Engineered wood for the kitchen, Greenwich
You'll find Engineered wood in a lot of Greenwich kitchens these days, and there's a reason: genuine hardwood top layer over a plywood or HDF base — oak, walnut, smoked. In SE10/SE3 georgian and victorian period homes, the tricky part is usually matching an existing kickboard line, and that's what a proper survey deals with before any material is ordered. We're the A2 and Blackwall Tunnel approach, so a same-week visit is the norm. Engineered wood to a kitchen is a specialist install — done carefully it looks brilliant, but it's not the default choice, and we'll be honest about that on the site visit.
