Buying guide

Grey Oak, explained

Still unsure? Real people, honest advice.

Grey Oak is engineered oak in 6 boards, from a light washed grey to a deep smoked grey. Widths run from 125 mm to 220 mm; every board is brushed, three are matt lacquered, two hard wax oiled and one UV oiled.

The look

Cool light, cool floor
Grey oak reads truest under daylight. Under warm bulbs a washed grey can drift towards beige, which is often a pleasant surprise rather than a problem; check the sample in the evening as well as at noon.
Washed or smoked
The washed greys (Light Grey, Grey Washed) keep the oak grain pale under a grey tint; the smoked greys (Cobham Smoked Grey, Victorian Antique Smoked Grey) carry the colour deeper into the wood and read darker and more even. They are two different floors under one heading.
Where it works
Coastal and Scandinavian schemes, converted flats with white walls, and any room where the furniture is the colour and the floor should stay quiet.
In depth

Choosing grey engineered oak

There are two greys here, and it helps to decide which you want before comparing boards. The washed greys, Weybridge Light Grey and Weybridge Grey Washed, take a grey tint over pale oak, so the grain stays light and the floor reads as a cool natural board. The smoked greys, Cobham Smoked Grey and the Victorian Antique Smoked Grey, carry the colour into the wood, so the floor reads darker, more even and more deliberate. Ascot Ashdown is listed by its colour as smoked grey oak, the Developer Grey Oak as grey oak. Put a washed and a smoked sample side by side and the difference is obvious; in separate photographs it is not.

The surface does not follow that split exactly. Weybridge Light Grey, Weybridge Grey Washed and Cobham Smoked Grey are brushed and matt lacquered, a hard-wearing surface that is wiped clean and refinished as a whole floor in due course. Ascot Ashdown is brushed and hard wax oiled with a Rustic grade, so it can be re-oiled locally and carries more knots and colour play. The Victorian Antique Smoked Grey is deep brushed and hard wax oiled, with the antique grade's variation and a 4 mm wear layer. The Developer Grey Oak is brushed and UV oiled, Rustic grade, 12 mm thick with a 2 mm wear layer; the Ascot, Cobham and Weybridge boards are 14 mm with 3 mm, the antique board 15 mm. Widths run from the 125 mm Ascot plank, through the 150 mm Cobham and Developer boards, all three in random lengths, to the 190 mm Weybridge and 220 mm Victorian Antique planks.

In practice

Grey is the colour most affected by the light in the room. Daylight from the north keeps it cool; warm evening light and warm bulbs pull it towards greige. Neither is wrong, but the sample should be looked at in both before the order goes in. All 6 boards are tongue and groove, micro-bevelled and listed as compatible with underfloor heating. The manufacturer's warranty is 15 years, except 10 years on the Developer Grey Oak.

If the scheme is warmer than expected once the walls are painted, the light oak range is the neighbour to look at: the same pale grain without the grey tint. If it is cooler, the white oak boards take the palette one step further.

Acclimatisation before fitting

The Contract Flooring Association's guide asks for a steady room temperature of 18 to 27 °C, reached 48 hours before installation, so that the flooring can be kept in the room and reach room temperature before it is laid.

conditioning before installation48 h

“They also advise that this temperature should be attained 48 hours prior to the installation, so that floorings can be kept in the room and brought to room temperature (acclimatised) before installation.”

Questions

Is grey oak going out of style?
The pale, washed greys have settled into the standard palette alongside natural and white oak; the very cool, flat greys of a few years ago are the ones that date. Choose a grey with visible oak grain and some warmth in it and the floor will outlast the trend that brought it in.
What is the difference between Light Grey and Grey Washed?
Both are Weybridge boards at 190 mm by 1900 mm with a brushed, matt lacquered surface and a 3 mm wear layer. Light Grey is the cooler, more uniform tint; Grey Washed leaves more of the underlying oak colour showing through, so it sits closer to a natural board.
Can grey oak go over underfloor heating?
All 6 boards are listed as compatible with underfloor heating. The colour does not change the rules: keep the surface temperature within the limit in the specification and let the floor acclimatise in the heated room before it is laid.
