Plumstead home offices — fitted with Engineered wood
The home office in a victorian and edwardian terrace sees more traffic than people think, and SE18 is no different. We fit Engineered wood across Plumstead every month — mostly in Victorian and Edwardian terraces with post-war infill-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 home office — living rooms, dining rooms and hallways where the look of solid oak matters.
