ONS, Census 2021, 2021-03-21 · all local facts →Census figures barely move across this county – ownership, private letting, social letting, near enough the same from one authority to the next.
What sits under the floor does move. A steel town laid out in the middle of the last century was built on concrete; a boot-and-shoe town nearby stands on boards a century older. Flats hardly figure.
Nearly every job is a whole house: a hall carrying the entire household, a staircase, two storeys wanting one unbroken run of colour. That puts the wear rating and a matched nosing ahead of acoustic layers, which have little to do in a street of semis and detached houses. Downstairs the base sets the preparation – a moisture reading on concrete, levelling on boards.

Questions
Flooring in Northamptonshire: FAQs
Do you deliver flooring across Northamptonshire?
Yes – one letter pair covers the whole county for us: NN1 to NN5 and NN7 through Northampton and Duston, NN14, NN15 and NN16 for Kettering, Burton Latimer and Desborough, NN17 and NN18 at Corby, Gretton and Weldon. Earls Barton, Irchester and Cogenhoe are on the same roads.
Which flooring is most popular in Northamptonshire?
A wide engineered oak board downstairs, run from the front door through without a change of material at every threshold, is what most households here end up choosing, and what we recommend. On the stairs and landing, where the traffic concentrates, a high-wear laminate or LVT in a matched shade takes the punishment better.
Can I order flooring samples in Northamptonshire?
Samples, yes – and ask for enough to try in two places. What looks right in a wide back room can look heavy in a narrow hall, and the hall is the piece of floor this county's houses use hardest. Check the sample against the stair carpet or nosing if those are staying put.
How many samples can I order?
Up to 10 samples per order, and up to 2 of any one product, at £1.99 each, posted to any address in Northamptonshire.
