Coffee Engineered Wood Flooring FAQ's

What is Coffee Engineered Wood Flooring?

Our coffee engineered wood flooring is made from real wood, such as oak or walnut with a multi-layered construction for an affordable, yet durable flooring solution. These layers include a top layer (known as the wear layer), a core layer which makes up the majority of the board, and a backing layer. The wear layer is made entirely of hardwood and is what gives the floor its unique aesthetic. It’s also the layer where the coffee staining is applied to give it a rich and luxurious colour. Meanwhile, the core layer, usually comprised of plywood, adds stability to the flooring to help prevent expansion and contraction. Finally, the backing layer creates a separation between your subfloor and floorboards to help balance the construction and prevent cupping. Overall, this unique design has won the hearts of many thanks to its expanded lifespan and beautiful aesthetic.

Does Engineered Wood Flooring Scratch Easily?

All wood flooring, regardless of whether it's solid wood or engineered can be susceptible to scratches. However, most engineered wood flooring has a lifespan of 10-20 years when cared for correctly. For more information on how to correctly care for your coffee engineered wood flooring, visit our maintenance guide.

If you do manage to damage your flooring, don’t panic. You can sand and refinish most engineered wood floors to give them a new lease of life. Find out more in our guide to sanding and refinishing engineered wood floors.

Is Engineered Wood Flooring Waterproof?

No, our coffee engineered wood flooring is made from real wood, so it is not waterproof. Therefore, we suggest cleaning spillages within 2-3 hours to avoid warping or discolouration. Lacquer finishes can provide some water resistance, making engineered wood flooring suitable for kitchens. However, this will not make the flooring waterproof. For a fully waterproof floor, we suggest taking a look at our luxury vinyl tiles, which are 100% waterproof and ideal for bathrooms.

How To Clean A Coffee Stained Floor

Like with all of our engineered wood floors, you can quickly and easily clean them by regularly sweeping and occasionally mopping. However, due to the nature of wood, we do suggest that you use a minimal amount of water, and do not leave water sitting for extended periods. For more information on how to properly care for your coffee engineered wood flooring, please visit our maintenance centre.

How Long Does Engineered Wood Flooring Need to Acclimatise?

Our coffee engineered wood flooring should be acclimatised for a minimum of 48 hours before installation. This allows the boards to adjust to the temperature and humidity levels of your home and allows for a successful installation.

Coffee Engineered Wood Flooring Finishes & Treatments

Brushed

A brushed finish is perfect if you want a slight texture to your flooring. Brushed finishes help enhance the natural character of the floor by gently brushing it with a steel comb. This removes the soft grains of the wood and leaves behind only the hard grains. You can then treat the flooring with oil or lacquer.

Distressed

Distressed finishes fully embrace the 'imperfections' of an antique floor with an array of bumps and scrapes, as well as emphasized knots and grains. These pronounced features are ideal for those wanting a more rustic interior, particularly when paired with our coffee engineered wood flooring.

Lacquered

Lacquer is a varnish that dries to produce a hard, durable finish and acts as an additional wear layer. This makes it a popular choice for many, but particularly ideal for areas with higher foot traffic. Lacquer is available in gloss, matt, or satin matt finishes and can be clear or coloured.

Oiled

Oil seeps into the wood and maintains the surface texture of wood flooring while providing some resistance to damage. However, it does not protect the flooring in the same way that lacquer does because it does not sit on the surface. Oiled flooring will require more maintenance and care over spillages because of this.

Engineered Wood Flooring Thickness

Board Thickness

If you plan on resanding and refinishing your flooring in the future then you may want to opt for thicker boards with a thicker veneer. This will allow you more opportunities to do so as only the veneer (aka the wear layer) can be sanded down. Thicker boards are also more hard wearing and provide a slightly improved sound reduction performance, making them ideal for upstairs apartments or bedrooms. As well as this, thicker boards are usually more suited to higher traffic areas, where they can withstand greater use. However, they are often more expensive to show for this, so ultimately it comes down to budget and personal preference.

Engineered Wood Flooring & Underfloor Heating

If you're using a water-based underfloor heating system, it's important that your flooring isn't too thick to prevent transfer of heat into the room. We recommend using flooring with a maximum board thickness of 15MM with 4/4.5MM Underfloor Heating Suitable Underlay.

Wood Species

Oak

Oak is the most popular choice when it comes to wood flooring, and our coffee oak engineered wood flooring is no exception. Engineered oak flooring offers the exact appearance of a hardwood oak floor, thanks to the veneer layer of solid wood. Our oak engineered flooring can cope with heat, humidity, and heavy foot traffic much better than your average oak floor. Whether you prefer red or white oak, our engineered oak flooring range offers plenty of choice with a huge range of products available in various finishes. Oak floors also have a much tighter grain variation, resulting in less difference in grains and texture between each board. If this is something that appeals to you, then you should consider looking at our prime-grade oak flooring options too.

Walnut

Walnut is the less popular option of the two and this is mostly because it's a rarer product that is harder to source and therefore more expensive to buy. However, for those seeking a luxurious touch to their flooring design, our engineered walnut floors are the perfect choice. With a rich and elegant appearance, walnut flooring is ideal for grand entrances and large living rooms. Walnut flooring features vibrant colours and wider grains compared to oak, giving it a unique and striking character. However, walnut floors do tend to have more variation from plank to plank, so if you're looking for a more uniform appearance, then walnut floors may not be for you.

Wear Layer

The wear layer refers to the top, aesthetic surface layer of real wood, which gives the engineered flooring its look. Thicker wear layers offer greater durability and the option to sand more frequently.

Most engineered wood floors, regardless of the thickness of the wear layer, will provide years of use, maintaining their impressive appearance.

Sanding Guide

In most cases, sanding the top layer of engineered wood flooring will remove up to 1MM of surface, with a minimum of 1MM leftover for protection. As a rough guide, here’s the number of times a floor can be sanded, based on the initial wear layer thickness:

3mm: 1-2 times

4mm: 2-3 times

5mm: 3-4 times

6mm: 4-5 times

(Please note: Sanding times is a guide only, the number of times a floor can be sanded will vary on an individual basis.)

Engineered Wood Flooring Installation Methods

Tongue & Groove

Tongue and groove is the most common method among engineered wood flooring; compatible boards fit together and hold in place with glue. The glue means tongue and groove flooring is free of nails, making it visually appealing and safe to walk barefoot.

Click System

Click Lok flooring has a profiled edge which creates a glue-free, interlocking fitting system. Simply, push, drop, click, and lock the boards into place for a sturdy floor installation. This method is often perfect for DIY enthusiasts.

Floating Floor

You can install tongue and groove flooring onto a layer of underlay as a floating floor. Underlay has many benefits, such as providing sound dampening and protecting your flooring from moisture and temperature changes.

Glue Installation

If you have a suitable subfloor (flat and sturdy surface such as concrete with a damp-proof membrane), you can glue your flooring to it with a strong adhesive. Glued installation creates a very stable and sturdy floor, especially with thick boards, such as 20mm wood flooring.
