Refined Elegance: York Select Oak Solid Wood

Discover the pinnacle of timber quality with York Select Oak—a premium 18mm solid wood floor featuring a cleaner, more uniform appearance for a truly sophisticated home.

While rustic floors celebrate irregularity, York Select Oak is all about refinement. Carefully harvested from the highest quality timber, "Select" grade planks feature minimal knots and a more consistent grain pattern, resulting in a floor that feels calm, elegant, and timeless. Each 18mm thick solid oak plank is treated with five coats of UV lacquer, protecting the wood's natural honey-gold hues from sunlight and daily wear while providing a smooth, lustrous finish. This is a floor built to last a lifetime, offering the unparalleled structural strength of solid timber combined with a high-end, polished aesthetic that complements both modern and traditional interiors.

⚠️ Professional Installation Tips

  • Acclimatisation: Critical for solid timber. Allow the wood to sit in the room of installation for 5-7 days before fitting to adapt to the local humidity.
  • Fixing: This floor must be permanently fixed. We recommend either secret-nailing into a timber subfloor or a full-surface bond (glue-down) on concrete.
  • Underfloor Heating: As a solid wood product, York Select Oak is not suitable for use with underfloor heating. For UFH-compatible floors, please see 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

What makes "Select" grade different from "Rustic"?

Select grade is harvested from the centre of the tree, resulting in fewer knots, less sapwood, and a more uniform colour. It is considered a higher grade for those who prefer a cleaner, more contemporary look.

How often can this floor be sanded?

York Select Oak is 18mm of solid wood. Depending on how much is removed, it can generally be sanded 4-6 times over its life, allowing it to look brand new for decades.

Is UV Lacquer easy to maintain?

Yes. The UV lacquer provides a tough, smooth barrier that is easy to sweep and mop. It also helps prevent the wood from changing colour too rapidly when exposed to sunlight.

Why should I buy from a family business like Hyperion?

We offer a level of accountability and technical expertise that large chains can't. We know our products inside out and provide honest advice tailored to your specific home needs.

Does the free delivery apply to all of the UK?

We offer free delivery on orders over £300 to most UK mainland addresses. Please contact us for a quote for Highlands and Islands.
