Oiled or Lacquered?
An Oiled floor will look more natural and is very easy to repair if damaged as the affected area can be patch repaired by simply sanding back and re-oiling. A lacquered floor can be repaired in the same way although a bigger area would have to be refinished for it to blend in. Repairing on a lacquered floor is not always advised as the floor may need completely recoating. With an Oiled floor the oil actually soaks deep into the wood, which makes the floor appear more natural. An Oiled floor would need re-oiling periodically, so on average once a year. With a Lacquered floor the lacquer forms a coating on top of the wood, minor scratches can be repaired using our revitalising polish. Oiling is a treament whereas lacquering is a coating.

Prime or Character?

Prime grade flooring is free from any defects or knots and is even in colour. Prime boards comes from the heart of the trunk of the tree i.e the best and most expensive cuts of timber. Ideal if you want a clean, minimal or modern look. Character grade flooring is as the name suggests flooring boards which have character. Boards would generally feature small natural knots and natural timber defects although all knots are filled and sanded and there would be more colour variation. This type of floor becomes a real feature in itself and every floor will be unique, trees are like people, every one is different.
Selling all grades ensures none of the tree is wasted.
