Ask a Question
1. Does a light floor like Grand Oak Light show more dirt? Actually, light oak is incredibly practical. Unlike very dark floors that highlight every speck of dust, the subtle, multi-tonal grain of Grand Oak Light is excellent at camouflaging light debris and micro-scratches, making it a favorite for busy families.
2. Can I install this floor over underfloor heating? Yes! Excel Grand Oak Light is fully compatible with water-based underfloor heating systems. Its 8mm profile allows for efficient heat transfer, ensuring your home stays cozy and energy-efficient during the winter months.
3. Is it difficult to install this floor myself? Not at all. Thanks to the advanced Kronotex Clic system, the boards lock together securely without the need for glue. With a few basic tools and a bit of patience, you can achieve a professional-looking result.
Recommended Underlay
The underlay you choose for your new floor can be just as important as the floor itself as this is what will determine the feel and noise level under your foot. Furthermore if you have underfloor heating, the underlay you choose will determine the level of heat conductivity with some underlays allowing for a quicker heat transfer than others. Because of this, getting the right underlay is hugely important. You can view our entire underlay collection 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 Kronotex laminate floor is pretty much the same as with all Laminate 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.
