Product Description
Elegant, bright, and effortlessly stylish, Castro Alexandria Oak 220 brings timeless beauty and warmth to any space. Available exclusively from FloorStore Direct, Ireland’s leading supplier of engineered flooring and hardwood floors, this premium oak floor blends natural charm with modern craftsmanship. Its light tones and soft texture make it a versatile choice for both contemporary and classic interiors, creating a calming atmosphere that feels instantly inviting.
Each board of Castro Alexandria Oak 220 is crafted to the highest standards, ensuring superior performance and lasting durability. At 15mm thick and an impressive 220mm wide, the planks offer both strength and visual impact. The wide-board format enhances the natural grain of the oak, giving rooms an open, seamless look that radiates sophistication. It’s the ideal floor for homeowners seeking a premium finish that transforms their living space with elegance and light.
The light stained finish on this engineered oak floor softens the wood’s natural hue, producing a warm, golden tone that complements any interior colour palette. The subtle stain adds a touch of refinement while preserving the beauty of real oak. Each plank is brushed to gently expose the grain, creating a tactile texture that enhances the floor’s natural depth and authenticity. This delicate brushing process adds dimension, allowing light to play beautifully across the surface.
The final layer — a matt lacquer finish — provides a luxurious yet practical touch. The lacquer protects the wood from everyday wear, spills, and scratches while maintaining a natural, low-sheen look. Unlike high-gloss finishes, matt lacquer retains the organic beauty of oak, offering the perfect balance between durability and understated elegance. It’s easy to clean and maintain, making it an excellent choice for busy homes and commercial settings alike.
With its rustic grade, Castro Alexandria Oak 220 celebrates the character and individuality of natural wood. Expect charming knots, subtle colour variations, and areas of sapwood, each contributing to the authenticity of the floor. These natural features ensure no two boards are ever the same, creating a one-of-a-kind floor that feels alive with warmth and personality.
This engineered floor can be glued directly to the subfloor for maximum stability or floated using its tongue & groove system for easier installation. Thanks to its multi-layered construction, the floor offers excellent dimensional stability and is compatible with underfloor heating, making it perfectly suited for Ireland’s ever-changing climate.
At FloorStore Direct, we pride ourselves on being the best place in Ireland to buy engineered and hardwood flooring. With expert guidance, outstanding service, and Ireland’s widest range of premium wood floors, we make it easy to find the perfect match for your home.

Recommended Underlay
Because of the excessive length and width of our Castro 220 Boards we advise them to be directly glued to the subfloor. This will provide a more solid and stable structure that will increase noise reduction, feel better underfoot and will not expand as much. In the long term it will also provide structural stability during any floor sanding. If you have underfloor heating a glued down floor eliminates air pockets and will then allow your heating to work more economically. You can view all our adhesives here.
Fitting Guidelines
In order for your new floor to perform to the best of its ability we advise using a skilled, professional fitter for the installation of your new floor. Prior to installation your floor must be checked to ensure it is level and free from moisture. Should there be any issues with this our levelling compounds and damp proof membranes are available here. It is vitally important, in particular with a floating floor that you do not fit any heavy objects (Such as fitted kitchens or islands) directly to the floor. An installation gap of 10-12mm must also be left around all 4 sides of the room including at doorways. Please refer to manufacturers guidelines for full installation instructions.
Cleaning & Maintenance Guide
The cleaning and maintenance of our Castro Range is pretty much the same as with most Engineered Flooring. A sweep of a brush is all it should take to remove light dirt from your floor. For mopping, it is important you use a damp mop rather than a wet mop. If your floor is too wet, over time it may cause issues from water penetrating the joints. We advise the use of a PH neutral floor cleaner to ensure no damage to the floor. Also a spin mop or micro fibre mop should ensure the floor is not being overly wet.
