Bold Sophistication: Harlech Espresso Oak

Make a powerful design statement with Harlech Espresso Oak—a 15mm engineered wood floor that brings the intense, rich depth of dark chocolate tones to your interior.

Harlech Espresso Oak is the ultimate foundation for a high-contrast, luxury interior. Each plank undergoes a deep staining process to achieve its signature dark espresso hue, which beautifully accentuates the oak's natural grain and character. The wood is carefully brushed to lift the grain and finished with five coats of high-performance matte lacquer. This ensures the floor is resilient enough for busy family life while maintaining a contemporary, low-sheen appearance that feels incredibly tactile underfoot. With a substantial 4mm real oak wear layer and a stable engineered core, this floor provides the architectural weight of traditional dark timber with the performance required for modern underfloor-heated homes.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

Will the dark Espresso colour wear off?

No. The Espresso stain is applied deep into the grain and then protected by five coats of matte lacquer. With standard residential use, the colour will remain rich for decades.

Is dark wood harder to clean?

While dark floors can highlight dust and pet hair more than light floors, the matte finish on Harlech Espresso Oak is much better at hiding streaks and footprints than a satin or gloss finish.

Can this floor be sanded?

Yes. With a 4mm real oak wear layer, it can typically be sanded and refinished 2-3 times over its lifespan. Note: Sanding will remove the Espresso stain and reveal the natural light oak colour.

Why choose engineered over solid wood?

Engineered wood is far more stable, making it better for modern homes with central heating or underfloor heating. It provides the same look as solid wood but with better performance.
