{"product_id":"brushed-natural-oak-hand-scraped-engineered-wood-flooring","title":"Brushed Natural Oak Hand Scraped 180mm Engineered Plank","description":"\u003cp\u003eBrushed Natural Oak Hand Scraped keeps the honest colour of oak and adds texture by hand. It is a 180mm Nature engineered plank on a 20mm board, with a 6mm real oak top layer that has been scraped, brushed and lacquered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLook and character\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere its golden and antique siblings add colour, this one stays close to untreated oak: a light-to-mid natural tone with lighter and darker grain lines running through it. The hand-scraped surface has soft, irregular hollows, so the floor looks shaped by hand rather than machined flat. Brushing opens the grain, and a lacquer coat locks it in with a gentle sheen and a surface that is simple to wipe clean. As Classic grade oak it has small natural knots rather than heavy character. It suits almost any interior, from a modern kitchen-diner to a Victorian terrace.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConstruction and specification\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 20\/6mm build means 20mm in total, with 6mm of real oak forming the surface you walk on. Under the face is a cross-bonded multi-ply core, which is what lets an engineered plank cope with central heating better than a solid board of the same size. The lacquer forms a sealed coat on top of the wood, so everyday spills wipe off and routine cleaning is simple. Planks measure 180mm wide by 1860mm long, and each pack covers 1.674 m². With a bevel on the long edges only (2V), the floor has clear lengthwise lines and quieter end joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can run it from the hallway into living and dining rooms, and use it in bedrooms, kitchens and conservatories too. Carrying the floor up the staircase is possible; use \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stair-nosing\"\u003estair nosing\u003c\/a\u003e to finish the tread edges neatly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and underfloor heating\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe boards join with a tongue and groove and can be laid floating over underlay or glued down to a prepared subfloor.
