Every kind of wood floor, looked after by one craftsman.

From a single bedroom to a whole reception room, from brand-new engineered oak to boards that have been hidden under carpet for decades — surveyed, laid or restored, and finished to be lived on.

Engineered Wood Flooring
01

Engineered Wood Flooring

Engineered wood floors are built up in layers with a real wood top, so they cope with the changing humidity of a lived-in home and suit rooms with underfloor heating. Hazelwood supplies and fits engineered oak and other species in planks, herringbone and parquet — measured, acclimatised and laid to sit flat and quiet for years.

Solid Wood Flooring
02

Solid Wood Flooring

Solid wood is a single piece of timber through and through — a floor that ages beautifully and can be sanded and refinished again and again over its lifetime. It's the classic choice for period rooms and anyone who wants a floor to outlast the house's next few makeovers.

Herringbone & Parquet
03

Herringbone & Parquet

Pattern flooring is where the craft shows. Herringbone, chevron and traditional block parquet are set out from the centre of the room so the pattern runs true to the walls and doorways — the kind of floor that makes a whole room. Real herringbone jobs by Hazelwood are in the gallery.

Floor Sanding & Restoration
04

Floor Sanding & Restoration

Old boards hidden under carpet, scuffed parquet, a sports or studio floor covered in line markings — sanding removes years of wear and reveals the wood underneath. The work is dust-controlled, and reviewers note there was hardly any dust and the room was left spotless.

Oiling, Lacquering & Finishing
05

Oiling, Lacquering & Finishing

The finish decides how a floor looks and how it wears. Hazelwood finishes in hardwearing oil for a natural, matt feel or lacquer for a tougher sheen, in the tone you've chosen — sampled on your own boards before the whole floor is committed.

Subfloor Preparation & Levelling
06

Subfloor Preparation & Levelling

A wood floor is only as good as what's underneath it. Uneven subfloors are levelled with self-levelling screed and prepared so the finished floor sits flat and stays quiet — the unseen step that stops boards lifting or squeaking later.

Reclaimed & Character Wood
07

Reclaimed & Character Wood

Reclaimed timber carries a history no new board can fake — the saw marks, the stamps, the patina of a floor that has already lived a life. Hazelwood works with reclaimed and character-grade wood where you want that warmth, prepared and laid to be walked on for another generation.

Sprung & Studio Floors
08

Sprung & Studio Floors

A sprung dance floor is a specialist job — the give underfoot has to be right, and the edging has to finish it properly. Hazelwood has built professional sprung dance floors to fit tight spaces, with a solution for the final edge that, in the client's words, makes the floor look very special.
