Solid Oak Flooring

The Blamphayne Range and Buckingham Range are two distinct types of solid oak flooring products, both featuring a tongue and groove profile and available in unfinished lengths. The Blamphayne Range is characterized by 20mm solid T&G oak stock with squared edges, offering an average length of 2.0m, with loose lengths also available to provide flexibility for installers. In contrast, the Buckingham Range boasts 20mm solid European oak with micro-beveled edges on two sides, providing a more refined finish. The lengths of the Buckingham Range vary from 800mm to 2200mm, catering to a range of installation needs.
Both ranges are suitable for use with all-over adhesion and gun-grade adhesives, ensuring a strong and durable bond between the flooring and subfloor. The Blamphayne Range and Buckingham Range can be found in various grades, each with its own unique characteristics. The grading system takes into account the appearance of the wood, including:
Prime: Attractive grain, sound knots up to 20mm (20p piece), with a maximum of 2 knots per linear meter of board.
Character: Attractive grain, sound knots up to 40mm on face, occasional clusters of small knots (cats paw), some filling may be required, good ratio of prime quality boards.
Rustic: As character grade but with a higher percentage of larger knots and natural characteristics, some additional filling may also be required.
In addition to these grades, the ranges also include Standard Flooring A&B, C, D, Classic Oak, Cottage Oak, and Rustic Oak grades. Standard Flooring A&B has a graded face allowing slight to medium color variation, live knots below 20mm, dead knots below 5mm, dark/black streaks about 3mm x 5mm. Sap content is limited to 10% of the face area. Standard Flooring C has a graded face allowing a natural color variation, live knots allowed, dead knots below 15mm, dark/black streaks 5mm x 10mm, putty filler may be used as long as the color is similar to the overall tone of the wood. Sap content is limited to 20% of the face area. Standard Flooring D is similar to C grade but with knots up to 40mm and up to 30% sap across the face area.
These diverse options allow for a range of aesthetic choices to suit different design preferences and installation requirements. Whether you prefer a more refined look or a more rustic charm, the Blamphayne Range and Buckingham Range offer high-quality solid oak flooring solutions that meet your needs.
