Description
Misty Elegance: Chepstow Shale Oak
Bring the serenity of coastal cliffs and morning mist into your home with Chepstow Shale Oak—a superior 21mm engineered plank that blends structural robustness with contemporary, cool grey tones.
Inspired by mist cascading across rock faces, Chepstow Shale Oak features a beautiful palette of soft greys and cool tonal variations that add vitality and depth to any room. Unlike standard grey floors, the natural "Rustic" grade ensures that the timber's character still shines through, with visible knots and grain patterns preventing the colour from looking flat. At **21mm thick** with a substantial **6mm wear layer**, this structural board is designed to last a lifetime. Finished with durable **Hardwax Oil**, the surface is protected while retaining an organic, satin feel that is a joy to walk on barefoot.

⚠️ Professional Installation Tips
- Structural Fitting: Chepstow 21mm can be secret nailed directly to floor joists (at 400mm centres) as a load-bearing floor, or floated over an underlay.
- Underfloor Heating: Compatible with UFH. However, for efficient heat transfer with this 21mm thick board, a full surface bond (glue-down) installation is highly recommended over the UFH screed.
- Maintenance: This floor is Oiled. You should use a liquid wax cleaner (like Woodpecker One Coat Soap) to clean and nourish the floor. Do not use standard detergents.
