laminates and multi-layered products, they have a better tolerance to slightly uneven subfloors.
Pre-finished wood has another major advantage over unfinished timber, because it will not gap unevenly. It goes down easily and is ready to use straightaway, rather than having to be laid out, acclimatised for four to six weeks and then fixed, sanded and sealed in place. This represents a considerable saving in man-hours and logistical planning.
Fitting with a floating system can offer major benefits in terms of what goes underneath. Solid hardwood is a product naturally warm to the touch and is inherently quieter underfoot than cheaper finishes. This can be further enhanced by using sound-absorbing underlays, especially important in multi-unit developments where transferred noise can pose real problems for occupants. Prospective buyers can be reassured that hardwood floors can be quiet floors!

Underfloor heating is growing in popularity and, whilst some solid floors are unsuitable for this type of application, Junckers produces flooring with low moisture content which is fully compatible with most underfloor heating systems, including electrical and hot water systems.
For both developers and contractors, there is also a real benefit in choosing a quality solid hardwood floor, as the top brands carry manufacturers’ guarantees. Pre-finished hardwood flooring offers another sales advantage too; because it is a smooth, continuous surface which cannot harbour dust or germs, it is an ideal environment for 'healthy living' or allergy-conscious buyers. All Junckers floors carry the Danish Indoor Climate label.
Fashions in interiors come and go, but hardwood remains one of the most traditional and best-liked flooring materials. Modern manufacturing processes, high-tech factory seals and fitter-friendly systems make them easy to specify, easy to install and easy to live with. Above all though, people just like both the look and the feel of real wooden floors!
