The leaflets that follow cover the most commonly requested information. However, should you have any further queries do not hesitate to contact us.
Flooring – acclimatisation,
laying precautions and
after-care instructions
Whippletree flooring is a natural product that, from one season to the next, will display some expansion and shrinkage as the ambient humidity levels rise and fall. This expansion tends to be greater with underfloor heating (UFH) as the heat source is immediately below the timber.
Note that, depending on whether this flooring is to be installed in conventionally heated, or an underfloor heated property, these instructions vary.
Whichever type of flooring has been fitted there are several cleaning and wearing-in issues you ought also to consider.

There are two sets of instructions, depending on whether standard tongue and groove (T&G) flooring, or hand-finished/
footworn flooring is to be laid.

- Always wear P.P. clothing with gloves and eye protection.
The guidelines deal with every aspect of using lime such as:
- Materials
- Mixing
- Use
- Curing
