Product story

Timeless Grandeur: Berkeley Cathedral Oak

Bring the majesty and worn beauty of a historic landmark into your home with Berkeley Cathedral Oak—an engineered wood floor that captures the undulating character of centuries-old timber.

Part of the prestigious Berkeley collection, Cathedral Oak is designed to evoke the feeling of generations of footfall. Each plank is meticulously hand-scraped by artisans to create a surface that rises and falls beneath your feet, offering a tactile connection to the past. The colour palette is a rich, warming blend of honey, caramel, and cocoa hues, ensuring that while the texture is rugged, the overall look is inviting and sophisticated.

Delivery

In-stock orders are dispatched within 3–5 working days, with express options available. Special-order and made-to-order ranges carry their own lead time, shown on the product page and confirmed when you order. Pallet, slab, large-format and bathware orders travel on a specialist off-load service — we confirm the timescale and book a date that suits you before dispatch.

Delivery is calculated at checkout from your order and postcode (we do not offer showroom collection) and UK delivery is free on orders over £1,000 on most ranges. For pallet deliveries please tell us about access issues in advance — low trees or bridges, narrow roads or gateways, gravel drives, or no turning or unloading space — as a re-delivery charge may apply if we cannot complete delivery.

When your order arrives

Please check your delivery as soon as it arrives. Once goods are unloaded they become the responsibility of the receiver, so if anything isn’t right, contact us within three working days and we’ll put it right quickly.

Returns

To request a return, contact Hyperion within 14 days of delivery. For eligible online consumer cancellations, you have a further 14 days after telling us to send the goods back. Contact us for the correct return address; your statutory cancellation does not depend on our authorisation.

Additional supplier returns have their own eligibility rules, charges and exclusions. These do not override statutory cancellation rights or rights for faulty goods. See our refund policy and supplier return guidance before arranging a return.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

How does "Cathedral Oak" differ from other Berkeley floors?

While all Berkeley floors are hand-scraped, Cathedral Oak is defined by its colour. It sits in the "warm" spectrum, featuring a mix of honey, caramel, and cocoa tones. It is generally warmer than the grey-washed "Charterhouse" and lighter than the scorched "Priory" oak.

Is the surface smooth or textured?

It is highly textured. The surface is hand-scraped to create undulations (waves) that mimic footfall wear over centuries. This gives the floor a unique, lived-in feel that is very different from a flat, machine-sanded floor.

What is the wear layer?

The floor boasts a 4mm solid oak wear layer on top of a 11mm engineered core. This provides the durability and appearance of solid oak with the structural stability of engineered wood.

Does it come with a warranty?

Yes, Woodpecker Flooring provides an exceptional 100-year warranty on this product, ensuring your investment is protected for a lifetime.

Can I use this in a kitchen?

Yes, engineered oak is suitable for kitchens. The rustic, hand-scraped nature of Cathedral Oak is particularly forgiving of small dents or scratches that might occur in a busy kitchen environment.

Installation & Care Tips

⚠️ Installation & care

  • Installation Method: This versatile T&G board can be installed as a floating floor (gluing the tongue and groove), nailed to a wooden subfloor, or fully bonded to the screed.
  • Underfloor Heating: Fully compatible with water-based and electric UFH systems. For optimal performance, the glue-down method is required.
  • Oiled Finish Care: The hardwax oil finish protects the wood from within. Regular sweeping and occasional cleaning with Woodpecker's specific oiled wood cleaner will keep it looking magnificent.
  • Rustic Character: This is an "Extra Rustic" grade product. It is defined by its large knots, splits, and dark filler, which are intentional features designed to mimic the look of reclaimed timber.
