Reclaimed Oak Flooring

So....... We have been pretty busy over the last month. Lots of new projects, big orders and a very busy workshop.

 

Here's a few pics of one of those projects...... 90 m2 of reclaimed Oak flooring fitted in a new build house on the coast near Zadar.

The timber was reclaimed from a 120 year old house on the banks Sava river near Ivanic Grad. We dismantled the house, sorted, kiln dried the timber then machined it down to produce these stunning and pretty unique boards.

 

The flooring is 22mm thick with a 165mm face and in random lengths. Square edged and sanded flat once installed to produce a perfectly flat, uniform floor.

 

Finished with Osmo PolyX satin hard wax oil, a stunning natural finish that really highlights the reclaimed character without the usual obvious and heavy finished look.

 

We also produced and fitted bespoke skirting to match.

 

We are pretty pleased with it..... it was pretty hard work fitting in the 38 degree heatwave though!

Quality work.

 

Out of interest, how slippery is the floor after finishing with the hard wax oil? The shine looks good, but wouldn't want to be skating everywhere on it!

 

We've got an oak floor finished with polyX satin and its not too slippery. Great finish as it seems to polish up with the hoover. Been down about 5 years now and I am going to give it another coat as its lost its shine in the heavy traffic areas.
