More about 14mm Engineered Wood Flooring

Our 14mm engineered wood flooring gives you real oak on a stable multi-layer core, in the most popular thickness for UK homes. Every board has a 3mm oak wear layer, tongue and groove joints and a 25-year guarantee, and it's suitable for underfloor heating. Choose from 125mm planks, 190mm wide planks and herringbone, from £44.99 per m² including VAT, and see the full range at our Manchester showroom in Stretford.

Why choose 14mm engineered wood flooring?

14mm is the all-rounder of engineered flooring. It's thick enough to feel solid and stable underfoot, but slim enough to keep floor heights manageable, which often means less door trimming than with 18mm or 20mm boards. That makes it a great choice for renovations, replacing carpet or laminate, and rooms with underfloor heating.

A 3mm real oak wear layer

Each 14mm board has a 3mm top layer of real oak bonded to a cross-layered core. You get the genuine grain, texture and warmth of an oak floor, with far better stability than solid wood. The wear layer is thick enough for the floor to be sanded and refinished later in its life.

14mm engineered oak in planks and herringbone

Choose 125mm planks for a classic strip floor, 190mm wide planks for a more open, modern look, or 90mm x 400mm herringbone blocks for a timeless parquet pattern. Finishes include Natural, Antique Haze, Golden Glow and Bourbon, plus hand-scraped and distressed options, all with a brushed, UV-lacquered surface.

14mm vs 18mm vs 20mm Engineered Wood Flooring

Thicker engineered boards usually have a thicker wear layer, so they can be sanded more times, but they cost more and raise your floor height further. 14mm boards with a 3mm wear layer hit the sweet spot for most homes: real oak you can refinish, good stability, a sensible price and minimal impact on door heights and transitions. Thicker 18–20mm boards are often chosen for very large rooms or where the floor needs to be refinished many times over decades.

Fitting 14mm Engineered Wood Flooring

Our 14mm boards are tongue and groove, so they can usually be floated over a suitable underlay or glued down, depending on your subfloor. Let the boards acclimatise in the room before fitting, leave an expansion gap around the edges and always follow the fitting instructions for your floor. Our team can recommend the right underlay, scotia and trims when you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is 14mm engineered wood flooring good quality?

Yes. 14mm is one of the most popular engineered flooring thicknesses in the UK. With a 3mm real oak wear layer and a stable multi-layer core, it offers a great balance of durability, stability and value for most homes.

Is 14mm thick enough for engineered wood flooring?

For most homes, yes. 14mm boards feel solid underfoot and are stable enough for living rooms, hallways, bedrooms and kitchens. Thicker boards mainly add extra wear layer and height, which many homes don't need.

Can 14mm engineered wood flooring be sanded?

Yes. Our boards have a 3mm oak wear layer, which typically allows the floor to be lightly sanded and refinished when it starts to show wear. We recommend using a professional floor sander.

Can 14mm engineered wood flooring go over underfloor heating?

Yes. Our 14mm engineered oak is suitable for underfloor heating. The stable core copes well with temperature changes. Just follow the fitting guidance on maximum floor temperature.

Do I need underlay for 14mm engineered wood flooring?

If you're floating the floor, yes: use an underlay designed for wood flooring, with a damp-proof membrane over concrete subfloors. If the boards are glued down, underlay isn't usually needed. We can recommend the right option for your subfloor.

Will 14mm flooring fit under my doors?

14mm boards plus underlay usually add around 16–17mm to your floor height. That's often less than thicker engineered boards, but check the gap under your doors. Some may need a small trim, especially if you're replacing thin carpet or vinyl.
