Woking · Surrey
Solid oak is one piece of timber from face to back, 18 mm thick in this range, fixed to a timber base and able to be sanded and refinished for as long as the house stands. In Woking roughly one home in 4 is a flat (26%), so sound through the floor matters alongside the base under it.
Solid Wood in Woking
The Woking district counts 41,439 households in the 2021 census, and the mix of houses and flats in that count is what decides how a solid wood floor is specified here.
Detached houses are 31% of the homes in Woking, and a detached house is more likely to have the two things solid oak wants: a timber floor structure and a room that is heated evenly. The 150 mm Windsor boards suit the room sizes. The larger the room, the more the season shows in a solid floor, so the expansion gap at the perimeter is not a detail to trim away.
Flats are 26% of the homes in the Woking district, and a flat is usually the wrong place for a solid board: the base is often concrete, the lease usually has an impact-sound clause, and a solid floor cannot be floated on an acoustic underlay. In a converted house with a timber floor and no clause, it can work; in a purpose-built block, an engineered board over acoustic underlay is the right answer and the wood looks the same.
Owner-occupation is 67% in Woking, and that is the buyer solid oak is made for. A floor that can be sanded and refinished for as long as the house stands is bought once. In Woking the older houses with timber floors are the natural home for it, and the finish, oiled or lacquered, decides how it is looked after rather than how long it lasts.

Local fact sheet
Woking in the 2021 census: 41,439 households, 74% houses, 26% flats.
Detached houses account for 30.5% of Woking's stock, yet flats run to 26.0% — a split visible between Pyrford, Horsell and Mount Hermon on one side and Canalside, Goldsworth Park and Knaphill on the other. GU21 and GU22 are the districts in scope, inside the county of Surrey. Purpose-built flats alone reach 22.7%, and private renting has climbed from 15.7% to 21.1% since 2011, so a fair share of work sits above someone else's ceiling: impact sound rating, not just the wearing surface, decides what may be laid. Larger detached properties pull the other way, with long uninterrupted spans where subfloor flatness and expansion gaps matter more than acoustics.
Woking combines Victorian and Edwardian properties near the station with substantial family homes in Horsell, Pyrford and West Byfleet, plus large modern developments at Hoe Valley and Sheerwater. The 24-minute trains to London Waterloo, Surrey countryside setting and excellent schools drive consistent commuter demand at premium prices.
Ownership has slipped from seven households in ten to two in three while private renting rose from one in six to one in five, and that rise sits in the town-centre flats rather than in Pyrford or Horsell. A leasehold flat's floor answers to the lease; a Goldsworth Park house's answers to the household.

For a room with a timber floor structure and a steady climate, yes: it is fixed to the joists as the original floor was, and it can be sanded and refinished for decades. For a concrete ground floor, a flat with a sound clause or a heated screed, the engineered range is the right oak.
The solid range is not listed for underfloor heating. Every engineered board in the range is, so a heated floor in Woking points to that range.
Keep the room climate steady, keep grit off the surface with a mat at the door, and clean it dry or barely damp. An oiled floor is re-oiled where it wears; a lacquered one is recoated when the film dulls. The care guides linked below take each finish in turn.
On the newer developments the floor sits on a screeded slab, often heated. That points away from solid timber and towards an engineered board or a good LVT, with the finished height checked against the doors before ordering — new-build door clearances leave little room to spare.
Yes. We deliver across Woking and Surrey from our UK warehouse, including the GU21 and GU22 postcode districts. Delivery cost and timing depend on the delivery postcode and are shown at checkout, and samples come by post first so the floor can be seen in the room before the full order.
Yes: cut samples are £1.99 each, up to two per product, posted to your Woking address. Two or three side by side on the floor, in the room's own light morning and evening, settle the colour faster than any photograph.
