White Oak · The look

White Oak is engineered oak finished with a white pigment in the oil, so the grain shows through a pale surface. Two boards: a smooth Weybridge plank and a deep brushed Victorian Antique board, both oiled rather than lacquered.

Pale without the yellow
A white oil counters the amber that plain oil gives oak. The floor reads cool and pale in daylight and softens to a warm cream under artificial light, which is the tone most schemes are actually after.
Smooth or deep brushed
The Weybridge White Oiled board is smooth and reads clean and modern. The Victorian Antique White is deep brushed with an aged, mixed surface, and the white pigment sits in the brushed grain so the texture shows as fine pale lines.
Oiled, so repairable
Both boards are oiled. A white oil can be topped up locally where it wears, using the manufacturer's white maintenance oil rather than a clear one, which would darken the patch.
Will a white oak floor stay white?
It will stay pale. The pigment in the oil slows the amber tone that oak develops in daylight, but does not stop the wood mellowing altogether. Keep it up with the manufacturer's white maintenance oil rather than a clear oil, which would warm the colour where it is applied.
Which is the more practical white board?
The deep brushed Victorian Antique White, because its texture and aged variation absorb marks that a smooth pale floor would show. The smooth Weybridge board is the cleaner look and asks for doormats and felt pads in return.
Can white oak go over underfloor heating?
Both boards are listed as compatible with underfloor heating. Keep the surface temperature within the limit in the specification and let the boards acclimatise in the heated room before laying.
How do I order the right amount?
Use the calculator on any product page, or order by box or pallet, we add 10% for cuts and waste automatically.
Do you deliver UK-wide and can I get a sample first?
Yes, kerbside pallet delivery nationwide, and samples from £1.99 so you can check colour and finish at home first.

In depth

Choosing white engineered oak

White oak here does not mean a pale species; it means European oak finished with a white-pigmented oil. The pigment does two things: it counters the amber cast that ordinary oil gives oak, and it settles into the open grain so the figure of the wood shows as fine pale lines against a slightly paler ground. The result is a floor that reads cool and chalky in daylight and warms to cream in the evening.

The two boards are different characters. The Weybridge White Oiled Oak is a smooth, Classic grade plank at 190 mm by 1900 mm with a 3 mm wear layer; it is the clean, modern version and suits open-plan rooms with white walls. The Victorian Antique White Oak is 15 mm thick, 220 mm by 2200 mm, deep brushed and hard wax oiled with a 4 mm wear layer and the Antique Effect grade's aged variation; it is the version for a period room or a coastal scheme where a little texture is wanted. Both are tongue and groove, micro-bevelled, listed as compatible with underfloor heating, and carry a 15 year manufacturer's warranty.

Because both boards are oiled, both can be maintained locally: a worn patch is cleaned and re-oiled rather than the whole floor being sanded. The one rule is to use the manufacturer's white maintenance oil, not a clear one. A clear oil darkens the patch it is applied to and the repair shows.

A pale floor shows dark marks and grit more than a mid tone does, and a smooth pale floor most of all. If the room is a hallway or a kitchen, the deep brushed board is the more forgiving of the two, and the washed grey boards are worth a look as a close, slightly darker alternative.
