Installing a wood floor is a craft — one best entrusted to a professional. To ensure your floor looks and performs beautifully for years to come, we recommend using an experienced flooring fitter. You’ll find everything you need to know about installation and ongoing care in our detailed installation guides, available [here].

Caring for your wood floor is simple — and the right approach will keep it looking beautiful for decades. Regular maintenance and the correct cleaning products are key. We recommend sweeping or vacuuming your floor frequently to remove dust and grit that can cause surface wear. Use a soft brush attachment and avoid harsh bristles. For deeper cleaning, use a specialist wood floor cleaner that’s designed to protect the finish and preserve the natural character of the wood. It’s important to avoid excess water or household detergents, as these can damage the surface and dull the appearance over time. Instead, use a lightly dampened mop and always dry the floor afterwards. To further protect your floor, place felt pads under furniture, use protective mats at entrances, and maintain a stable indoor climate to minimise natural movement in the wood. With the right care, your floor will not only last for generations but also age gracefully — developing a rich patina that tells the story of your space.

Sustainability has been at the heart of everything we do since the very beginning. Reclaimed and antique timber is a sustainable choice, giving new life to wood that might otherwise go to waste. By repurposing aged timber, we reduce the demand for newly felled trees, lower carbon emissions, and preserve the natural character and rich patina of each piece. Choosing reclaimed wood not only supports responsible forestry practices but also adds unique warmth, history, and authenticity to any interior. Newly sourced timber, when responsibly harvested, is a sustainable choice. Using FSC® or PEFC-certified wood supports responsible forestry, helping protect forests while providing durable, high-quality flooring for years to come. While many companies charge extra for certification, we include it as standard — a reflection of our unwavering commitment to a healthier planet for generations to come. When you choose one of our products, you’re not only investing in timeless design and craftsmanship — you’re making a choice that helps protect the world’s forests and keeps your spaces healthy from the inside out.
