Wide Board Floors
Hurford Hardwood has developed a range of flooring that spectacularly takes pride of place in any application. The prestige graded wide boards seamlessly meld with contemporary style homes, while the grades displaying greater natural feature will add warmth and charm to more rustic designs. The wider boards are available in two profiles, being 180mm x 21mm and 210mm x 23mm. They can be laid over ply or battens and must be top nailed. The wider boards distinctively emphasize the natural character of timber flooring. By using fewer boards of a greater surface area, natural features such as back sawn grain are dispersed calmly throughout the floor, giving each individual board personality and a story of its own. Hurford offers a broad selection of species and grades in wide board profiles that are nothing short of breathtaking.

Joinery
Hurford Hardwood produces small quantities of extremely high quality joinery grade timber in a variety of species. These large joinery sections are ideal for seamlessly blending a stunning Hurford floor with a staircase or kitchen bench top to create a truly individual masterpiece. Not all species are available in joinery please see product matrix for available species.

Grades
Hurford Hardwood endeavours to maximise the length recovery of each and every board throughout the milling process, by visually grading one grade to one board. Please note that the length of flooring boards is proportionate to the length of available logs, as such shorter lengths are becoming far more common.

Select Grade
Select grade denotes a minimal degree of natural feature. As a naturally occurring product, all timber flooring contains some features such as pinhole, gum vein and surface check. Features in Select Grade, although visible, do not dominate the appearance of the floor.

Prestige Grade
A high-level blend of grades, Prestige contains all the Select Grade and the upper part of Standard grade. This grade offers subtle features, including gum veins, natural pinholes and various other features. Slightly more features in size and quantity than Select grade can be expected in Prestige Grade.

Standard Grade
Standard grade relates to a moderately featured board. Flooring in this grade contains a regulated degree of feature, experiencing a greater degree of natural pinhole and gum vein. These features will not only be greater in quantity than Select grade but are also larger in size.

Feature Grade
Feature grade is, as the name suggests, high feature flooring. Each board is a veritable sea of natural feature, containing large knots, gum veins, pinholes and even some holes that can be filled during the laying process. Features will be greater in quantity and larger in size than Standard grade, all while maintaining a structural integrity of the product.

Rustic Grade
Rustic Grade is a featured floor that contains boards up to the equivalent of Standard Grade. It may contain some features that are more prominent than Feature Grade but with the structural integrity of a Feature Grade floor.

Conservation Grade (hardWALL, barnWALL):
Making the most out of the precious resource, Conservation Grade focuses on the highest amount of natural and man-made features make this a unique product that gives a true industrial appearance.

Variations in Timber
Timber is a spectacular and versatile natural material. It yields a vast degree of variety in colour, texture and naturally occurring feature. This diversity can be apparent even between pieces selected from batches of the same species. Sanding and finishing can also effect variation in colour and may even highlight subsurface feature.

Hurford Hardwood recommends that care be taken when making a preference selection based on a single sample piece or a small area sample. In all cases, timber flooring supplied will deviate in appearance between jobs and display samples. However, it is this deviation that makes every timber floor absolutely unique.

Timber flooring, whilst seasoned and kiln dried, will continue to take up and lose moisture throughout its life depending on weather, building aspect and local climate conditions. These fluctuations in moisture levels will create some movement and changes to the surface of your floor can be expected. This is normal and may include fine surface checking, gaps between boards and changes in colour over time.
