Timeless Depth: York Antique Oak Solid Wood

Capture the grandeur of a period estate with York Antique Oak—a premium 18mm solid wood floor that brings deep, chocolatey tones and historic character to your home.

York Antique Oak is designed for those who desire a floor with a sense of history. Crafted from 100% solid timber, these planks undergo a staining process that draws out the deep, dark mahogany and coffee hues within the oak grain. The result is a floor that looks like it has been part of the home for decades, offering a sophisticated and grounded aesthetic. Each plank is finished with five coats of UV lacquer, providing a smooth, protective shield that preserves the rich colour against sunlight and heavy foot traffic. As a solid 18mm product, it offers the structural integrity and substantial feel that only true timber can provide, making it a legacy investment for your property.

⚠️ Professional Installation Tips

  • Acclimatisation: Essential for solid wood. Packs must be stored in the room of installation for 5-7 days prior to fitting.
  • Fitting: This floor must be fixed down. We recommend either secret-nailing or a full-surface bond using high-quality adhesive.
  • Underfloor Heating: Solid wood flooring is not suitable for use with underfloor heating. For UFH-compatible alternatives, view our Engineered Wood collection.

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

Is York flooring solid or engineered wood?

York is 18mm solid oak flooring, machined from a single piece of timber with traditional tongue-and-groove edges. As genuine solid wood it can be sanded and refinished many times over its life, and it is backed by a 100-year domestic warranty.

What does York Antique Oak look like and where does it suit?

York Antique Oak is stained to deep mahogany and coffee tones, giving solid oak a rich, historic character. It brings warmth and a sense of heritage to living rooms, dining rooms and hallways, and suits period properties and traditional interiors particularly well.

Can York solid oak be used with underfloor heating?

As a natural solid-wood floor, York is generally not recommended over underfloor heating, because solid timber is more sensitive to temperature and humidity changes than engineered board. If you need a wood floor for an underfloor-heated room, an engineered range such as Harlech or Chepstow is the better choice, and our team is happy to advise.

How is York solid oak flooring installed?

York is fitted using its tongue-and-groove profile, either secret-nailed to a timber subfloor or fully bonded with a suitable flexible adhesive over screed. We always recommend acclimatising solid wood in the room before fitting and leaving the correct expansion gaps around the perimeter.

What warranty does York come with, and can I order samples?

York solid oak is backed by a 100-year domestic warranty. You can order free cut samples to see the grade and finish in your own light, and we offer free UK delivery on orders over £1,000, plus a full display at our Ascot showroom.
