Smoked Oak
Smoked oak flooring is a beautiful finish for both solid oak flooring and engineered oak flooring that will leave your floors with a rich dark colour ensuring sophisticated charm and durability of the deep colour for a very long time. Smoked oak flooring has been gaining popularity once again over the last decade or so and is now regarded as one of the most durable forms of wooden floors. Wooden floors create a rustic charm to a house and also allow certain flexibility as you are able to change the rugs and décor in the room whilst the flooring is constantly fitting in with the range of styles and trends you choose. Smoked oak floors are a darker and more durable method of maintaining this beautiful look.
Smoked oak flooring has the advantage of a darker colour than traditional oak flooring but due to the smoking method they maintain this colour throughout each plank. The traditional method is to sand and refinish oak flooring after several years in order to maintain the upkeep and style of the floor. Doing so with smoked oak wood flooring is still the method used as the smoky colour will run all the way through the wood ensuring the same beautiful colouring each time. This slightly uneven colouring from the natural line of the wood creates a homelike style giving the floor, as well as the rest of the room, an air of personality and comfortable sophistication. The solid wood used in oak flooring can ensure that the floor remains stable and immovable over time even when worn or refinished.
What customers should always be aware of with smoked oak flooring is that there can be some variation in the colour from one floorboard to the next - this is perfectly normal and an inevitable consequence of the smoking process because smoking the oak will highlight any natural colour variation in the oak.
