Abbey Wood hallways — fitted with Engineered wood
The hallway in a post-2018 new-build apartment sees more traffic than people think, and SE2 is no different. We fit Engineered wood across Abbey Wood every month — mostly in Post-2018 Elizabeth-line new-builds plus 1960s ex-council terraces-era stock — and the job is 60% preparation. Once the subfloor is right, Engineered wood goes down cleanly and reads square to the room. Engineered wood is one of the strongest choices for a hallway — living rooms, dining rooms and hallways where the look of solid oak matters.
