For that warm, homely feel
Our highly sought-after Chestnut flooring boasts pale straw tones with the occasional rich chocolate undertones rippling through the boards. Attractive and inviting with an elegant grain pattern, it’ll create a warming ambience and blend harmoniously with its surroundings, including other wood types. Beauty lies in simplicity, and Chestnut flooring is often chosen for its timeless appeal in an array of settings, from busy family homes to modern work spaces. It’s often chosen as a subtle and light wood flooring choice as opposed to oak flooring, which can have more knots and character.
Our Chestnut flooring is fully compatible with underfloor heating, as are our other solid wood floors.
We don’t use any glues or chemicals in your flooring offering you a 100% natural Chestnut flooring choice.

What's your recommended laying technique?
We suggest face fixing the boards (due to their wide width) using a special screw we can tell you all about. It’s a small screw with a nail-like appearance. There are other methods of laying that we can discuss further.
How do I finish Chestnut wood flooring?
90% of our customers use a sander on the flooring once laid to reduce any planer marks seen in some lights. We also recommend adding a finish – we can help you choose the best one for your project.
Is it suitable for kitchens & bathrooms?
Yes, you can lay all our hardwood flooring in kitchens & bathrooms, but we recommend applying an extra layer of your chosen finish. Just clear up any water spills, as with any flooring.
What widths are available?
Our most standard method of producing your Heritage Oak flooring is with mixed widths, where we include approximately 4 (sometimes more or less depending on the size of the order) different widths.
All boards are in 1″ increments between 125mm and 300mm, and we include an approximately equal sqm proportion of each size. Unless specified otherwise, we always put in one of our widest sizes (250mm+).
We can machine to one set size between this range, but it is at an additional cost to our standard price.
Is Chestnut flooring compatible with underfloor heating?
Yes. Approximately 75% of our customers fit our flooring over underfloor heating systems, and it’s one of our specialities. We favour this method of constant low-level heating rather than a concentrated radiator intensely heating only one area of the room.
