Herringbone & Parquet Flooring for Bedrooms in Hanover
In Hanover (BN2) bedrooms we spec quieter underlays than any other room. Impact sound transfer through the floor is the single biggest complaint on any bedroom re-floor — and it's fixable at spec stage, not after. The right underlay adds £3–£6/m² and saves the whole job.

Direction of run under the bed in Hanover
In victorian villa Hanover bedrooms with bay windows or awkward chimney breasts, we plan direction to run away from the door — the eye then reads the length of the room, not the width.
Bedroom Flooring in Hanover — questions
- How do I reduce sound transfer through a Hanover bedroom floor?
- Dense acoustic underlay (3–5mm rubber-crumb or wool-fibre) as a minimum. For Hanover flats and conversions we add a floating acoustic mat below the underlay — drops impact sound by 22–28dB total.
- How long is my bedroom out of use during a Hanover fit?
- 48 hours from start to walk-on for a typical Hanover bedroom, plus 5 days for full-cure oil before rugs and heavy furniture.
- How do the boards handle a bed with castors in Hanover?
- Fine, if the castors are wide-face plastic or covered. Narrow-face steel castors on a heavy divan will dent any wood finish — we recommend felt saucers under each leg.
- Is Herringbone & Parquet Flooring too cold for a Hanover bedroom?
- Not with a hardwax oil finish and the right underlay. Oiled finishes on Hanover bedroom Herringbone & Parquet Flooring feel warmer than carpet in most measurements — surface hardness aside, the perceived temperature comes from the finish, not the material.
- What board width suits a Hanover bedroom?
- Bedroom Herringbone & Parquet Flooring in Hanover usually sits at 140–190mm — narrower than a lounge because bedrooms are smaller on average. Wide boards in a small victorian villa bedroom read out of proportion.
- Is engineered wood suitable for a Hanover bedroom?
- Yes — engineered wood in a Hanover bedroom is fine on any subfloor, works over UFH, and can be re-oiled without full sanding. It's our most-fitted bedroom material in BN2.
