guarantee and we cannot be sure of the durability of reclaimed parquet blocks, we do not provide this service. Also, bear in mind that installation of reclaimed parquet flooring may not result in a smooth and uniform appearance which you get with new parquet blocks.

  Should you consider parquet floor installation of new, rather than reclaimed blocks, please do not hesitate to contact us and we would be delighted to help and provide a free quotation.

And Some Frequently Asked Questions...

• Can LVT be used with underfloor heating?

  Most LVT products are compatible with underfloor heating systems, but it's crucial to check the manufacturer's specific guidelines regarding maximum temperature limits (typically not exceeding 27-29°C) to prevent warping or damage.

• What is the main advantage of engineered flooring over solid wood?

  The primary advantage is its structural stability. The cross-layered core prevents the planks from expanding, contracting, or warping due to changes in temperature and humidity. This stability allows it to be installed without gluing or nailing-down, like the solid wood flooring and to be laid floating with underlay or insulation, or over underfloor heating.

• Can I have parquet flooring with underfloor heating?

  Yes, you can have parquet flooring with underfloor heating, but it's crucial to choose the right type of parquet and ensure correct installation. While solid wood parquet can be problematic due to its tendency to expand and contract significantly with temperature changes, engineered parquet flooring is specifically designed to be compatible with underfloor heating systems. Its multi-layered construction provides much greater stability, resisting warping and gapping caused by fluctuating temperatures.

  Laying parquet with underfloor heating requires glue-down installatio and key considerations include maintaining the correct surface temperature (typically not exceeding 27°C), ensuring the subfloor is properly prepared and dry.
