The Ultimate Flooring Company are based in Richmond, Surrey but the addition of an online store to our website means you can order solid hardwood flooring from any location in the UK. This allows us to remain competitive and you will always find offers on our hardwood floors.

Solid hardwood flooring comes in three types and each one is available finished or unfinished. Unfinished floors have to be sanded at the job-site and only finished once the installation process is complete. A finished hardwood floor will arrive having already been sanded and finished at the factory, requiring only installation at the job site. The three types of solid hardwood flooring are strip flooring, plank flooring and parquet flooring.

Strip flooring is categorised by the thickness of the wood planks. Each plank has a set width of either 1.5 inches, 2 inches and 2.25 inches but with strip flooring the thickness varies between 5/16 of an inch to 3/4 of an inch. Plank flooring is the opposite in that its plank thickness is limited to either 0.5 inch or 0.75 inch, and its width is more varied, ranging anywhere between 3 and 8 inches. Parquet flooring differs in that each section is held together by adhesive or other fastening device and they are made up of geometrically patterned individual wood slats.
