Goole Review - Colette Gallimore

For this project, we installed Urban laminate flooring from Furlong Flooring in the stunning Paris colour. The Urban laminate is a top-quality 8mm laminate known for its durability and modern aesthetics. With the market-leading Uniclic® click system. We fitted this laminate in the bedroom, lounge, and kitchen areas using high-quality underlay for added comfort and longevity.

Additionally, we fitted the stairs and landing with carpet from Furlong Flooring's Satisfaction Moods range in the elegant Seafret colour. This luxurious carpet, boasting a 14mm deep pile of Saxony fibres, adds a touch of opulence to the space while ensuring long-lasting durability.

Flooring for the Excalibur Ship in Holyhead

From lighthouses to hospitals and now flooring for a ship! The types of projects Oakwill work on can be very varied, and this one was no exception. The Oakwill team recently installed some vinyl flooring to The Fugro, Excalibur Ship which was docked in Holyhead.

Excalibur takes the crown as the biggest jack-up barge in Fugro's lineup, proudly meeting Germanischer Lloyd standards. Sporting eight legs, it can comfortably handle water depths up to 40 meters. It's been a go-to for setting up foundations in offshore wind farm projects and, another bonus, it even has an integral foundation drilling unit.

We were awarded the project by the fantastic Mod Pods Of Conwy and had the task of installing Vinyl flooring to their storage room.

The first task was to fill and smooth the ply joints using Ardex Feather Finish to get a perfect subfloor ready to install the Vinyl flooring. Once completed we then fitted Altro Walkway in the colour of ‘Streetlight’ - a great hard wearing and bright flooring perfect for a busy ship!

Oakwill Flooring - Installing Safety Vinyl Flooring Across North Wales

Oakwill Flooring is currently working on 15 blocks of flats across Bangor, Blaenau, and Caernarfon, installing vinyl flooring with nosings in communal staircases and hallways. We were awarded the projects by the fantastic Bell Group!

One of the communal blocks in Bangor recently received a new safety vinyl flooring system. The stairs required ply boarding, and the ground floor quarry tiles needed a DPM and screed preparation.

Once the surfaces were prepared, Oakwill Flooring fitted Altro walkway vinyl in the colour "dolphin" with Genesis stair nosings with black inserts and yellow inserts on the top and bottom steps for safety.

Altro walkway vinyl is a durable and easy-to-maintain flooring solution that is ideal for high-traffic areas such as communal staircases and hallways. It is also slip-resistant, making it a safe choice!

Genesis stair nosings are designed to improve safety and reduce the risk of slips and trips. They are made from a durable material and feature a textured surface for added grip. The black and yellow inserts on the top and bottom steps provide additional visual cues to help users navigate the stairs safely.

Oakwill Flooring are a leading provider of commercial and domestic flooring solutions and operate across North Wales, North West England and beyond. We have a team of experienced and qualified fitters who can install a wide range of flooring products, including vinyl, carpet, wood and laminate.

High-Quality Solid Wood Flooring for Mochdre Village Hall, North Wales

Another busy month for the Oakwill Flooring team and this time we feature a project we have completed in Mochdre, North Wales. Putting new wood flooring into a room can really transform a space. This flooring project in Mochdre Village hall was no exception . This time it was 150 square meters of beautiful solid oak boards which were pre finished with a hardwearing UV lacquered natural finish.

Old Damaged floor

Uplifting The Old Floor & Fixing The Subfloor

Uplifting the tired old flooring was our first big task, and like with any flooring project ensuring the sub floor is dry and structurally sound is a must. Firstly we had to repair the existing floorboards and when this was complete it was onto laying the underlay. To lay a solid wood floor it is crucial that the subfloor is not damp so to be extra sure we first laid a Serenity Underwood Stamina which is a rubber crumb underlay developed to enhance the performance of wood and laminate flooring by providing resilience, durability, moisture resistance, and superior impact sound insulation.

Fitting The Solid New Wood Floor

Then it was onto fitting the solid oak flooring. With the floor being laid on a cushioned underlay the floor was laid in a floating floor technique. A floating wood floor is a type of flooring installation method where the individual wood planks or boards are not directly attached to the subfloor or the floor beneath them. After setting out a line we began from one side of the room- We used Gorilla wood glue to fix the boards together on the tongue and grooves of the planks and clamped the first few rows to keep the boards nice and straight. Making sure all joints were together tightly and planks staggered we continued across the floor. We also allowed a 15mm expansion gap around the perimeter of the room to allow for expansion. I’m sure you’ll agree the final result was stunning!
