Walton Reclaimed Oak Parquet
This project, set within an early Victorian property in Walton upon Thames, involved the supply and installation of a high-grade reclaimed English oak parquet floor, originally salvaged from County Hall on the South Bank.
The blocks were laid in a traditional herringbone format, then deep sanded with all gaps filled to create a more refined and continuous surface. This process brought out a soft, mellow tone characteristic of aged and naturally oxidised English oak.
The floor provides a strong and appropriate base to the renovated interior, its scale and pattern sitting comfortably within the proportions of the house. The use of reclaimed oak brings a depth and subtle variation that is difficult to replicate with new material, allowing the floor to support the overall design with a sense of permanence and quiet authenticity.
