Product Description
Add a touch of light, modern sophistication to your home with the stunning Castro Alexandria Oak 250, available from FloorStore Direct, Ireland’s trusted destination for engineered flooring and hardwood floors. Crafted with precision and designed to last, this premium oak floor brings together timeless beauty, subtle elegance, and exceptional quality — making it the perfect choice for homeowners, designers, and architects seeking a floor that truly transforms any space.
The Castro Alexandria Oak 250 is a 15mm engineered floor featuring impressive 250mm-wide boards, designed to give your room an open, airy, and luxurious look. The extra width highlights the natural grain and character of the oak, creating a seamless flow that enhances both small and large interiors. Whether you’re updating a family home or styling a high-end commercial space, this floor exudes understated refinement.
Its light stain, brushed texture, and matt lacquer finish combine to produce a surface that feels as good as it looks. The brushed finish gently accentuates the oak’s natural grain, adding depth and tactile appeal underfoot. The light stainbrightens the wood while maintaining its organic warmth, resulting in a fresh and inviting aesthetic perfect for contemporary interiors. Finally, the matt lacquer gives the floor a subtle, low-sheen glow — offering durability and resistance to daily wear without sacrificing its natural wood feel.
Graded as rustic, this floor celebrates the authenticity and individuality of real hardwood. You’ll find charming knots, gentle tonal variation, and traces of sapwood that make every plank unique. This natural detailing adds character and depth, giving your floor a story that feels truly one-of-a-kind.
For optimal performance, Castro Alexandria Oak 250 must be glued directly to the subfloor, ensuring a solid and stable installation. Its engineered construction — a real oak top layer over a stable multi-ply base — provides excellent dimensional stability, making it less prone to expansion and contraction compared to solid wood. It’s also fully compatible with underfloor heating, making it ideal for modern Irish homes.

Recommend Adhesive
Because of the excessive length and width of our Castro 250 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.
