If restoring what you have is the better call, we'll say so.

Two minutes to a starting point.
Find a look that suits, or get an indicative cost — then book a free home survey where we confirm everything with samples in your rooms.
Make your three choices
As you choose, we'll suggest a look from the collection that usually suits — with a note on why.
An average London living room is around 20 m²; a whole flat, 60–90 m².
A ballpark only — the exact price comes after a free home survey, where we check the subfloor, measure properly and show you samples. No obligation.
The same oak, two finishes.
Drag to compare a smooth surface against a brushed, hand-oiled one. Same board — the finish decides how it catches light and wears over the years.

A family firm, and a trade we grew up in.
BAJ Flooring is run by a father and his sons. We supply, lay and restore real wood floors across London — and we do the work ourselves, from the first survey to the final threshold.
We work from North West London, which puts Hendon, Mill Hill, Harrow and Finchley on our doorstep, while we look after clients right across the capital — Chelsea, Fulham and Kensington included. However far the job, the way we work doesn't change.
Four steps, one point of contact.
Home survey
We measure, check the subfloor and bring samples into your rooms — seen in the light they'll live in.
Choose the floor
Species, format, finish and colour, agreed against your light and how the room is used.
Prep & fit
Subfloor made right, then laid by the family — the work isn't passed to sub-contractors.
Finish & care
Oiled or lacquered, detailed at the thresholds, with honest aftercare advice.

PrepCommon questions.
Engineered or solid — which is better?
Both are real wood. Engineered is more stable across changing humidity and over underfloor heating, so it suits most London homes; solid has more to sand back over a lifetime. We recommend based on your subfloor, heating and how the room is used — not on what we'd rather sell.
Can you lay over underfloor heating?
Yes, with the right species, format and build-up. Engineered boards in a suitable thickness run warm and stay stable. We check the system and subfloor first so the floor behaves once the heating cycles on and off.
Do you restore existing floorboards and parquet?
Often that's the better call. We sand with dust extraction, repair or replace boards with matched timber, fill gaps, re-lay lifted parquet and re-finish in oil or lacquer. If restoration beats replacement for your floor, we'll say so.
Can you match an existing floor or a bespoke colour?
Yes. We colour-match to a reference and produce a physical sample in your own light for sign-off before anything is finished — and we blend new into old so an extension reads as part of the original.
Which areas do you cover?
Across London and Greater London — from Chelsea, Kensington and Fulham to Hendon, Mill Hill, Harrow, Finchley and the surrounding areas. If you're nearby, just ask.
