The right tone of wood

We’d recommend using a stain and then a clear varnish on top. We’ve seen a few floors where a coloured varnish has been used which over time inevitably wears away and gets the odd chip and scratch. As the colour chips away, any marks are then really visible. If you stain and then varnish the floor, for the most part only the varnish will wear away leaving any chips less visible.

Choosing the right tone of wood is key as it forms the foundation of the room and should fit seamlessly with other furniture pieces and accessories.
