You should have a professional installer in your area take a look at your home so you can discuss what end result you are wanting. You may need to use an engineered wood. This is still an all wood product and is much more dimensionally stable than solid wood. This is a huge advantage if you are in an older home or in the midwest where humidity levels can drastically change from season to season. A solid wood will cup or curl if humidity and moisture levels are not managed. Your installer should do a moisture test before installation to make sure the installation does not fail. All warranties will be voided if this step is not taken. Also, your transitions will need to be considered. Is the new wood floor going to butt up to tile, carpet, or vinyl? The height difference in the two products will need to be taken into consideration. You will have a greater selection of thicknesses in the engineered woods. Engineered wood should be several plys, all wood. If you choose a solid wood, the hand scraped versions are fantastic for a high traffic area with children. Hickory, Red Oak, most Brazilian Species, and even Bamboo are hard enough to take everyday traffic and still look terrific. Good luck!

Hi, I would incline to tiling the whole space in one material. Now, with that you have lots of options in terms of material choices. If you have underfloor heating I would recommend to go for porcelain tiles - they come in wide range of colours, patterns, stone and wood imitations. Marble and wood imitating tiles are very popular and timeless such as calacatta white marble, creme marfil marble, granite, slate. Wood porcelain tiles range from blonde tones, light, dark browns to almost black, zebrano. Porcelain tiles technology has evolved so much over the last decade that an untrained eye can not distinguish the porcelain from the real thing. And if you have children it's so much more practical as well. Easy to clean and maintain. However, if you don't have the option of underfloor heating I would recommend wooden flooring. Again throughout. I wouldn't break the flow with different flooring types. If you have your living room in that open plan as well, I wouldn't worry too much about changing the flooring type just because of it. You can always use large rugs to define the area and function of that space, and make it more cosy. I just completed a project with porcelain tiles throughout. You can have a look at my profile. More images are on my website. I'm happy to help so please get in touch if you need more specific info. I offer lots of free information on my blog and via social media. I'm more than happy to point you in the right direction. Hope this helps. Karolina

I love the cabin in the woods, its a intimate setting where you are drawn to the outside whilst keeping snug indoors. The use of fabrics sets it apart from the usual cold designs of other modern rooms. The attention detail in the selection of furniture pieces keeps it modern yet functional.

Nestled in the heart of Co. Sligo is a beautiful Luxury Country House called ‘Coopershill’. Home to the ‘O Hara family now for over 8 generations, this beautiful magestic house has been a home to many family members, and is now a haven for a magical visit by lots of people from all over the world. Simon O’Hara is the current owner, and he contacted our company ‘SheepWool Insulation’ after meeting us at trade show and then doing a little more research into our product on our website. The attic at Coopershill needed to be ‘re-insulated’ and Simon knew he wanted a product that would not only be a fantastic insulation quality material but he wanted an insulation product that would be natural, kind to the building and let it breathe - after all, it had stood the test of time since 1774 and he wanted to protect surrounding timbers and let it continue to breathe for another 1,774 years!! We explained that by using our 100% Pure SheepWool Insulation, Simon would have the reassurance of knowing that once installed, he would NEVER have to worry about his attic insulation requirements again, i.e. because it is 100% pure Sheepwool, it will last and last, as there is nothing in it to break down. Before removing the old insulation Simon measured up the area and discovered that most of the joists were not standard widths, some were 380mm wide, some 300mm wide and some 570mm wide! We explained that our insulation rolls can be very easily cut either with a roller cutter or Stanley knife, so Simon opted to ‘hire’ a roller cutter hoping to ease the task a little. ‘Comfort’ insulation rolls were used to insulate this attic space as these have a high insulation value and are ideal for the attic floor area. Simon wanted to lay 100mm between joists so the 4m length rolls were used, he also decided to opt for the 570mm wide product so that the team could easily ‘cut’ to fit without any waste. Simon then wanted to ensure that any heat generated in the House would stay in the house and not escape into the attic so they then also put another ‘cross lap’ layer across the joists and for this purpose they also used ‘Comfort’ rolls and he went for the 150mm product here. Again they opted for the 570mm wide product. Simons team completed the job in really quick time as the product was so simple an easy to use., and as Simon was on site throughout, I asked him what he and the guys thought of the product, and if it met with his personal expectations.., his comments are here : ‘The wool was wonderful to work with and none of the irritation of artificial insulation. What interested us particularly is: It is environmentally friendly which is a fit with our ethos. Long Lasting (in a house this size,I dont’ ever want to have to do a job twice!) Its ability to absorb and release moisture. This house is built with mortar which also allows moisture to pass through it. Artificial insulation can create a permanent moisture barrier which can lead to condensation and then mould and rot. It is fire retardant. It was bought from an Irish Company who were a pleasure to deal with. Most importantly of all, the house is warmer and holds its heat far better!! Thank you Simon for those comments and I’m glad that you all found it so nice to work with. You have done the work now so sit back and relax in the knowledge that our 100% pure SheepWool Insulation will take over from here and continue to work for years and years now and keep this beautiful house cosy and healthy.
