Onoff 3,007 Posted October 3, 2018 Anyone recommend a source for 18mm solid oak flooring similar to this price: https://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-Medina-Oak-Solid-Wood-Flooring/p/138980 Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AliG 408 Posted October 3, 2018 I got my walnut from here and it was the nicest quality I could get for the price, a lot of lower priced stuff looked cheap when we got samples. I would definitely recommend samples. https://www.luxuryflooringandfurnishings.co.uk/solid-wood-flooring.html?dir=asc&order=catalog_as_low_as But you'd have a hard job matching £16.74 a square metre. Most places are more like £25-30 a metre for single strip oak at a minimum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Temp 506 Posted October 3, 2018 Strange isn't it. It's a "store only" product but few places have more than 1 or 2 packs. Nearest I could find on their web site were: EDMONTON EXTRA 8 packs DARTFORD 5 packs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do Wickes have a location where their odds and ends get sent? I think for B&Q it is somewhere like Scunthorpe. If thee are 5 in Dartford it might be good for @Onoff.

I'll let the rellie who's just done their floor know. They were on about maybe extending a bit further. The reason I asked for alternatives to Wickes was for a mate who missed the boat on the Wickes stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was a TP version that was very similar (same parent co etc) but seems to be out of stock too. The Wickes one was part of their promo a couple of months back which was primarily I expect to clear the stock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
