Just curious what you are trying to do. Is it to replace some existing floorboards and use what you have? or is it to lay over the top of existing floor?


Reason I ask is, it's quite expensive. About £40+ (+vat) a square meter and fitting is much more expensive than say fitting a new floor as they still need sanded, stained and varnished. I doubt you'll be able to replace of an existing floor and tie it all in.


I used Wilson Yard for a reclaimed oak floor. Great product, but seriously expensive when include fitting. I needed 2 coats of stain and varnish plus 3 days sanding.

I need a few floorboards replaced as they are damaged. I've been to a builders merchants, but they don't keep the correct width. They are 1930s boards so they must have used a different width of board then. The floor will be covered with lino.

Try somewhere more local in that case. Or just get a saw mill to cut you some pieces to size. I had to do that for parts of my staircase.
