Ann Cromack at iKat photography (Product and Interior Photography takes all the photos for Fairlie Furniture. She sent us over these ones from her own house, as Kenny and the team were at her house laying solid oak flooring in the kitchen and hall. And a lovely job they made, as you’d expect.
You might think that laying a hardwood floor isn’t the type of thing you’d fine fine craftsmen and cabinet makers doing. You’d be right, we don’t do a huge amount of it. However, that said – whilst laying the middle of the floor is pretty much donkey work, there are plenty of wood related challenges going on to get the 5* finish around the tricky bits at the edge. The hearth, the door skirting (architrave), gates, steps etc etc. Every big house, or older house, will have some features that make the job a bit tricky, in this case there was a hatch in the floor that needed handling with care.
We sell hardwood flooring and there is a section of the showroom with a selection of samples of flooring with a huge variety of different woods and finishes. Solid hardwood as well as engineered boards. We’ll give you the benefit of our expertise and advise on the most appropriate products for you to use.
