Engineered wood for the bathroom, Mottingham
You'll find Engineered wood in a lot of Mottingham bathrooms these days, and there's a reason: genuine hardwood top layer over a plywood or HDF base — oak, walnut, smoked. In SE9/BR7 1920s cottage-estate terraces, the tricky part is usually waterproof-to-the-edge finish, and that's what a proper survey deals with before any material is ordered. We're the A20, so a same-week visit is the norm. Engineered wood to a bathroom is a specialist install — done carefully it looks brilliant, but it's not the default choice, and we'll be honest about that on the site visit.
