Engineered Oak Flooring from Hackworth Sawmill

Oak Engineered Board – Single Strip

Engineered board oak flooring is 21 mm thick including a 6 mm character grade oak surface mounted onto a 10 layer hardwood ply backing. Our oak engineered board comes in mixed lengths from about 1 metre up to possibly 2.7 metres (60% of boards are 1.8 metres and above), tongued and grooved on all four sides. It is available in widths of 140, 160, 180 and 200 mm, either un-finished, or pre-finished with a hard wax/oil satin polish.

Un-finished

Pre-finished

Our 21 mm engineered oak is extremely stable and is suitable for installation over under-floor heating and in many other situations where moisture levels can fluctuate (see case study). It can be glued to an existing sub-floor such as concrete, nailed or screwed, or fitted as a floating floor.
We can also supply other options in engineered oak flooring, for example
Unfinished (or oiled) natural grade single plank engineered oak, ply backing, 22 mm by 189 or 220 mm
Pre-finished 18 mm by 127 mm
Natural grade single plank oak board flooring, core backing, 14 mm by 148 mm by 1830 mm either lacquered or oiled
Natural grade single plank oak board flooring 15 mm by 189 mm by 1830 mm either lacquered or oiled
Knotty grade single plank oak board flooring 15 mm by 189 mm by 1830 mm either unfinished or oiled.
What are the benefits of engineered flooring compared with solid? All things being equal, an engineered floor offers greater stability than the solid equivalent, particularly if the former has a ply backing, which means that it is a safer bet if fitting over underfloor heating or in e.g.a conservatory. In normal domestic situations oak engineered flooring also has the benefit of being suitable for installation as a floating floor. Once fitted, a single plank oak engineered board looks exactly the same as solid wood flooring.
