You're specifying for a client and your name is on the drawing. What you need from a flooring supplier is accurate data, physical samples in hand, and an installer who won't make your detail look average. This is the premium end of what we carry.

Supply only. Install is quoted per substrate after we measure, and we'll advise floating or glued rather than defaulting to whichever is easier.
Full technical data sheets, wear layer, warranty terms and slip ratings on request
Physical samples couriered, or the mobile showroom brought to your client's site
Setout drawings and board direction agreed before we lay a single board
Glued or floating advised per substrate, with the reasoning, not just a rate
One team supplying and installing, so there's no gap between the supplier and the installer to fall into
We will tell you when a substrate needs a moisture barrier, because we'd rather lose the margin than cup your client's floor
A floating floor cannot go over another floating floor. If that's what's there, uplift is mandatory and it goes in the quote.
260mm European Oak is a genuine wide board, not a narrow board photographed to look wide. The difference shows in a large room.
On concrete we recommend glued. It's quieter underfoot and it feels like what your client paid for.

Around three days on site for a straight glued install at roughly 40 m²
Add about a day where an existing floor has to come up
Timber wants to acclimatise on site before we lay, so build that into the programme rather than the install week
We go in after the wet trades and after painting. Tell us where we sit and we'll book to it.
Yes. Tell us the ranges and we'll courier samples, or bring the mobile showroom to your office or your client's site. If you're presenting, give us a couple of days notice and we'll make sure you have full size boards rather than chips.
Yes, on request for anything we carry. For commercial work where compliance matters, ask early rather than at specification sign off, so we can confirm the exact product rather than the range.
You do, with us, before we start. Board direction, where the run begins and how it resolves at doorways all get agreed on site or on the drawing. We don't want to be making those calls on your project without you.
It depends on the range and what's in the country. European timber can be the long pole, so if you're specifying it for a fixed completion date, talk to us at design stage rather than at order stage and we'll tell you honestly what's realistic.
Regularly. We can quote to the builder, to you, or direct to the client, whichever suits how the contract is set up. Either way, one team measures, supplies and installs, so there's nobody to blame in the middle when something isn't right.
Sometimes, and we'll be straight with you when we can't. Timber shifts colour with age and light, so a perfect match to a ten year old floor is rarely possible. Often the better answer is a deliberate transition rather than a near miss that reads as a mistake.
We'll come back with quantities you can check, the technical data you need, and samples in your hands rather than in the post somewhere.
