Engineered Wood Recommendations. Please.

Hi,

I purchased some Quick Step laminate (harvast oak) from floors-to-go and have had a change of heart now i've seen the stuff laid out on a friends floor. It looks, well, like fake wood.

So im now looking at getting some engineered wood. I don't really want to spend any more than £30psm. I purchased the Quick Step from floors- to-go in Peckham, South East London, so have been looking at their selection of engineered wood.

Can anyone offer me an opinion on this stuff:

It will be installed in my lounge - the sub floor is concrete with some sort of black plastic tiling on top.

If anyone can recommend any other engineered oak from somewhere else for circa £30psm that would be great too.

Oh one last question, how much should I be looking to pay someone to install the stuff over 20 square metres of floor? Someone has quoted me £200. Not sure if that is reasonable ot not.

thanks

Dan

Floorstogo product is basic product, imho nothing wrong with. Although we prefer an oiled finish ourselves for that price a lacquered is the best bet.

Use combi-underlayment ontop of the plastic tiles

£200 for 20 sq m? £10 per sq m - cheap!
