Engineered wood for the hallway, New Eltham
You'll find Engineered wood in a lot of New Eltham hallways these days, and there's a reason: genuine hardwood top layer over a plywood or HDF base — oak, walnut, smoked. In SE9 1930s bay-fronted semis, the tricky part is usually scuffs against the skirting, 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 is one of the strongest choices for a hallway — living rooms, dining rooms and hallways where the look of solid oak matters.
