Timberlay Engineered Oak Flooring, Double Smoked, Oiled, 190x3x14 Mm

The Timberlay Engineered Oak Flooring, Double Smoked, Oiled, 190x3x14 Mm is part of our TimberLay Oak Rustic flooring collection, adding a natural touch to every environment. This 190 mm wide flooring plank comes with 3 mm top layer and Tongue-and-Groove joint system.

Hardwood Wear Layer

Timberlay Engineered Oak Flooring, Double Smoked, Oiled, 190x3x14 Mm has a 3 mm real hardwood top layer, the most popular and cost-effective wear layer for engineered wood flooring. The top layer, or wear layer, is the solid wood surface you walk on. Its thickness decides how many times the floor can be sanded and refinished during its life.

A professional sanding usually removes around 0.5–1 mm of timber, so a 3 mm wear layer can typically be renovated at least once, and often twice. Between sandings, the finish can also be refreshed with a recoat of lacquer or maintenance oil, without sanding back to bare wood.

It's a great choice for bedrooms, living rooms and rental properties, giving you the authentic look and feel of real wood at a more affordable price. Compare other 3 mm top layer floors, or browse our full engineered wood flooring range.

Natural Oiled Finish

An oiled finish soaks into the wood and protects it from within, giving the timber a natural, matt look and feel that brings out the warmth and grain of the wood. Floors are often brushed before oiling to emphasise the texture, a finish known as "Brushed & Oiled". Factory-applied UV oils and hardwax oils add extra resistance from day one.

Oil is less hard-wearing than lacquer, but it can be topped up and spot-repaired without sanding the whole floor. Regular maintenance with a compatible oil or hardwax oil can delay a full renovation and preserve the wear layer of your floor.

Traditional oils can take 6–10 hours to dry per coat, so plan re-oiling around a quiet period at home. Putting it off too long can mean an earlier full sanding. Browse all oiled wood flooring.

Oak Flooring

Oak is an extremely versatile wood type - a medium density hardwood, with strength, character and durability surpasses many other timber species. Oak starts soft and malleable, but once dry becomes hard and durable. Whether aged by the weather or preserved with a suitable stain or varnish, the beauty of Oak is undeniable. Its distinctive look exudes quality, and its rich colouring and attractive woodgrain deliver an elegant texture. Its rustic look is able to add instant charm and character to any application, whether situated internally or externally.

Rustic Character

Timberlay Engineered Oak Flooring, Double Smoked, Oiled, 190x3x14 Mm is available in Rustic grade, a timber selection that allows knots of any size and natural colour variation between planks. Knots and small cracks are usually filled during manufacture, leaving a smooth, practical surface with plenty of character.

Rustic grade flooring adds warmth and authenticity to any space and suits country, industrial and Scandinavian styles alike. Its lively, varied surface also helps disguise everyday wear, dust and light scratches, which makes it a great choice for busy family homes, hallways and kitchens.

Because more of each log can be used, Rustic grade is often the best-value option in a collection. Grade describes appearance, not durability. Browse all Rustic grade flooring, or compare with the more even Natural grade.

Installation

Our 14 mm engineered wood flooring range is the most popular, thanks to its great value and wide choice of colours and finishes. Timberlay Engineered Oak Flooring, Double Smoked, Oiled, 190x3x14 Mm has a tongue-and-groove joint and is ideal for a floating installation over concrete or timber subfloors. Lay it over a suitable underlay and glue the tongue-and-groove joints.

Where underfloor heating (UFH) is fitted, we recommend a full glue-down installation with a flexible wood flooring adhesive. This keeps the boards in close contact with the heated screed for better heat transfer and stability. You'll find suitable products in our adhesives & damp-proofers range.

Before fitting, let the boards acclimatise in the room for at least 48 hours, check that the subfloor is clean, dry and level, and leave a 10–15 mm expansion gap around the perimeter. Compare more 14 mm flooring options.

Maintenance of Oiled Floors

Oiled floors bring a warm, natural feel to any room, but they need a little more regular care than lacquered floors. Sweep or vacuum regularly, then clean with a soap-based cleaner made for oiled floors, which nourishes the wood as it cleans. We recommend the Bona Spray Mop for Oiled Floors, available in our cleaning & maintenance range.

Depending on foot traffic, top up the finish with a maintenance oil typically every 1–2 years, and more often in busy areas such as hallways and kitchens. Regular re-oiling keeps the wood protected and can put off a full sanding, which preserves the wear layer of your floor.

A big advantage of an oiled finish is that light scratches and worn patches can be spot-repaired without treating the whole floor. Find compatible products in our oil & hardwax-oil range.
