All of our engineered wooden floors are both beautiful and practical - for use with all under floor heating systems. We machine our floorboards with a tongue and groove profile on all four edges, which means at 19 / 20mm thickness they can be used structurally too. A deep 5mm / 6mm solid hardwood wear-layer gives our flooring the lifetime and longevity of traditional solid wood flooring, with many decades worth and more of sanding.
British Manufacturing At Its Finest
Band Sawn Natural White Ash Engineered Flooring - Textured. Stunning coastal style in Jersey
Top-quality, single-strip, wide-plank floorboards in luxuriously long lengths up to 3.5m. The deep hardwood top-layer is backed by the highest quality Russian Birch Plywood, reknowned for its superior stability and quality. If you opt to have your flooring stained and pre-finished / UV oiled it will be ready-to-lay requiring no further finishing. All of our bespoke wooden floors are made to order, which usually takes between four and six weeks.

Our aim is to take your vision and make it happen. You choose the timber, floorboard profile, width, stain, finish and texture. Lavish talk and over-promising on lead-times is simply not our style. We manufacture high-quality, beautiful bespoke engineered wooden floors, to individual specifications and time-frames. All of our timber is sustainably sourced and as locally as possible.

Having produced firstly solid hard wood flooring and parquet flooring in the 1980's and 1990's, we spearheaded the British manufacture of engineered wood flooring over twenty years ago.

British Bespoke Manufacturer
Over twenty years ago, we responded to the need for beautiful yet stable wide-plank hardwood flooring, by initiating the manufacture of British made engineered wood flooring. We select both the finest timbers for the solid hardwood top-layer and the highest quality Birch Plywood substrate. We then engineer and precision machine our wide-plank engineered wood flooring for unrivalled beauty, stability and performance.

Help & Advice
An engineered wooden floor is arguably the biggest piece of furniture within an interior. Selecting a wooden floor can be an immense decision and daunting process. Technical advice and help is always available from our experts, as opposed to a sales pitch on our competitively priced products .
Firstly make your selections based on the look & feel you are after and then ascertain the suitability of the timber / finish to your project. Collecting some inspiration is always a great starting point... check out our pin boards on Pinterest or browse our Instagram gallery and Houzz.

2014 Flooding on The Somerset Levels
In 2014 we became synonomous with the floods that devastated the Somerset levels. Over 60 square miles of Somerset were flooded, leaving our factory under 10 feet of water for nearly 6 months putting us out of production and almost business.
The images below of before and after the flooding of our factory, went viral at the time! In the 6 months that we were flooded our amazing team stood by us and helped (unpaid) to dredge out, clean up and rebuild. We thankfully recovered from this terrible situation and the devastation caused is a distant nightmare.
Before the floods - entrance to our factory street view
After the flooding - entrance to our factory (lakeside).
The Wicker Basket Company unfortunately relocated their business after seventy years of trading....but we were so very happy to welcome them home in 2019 back to their original site.
Every cloud has a silver lining and from the disaster emerged an amazing sense of community spirit, unexpected support, friendships for life were made.... Matilda Temperley documented the devastatian beautifully in black and white photographs. Her eerily beautiful photography book - Under The Surface documents our community’s account of the 2014 floods and their legacy. Glastonbury Festival founder - Michael Eavis, amongst others, including our family, plus Bryony & Gav Sadler - local farmers collectively spoke out, campaigned and harnessed the power of the media. The media descended on Burrowbridge and publicised the misery & devastation that was caused. This collective community action was the catalyst that kick-started the government and relative agencies to finally respond with action.
