Engineered wood conservatory flooring in Catford
Fitting Engineered wood in a Catford conservatory isn't a like-for-like swap — it's a hot-in-summer, cold-in-winter glass box, so we plan around a rigid subfloor across the old dwarf wall. Most Catford homes we visit are edwardian terraces, and the subfloor beneath the old conservatory floor is rarely ready to receive a new one straight away. Engineered wood is one of the strongest choices for a conservatory — living rooms, dining rooms and hallways where the look of solid oak matters. Bellingham estate has chipboard upstairs (post-war spec); Edwardian terraces have pine boards.
