Report
Ian fitted our floor beautifully. We met Jim at the grand design show and fell in love with the reclaimed wine barrel oak floor (300 year old!). We had beautiful detailing added to match one of our existing floors, we love it and are having more done

Report
Jim and his boys from Eco Flooring came to ours to fit a reclaimed oak chevron floor after we met at the Grand Designs Show. Throughout our entire place, which measures about 90 sq mtrs. All done and dusted in just over two days. Looks amazing, very happy.
