Jake and David wanted to add character and contemporary flair to their Georgian-style home in Lancashire. They had their hearts set on a pale oak floor and natural materials that would stand the test of time. Taking advantage of our free sample service, they compared lots of floors, before choosing the stunning Painswick Biscuit Engineered Oak.
Why did you choose Luxury Flooring?
We chose Luxury Flooring because they were competitive on price and we were really happy with the quality. We found that the free sample service really set Luxury Flooring apart from their competitors and the team were very friendly and responsive whenever we had any questions.
What was most important to you when designing your room?
The space had to be multifunctional in the sense that it would be a great room to relax and watch films at the weekend but also sociable for hosting guests, which we like to do often.
What’s your story?
We are currently in the process of renovating and extending our Georgian-style house in the Lancashire countryside. The aim of the renovation is to add character with a contemporary flare. We want to incorporate natural materials that will stand the test of time and be practical for day to day use.
What does your home situation look like?
We have a 2-year-old English Show Type Cocker Spaniel called Alfie.
How do you prepare your home before hosting?
We like to light the fire and lots of candles!
Which rooms do you use for hosting?
The living room is my main hosting room when family and friends come over, and it opens up onto the garden so it’s a nice easy room to use. I’m currently doing my garden up ready for hosting in the summer months.
What qualities were you looking for in your new flooring?
The colour of the flooring was really important to us. We wanted a pale oak colour that almost looked unfinished and in its most natural state. It was also important for the flooring to be durable and hardwearing.
Have you ever had a ‘panic moment’ with your floor? If so, how did you handle it?
When installing our floor we were not prepared for how quickly the flooring glue dries, so we put less down at any given time and worked quicker.
Have you used our Stock hold, Klarna or Price Match services?
We used the stock hold service to secure the flooring in one of the sales. This was a great service as we did not want to lose out on the promotion but due to the renovation, we were not quite ready to accept delivery.
What advice would you give to someone looking to transform their floor?
Order lots of samples. The flooring can look different depending on how much natural light you get.
How has your new floor transformed your home?
It has made the space feel more cohesive and in keeping of the Georgian-style as well as feeling more luxurious.
