Technical spec

The Glanwell Engineered White Distressed Oak Oiled is a 15mm engineered oak floor with a 4mm wear layer, designed for homes that want a lighter wood floor with extra texture and character. The white tones help brighten the room, while the distressed surface gives the floor a softer, more lived-in appearance from the moment it’s installed. The engineered core also helps reduce movement caused by changes in temperature and humidity, making it suitable for water-based underfloor heating.

Each board is 220mm wide, which is noticeably wider than standard planks. This reduces the number of joins across the floor and helps create a cleaner, more spacious appearance once fitted. The wider format works particularly well in open-plan spaces and larger rooms where you want the flooring to feel less busy.

The surface is distressed and oiled. The distressing adds subtle texture and variation across the boards, creating a more relaxed and aged appearance. The oiled finish enhances the natural grain and lighter oak tones without adding a thick surface coating, helping the floor retain a more natural feel overall.

This is mixed grade oak, so you’ll see knots, grain variation, and tonal differences between boards. These natural details work well with the distressed finish, adding extra depth and helping the floor avoid looking too uniform once installed.

Boards are supplied in mixed lengths, which helps create a more natural layout across the floor and avoids a repeated pattern once fitted.

The 4mm solid oak wear layer allows the floor to be sanded and refinished up to three times. In most homes, this won’t be needed for at least 10 to 15 years, but it gives the floor good long-term flexibility. Combined with the 15mm thickness and engineered multi-ply construction, it provides a stable and durable structure for everyday use.

Installation uses a tongue and groove system, with boards designed to be glued together. It’s typically installed as a floating floor over a 3mm underlay, which helps improve insulation and reduce noise. When installing over water-based underfloor heating, a 4mm compressed rubber underlay is recommended, with a maximum surface temperature of 27°C.

Because this is an oiled wood floor, the surface is not fully sealed. Spills should be wiped up promptly to prevent marking, and it’s not suitable for bathrooms or areas with standing water. The distressed texture also helps soften the appearance of small scratches and everyday wear over time.

When ordering, allow around 10% extra for wastage and cuts, plus an additional 5% to account for natural variation in grading.

We like the Glanwell White Distressed Oak Oiled because it combines lighter tones with a more relaxed, time-worn texture. It brightens the room while still feeling warm and natural underfoot.
