Ancoats Townhouse Transformation: The Modern Plank Aesthetic

This recent project in Ancoats, Manchester (M4) focused on creating a seamless, open atmosphere across a three-storey townhouse. The client selected Woodpecker Harlech Raw Oak, a premium engineered wood flooring in a classic plank format. Unlike smaller parquet blocks, these long, rustic planks elongate the rooms, enhancing the feeling of space and light in this modern city-centre home.

The Specification: Raw Oak Engineered Planks

The Harlech Raw Oak is celebrated for its pale, pared-back aesthetic. The wide-plank format showcases the natural grain and rustic details of the timber, providing a calm, neutral backdrop that perfectly suits the industrial-chic vibe of the New Islington and Ancoats area.

Installation Excellence: 155m² in 10 Days

Covering a substantial 155m², this installation required precision planning to maintain the flow of the wood grain across multiple levels.

  • Subfloor Preparation: We utilised Duralay High-Performance Underlay to provide superior acoustic insulation and a stable base for the engineered boards.

  • The Fit: Our team of expert wood flooring fitters completed the transformation in just 10 days. The installation flowed seamlessly across all three floors, ensuring the “plank run” remained straight and consistent from the hallway through to the living areas.

  • Staircase Detail: The project included complex detailing on the oak staircases, using matching nosing to continue the raw oak flow vertically between levels.

Customer Testimonial

“We wanted to say thank you to you, Lee, and the team for doing an amazing job with the floor throughout the house. From the initial showroom consultation to the expert fitting, the whole journey has been flawless.

We had been looking at a few flooring companies around Manchester City Centre, and Luxury Flooring Manchester stood out from the rest by their customer-centric approach and passion.

The work the team has done installing the flooring throughout 3 floors and 2 staircases is perfect. Great team, trustworthy, and we highly recommend these wood flooring fitters. It looks amazing; we are very happy with the final effect.”
