We supply and install premium solid and engineered wood flooring tailored to residential and commercial spaces. Our options include character-grade oak, rustic finishes, and bespoke patterns like herringbone and Versailles. Each project includes expert guidance on material selection, underfloor heating compatibility, and long-term maintenance to ensure durability and aesthetic appeal.
Garden Furniture Restoration
Our restoration service rejuvenates teak, stainless steel, aluminium, and textilene garden furniture. We strip, clean, and refinish pieces to restore their original condition, extending their lifespan. This service caters to both domestic and commercial clients seeking to maintain high-quality outdoor furniture with minimal environmental impact.

We design and construct custom hardwood gates using durable materials like oak and iroko. Each gate is crafted to match property aesthetics while ensuring security and longevity. Installation includes precise fitting and finishing touches such as staining or waxing to enhance natural wood characteristics and weather resistance.

As members of the Contract Flooring Association, we provide inspections, reports, and solutions for domestic and commercial projects, ensuring compliance with industry standards and preventing costly errors during installation or renovation.
