Narrow Strip Flooring
Real Solid Hardwood

Create a Real Wood Floor That Feels Right at Home

Strip flooring offers a practical way to bring warmth, character and natural detail into your home. The narrower board format creates a traditional hardwood appearance, making it a strong choice for a floor that feels elegant, familiar and easy to live with.

If you want a classic look, solid oak strip flooring offers natural grain, warmth and long-term appeal. For a lighter, cleaner finish, maple can help brighten the room and create a softer contemporary feel. Lower-profile boards can also be useful for replacement projects where floor height, doors or thresholds need careful consideration.

Many options are supplied unfinished or pre-sanded, giving you greater control over the final colour, sheen and protection. Your floor can therefore be finished to complement your walls, furniture, lighting and everyday use.

Narrow Strip Flooring FAQs

Will narrow wooden flooring make my room look too busy?

No, not when the right timber and grade are chosen. Prime and select grades create a cleaner, more refined look, while natural grades add visible grain, knots and character.

Can I use narrow strip flooring to replace an existing floor?

Yes. Some narrow strip flooring options are well suited to replacement projects, especially lower-profile boards that help reduce the rise in floor level. This can be important around doors, thresholds and adjoining rooms.

Will I need to finish the flooring after installation?

Yes. Many narrow wooden flooring products are supplied unfinished or pre-sanded, so they need to be sanded, sealed, oiled, lacquered or stained after fitting. This gives you greater control over the final colour and protection.

Can I fit this flooring myself?

Experienced DIYers may be able to fit some products, but professional installation is often the safer choice. Solid wood flooring requires suitable subfloor preparation, the correct fitting method and proper finishing.

Do I need to allow extra flooring for cuts and wastage?

Yes. Always allow extra material for cuts, offcuts and fitting waste. Around 10% extra is commonly used as a starting point for straightforward layouts.

Can I choose between different wood species?

Yes. This collection includes hardwood options such as oak, maple, ash and cherry, giving you a choice of colours, grain patterns and interior styles.

Is narrow strip flooring suitable for small rooms?

Yes. Narrow strip flooring can work particularly well in smaller rooms, hallways and traditional interiors because the slimmer boards create a balanced sense of scale. The repeated board lines can also make a space feel longer or more structured, depending on the installation direction. For a calmer appearance, choose a lighter timber or cleaner grade with less visible colour variation and fewer knots.
