Product Details

Key Features

  • 150mm wide boards create a balanced and versatile floor layout

  • Grey limed oak colouring offers a contemporary look with enhanced grain definition

  • Brushed and oiled finish highlights the natural texture of the wood

  • 18mm overall thickness provides excellent durability and a solid feel underfoot

  • 4mm solid oak wear layer allows sanding and refinishing up to three times

  • Engineered construction improves stability in changing temperature and humidity conditions

The Hillingdon Engineered Grey Limed Oak Brushed and Oiled flooring combines deep grey oak tones with a limed finish that enhances the natural texture of the wood grain. The result is a contemporary floor with plenty of depth and character, while still showcasing the beauty of real oak.

Each board measures 150mm wide, creating a balanced floor layout that suits both traditional and modern interiors. The plank width allows the natural grain patterns and limed detailing to stand out while maintaining a classic wood floor appearance.

The surface is finished using a combination of brushing and oiling. Brushing removes some of the softer grain from the oak, creating a lightly textured surface that highlights the wood's natural grain. The oil finish enriches the appearance of the timber while maintaining a natural feel, allowing the limed effect to remain a prominent feature.

This is mixed grade oak, meaning natural knots, grain variation, and colour differences are all part of the floor's appearance. These characteristics ensure every installation has its own unique look while preserving the authentic beauty of real wood.

The floor is manufactured using an engineered multi-layer construction, designed to provide greater stability than solid wood flooring. This helps minimise movement caused by fluctuations in temperature and humidity, making the flooring suitable for most rooms throughout the home, including conservatories. It is also suitable for use with water-based underfloor heating systems, although bathrooms and areas exposed to standing moisture should be avoided.

With an 18mm overall thickness and a 4mm solid oak wear layer, the flooring offers a reassuringly solid feel underfoot. The wear layer allows the floor to be sanded and refinished up to three times during its lifespan, providing excellent long-term flexibility. In most domestic homes, refinishing is unlikely to be required for many years.

Installation uses a tongue and groove fitting system, with boards designed to be glued together and typically installed as a floating floor. A suitable underlay should be fitted beneath the flooring to help improve sound insulation, heat retention, and protection against minor subfloor moisture. For installations over water-based underfloor heating, a 4mm compressed rubber underlay is recommended.

Boards are supplied in mixed lengths, helping to create a more natural and varied floor layout throughout the room.

As this flooring features an oiled finish, the surface is not completely impermeable and may not be the best choice for areas where spillages are common. However, the finish beautifully enhances the natural grain and texture of the oak while preserving its authentic appearance.

The combination of rich grey limed colouring, textured grain, and engineered stability makes this flooring an excellent choice for homeowners looking to create a stylish and characterful interior with the timeless appeal of real oak.

When ordering, allow approximately 10% extra for cuts and wastage, plus an additional 5% for natural grading variation.

Customer Questions
What is engineered wood flooring?
Engineered wood is real wood on top, with stable layers beneath.
Do I need to acclimatise my wood flooring before fitting?
Yes, you must acclimatise your wood flooring before installation. For engineered wood, allow 48–72 hours; for solid wood, give it at least 7 days. Keep the packs flat, unopened, and in a room with stable conditions.
Can I install wood flooring over underfloor heating?
Yes, you can install wood flooring over underfloor heating—but it must be a water-based system. Never use electric underfloor heating with wood flooring, as it can overheat and damage the boards.
Do I need expansion gaps when fitting wood flooring?
Yes, always leave an expansion gap of 10–15mm around the perimeter of your wood flooring. This allows the wood to expand and contract naturally with changes in temperature and humidity.
Can engineered wood flooring be sanded?
Yes, engineered wood flooring can be sanded, but only if the top wear layer is thick enough—usually at least 3mm. Thinner layers may not allow for sanding without damage.
