In order to achieve the subfloor height deviation tolerance of +/- 2mm over a 3m area a combination of Mapei Renovation self levelling compound and 5.5mm plywood was used, whereas 5.5mm plywood was used to clad the stairs.
The Gevrey engineered boards have been laid free floating above Duralay acoustic underlay to the landing and hallways, with each board bonded tongue to groove using Lecol PVAC wooden flooring adhesive.
Every board and coloured stairnosing has been fixed to the staircase using a combination of pins and Lecol MS262 adhesive, with Bona wenge gapmaster used to fill all minor pin holes.
All expansion gaps left around the perimeter were masked using white primed quadrant whilst a selection of coloured wooden doorbars were fixed to transition room to room.
Smoked & handscraped; the texture and colour of the Gevrey boards has bought an abundance of character and warmth to this beautiful family home.
