We machine our floorboards with a tongue and groove profile on all four sides, which means at 19 / 20mm thickness they can be used structurally. Our engineered wood floors are both beautiful and practical - for use with all under floor heating systems. A deep 5mm / 6mm solid hardwood wear-layer gives our flooring the longevity of solid wood flooring, with many decades worth and more of sanding.
British Manufacturing At Its Finest

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 choose to have your flooring stained / pre-finished, it will be completely ready-to-lay. All of our bespoke wooden floors are made to order, which usually takes between four and six weeks.
Your Floor, Your Way
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.

Pride in production and respect for our clients, means that we will not compromise on quality and delivery in the name of profit. Moreover as UK manufacturer and wholesaler, all of our engineered wooden floors are supplied at manufacturer's prices. With every beautiful engineered wood floor a showroom, we have no need for a high-street presence and pass this saving on to you.
Douglas Fir Flooring - Residence Interior Design
Quintessentially we are a very British family business with a heritage in design and a passion for production. We started off producing solid hardwood flooring and parquet in the 1980's & 90's, then spearheaded the UK manufacture of engineered wood flooring twenty five years ago. We were extremely proud to be invited to represent British Manufacturing, by featuring in the 2018 Parliamentary Review.

Help & Advice
A wooden floor is arguably the biggest piece of furniture within an interior. Selecting an engineered wood floor can be a daunting process. Technical advice and help however is freely available from our experts, as opposed to a sales pitch.
Firstly make your selections based on the look & feel you are after, then ascertain the suitability of the timber / finish to your project. Collecting 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 over 6 months - putting us out of production and almost business.
The images below 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. Thankfully this terrible situation and the devastation caused is a distant nightmare now.
Before the floods - entrance to our factory street view
After the flooding - entrance to our factory (lakeside).
The Wicker Basket Company sadly 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.
From the disaster emerged an amazing sense of community spirit, unexpected support & friendships for life were made.
Matilda Temperley captured the devastatian in her eerily beautiful photography book - Under The Surface documenting our community’s account of the 2014 floods and their legacy.
Glastonbury Festival founder - Michael Eavis, amongst others, including our family and local farmers collectively spoke out, campaigned and harnessed the power of the media. The media then descended on Burrowbridge and publicised the misery & devastation. This collective community action was the catalyst that kick-started the government to finally respond with action.
