Catford hallways — fitted with Engineered wood
The hallway in a edwardian terrace sees more traffic than people think, and SE6 is no different. We fit Engineered wood across Catford every month — mostly in Edwardian terraces, 1930s Bellingham estate semis and ex-council flats-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.
