Project Overview
This project involved the professional installation of engineered wood flooring at a property in W9, London. The client required a quality floor that would stand up to daily use and complement their interior. Our fitting team assessed the subfloor condition, carried out any necessary preparation work, and fitted the new floor to a high standard.
Before the Work
Prior to installation, the existing floor covering was inspected and the subfloor was prepared to ensure it was flat, dry, and suitable for the new engineered wood. Any existing floor covering was lifted and disposed of cleanly before the fitting work began.

Our Approach
The following services were carried out as part of this project:
- Beading Installation (excl. materials)
- Door Frame Trimming
- Doors Plus Frame Trimming (per door)
- Engineered Flooring Installation
- Subfloor Preparation (ply 9 mm)
The Result
The completed engineered wood installation looked clean and finished throughout. Joins are tight, edges are neat, and the floor sits flat and stable. Beading and threshold strips were fitted where required to complete the job properly. The client was pleased with both the quality of the work and the appearance of the new floor.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does engineered wood installation take?
Most fitting jobs are completed within one to two days. Larger areas or more detailed layouts, such as herringbone patterns, take longer due to the additional cutting and positioning involved.
Do I need an underlay?
Yes, underlay is required for most floor types and helps with insulation, sound deadening, and levelling minor subfloor imperfections. We can supply and fit an appropriate underlay as part of the installation.
How much does floor fitting cost in London?
Fitting costs typically range from £35 to £60 per square metre, depending on floor type and complexity. We provide a full written quote before starting any work.
