About Oulton Oak Versailles
Smoky grey-brown with a cool, mushroom tone, Oulton Oak Versailles is a darker, moodier take on parquet. The strips vary from soft taupe to deeper charcoal brown, which picks out the framed borders and the interlaced diagonal lattice inside each panel. Brushing gives the grain a fine texture, and as a select grade the surface is clean, with only small, occasional knots. The oiled finish keeps it matt and understated.
It suits contemporary living rooms, dining rooms, studies and entrance halls, and works in kitchens with sensible care. Grey, white and stone-coloured walls, charcoal sofas, black metal, marble and smoked glass all sit well with it, and it brings a modern edge to period properties.
Laid in 600 x 600mm Versailles panels, the floor becomes the centrepiece of the room. The repeating grid of framed squares gives order and structure, while the lattice inside each panel adds movement.
There is a 3mm real oak top layer on a stable multi-layer base, so it can be sanded and refinished later. It suits underfloor heating up to 27°C.

Frequently asked questions about Oulton Oak Versailles
How many packs of Oulton Oak Versailles do I need?
Each pack covers 2.88 m². Measure the floor area, add 15% for cutting, as patterned floors need more cuts than plank, then divide by 2.88 and round up. For a 15 m² room that is 6 packs.
Is Oulton Oak Versailles waterproof?
No. It is real wood, so it is water-resistant rather than waterproof. Wipe up spills promptly. It works well in kitchens with sensible care, but for bathrooms and utility rooms choose GF Glue Down LVT or GF Click SPC.
Can Oulton Oak Versailles go over underfloor heating?
Yes. It is suitable for underfloor heating, water or electric, up to a floor surface temperature of 27°C.
How is it fitted?
It can be fitted by gluing down or nailing, with a 10–12mm expansion gap at the walls. To keep the GF guarantee, follow the GF installation guide and use a competent professional fitter.
Can it be sanded?
Yes. The real oak top layer can be sanded and refinished. The thicker the top layer, the more times that can be done, so a 4mm or 6mm top layer gives you more life than 3mm.
Where does Versailles flooring work best?
Anywhere you want the floor to be the feature: dining rooms, hallways, drawing rooms and large living spaces. The panel pattern needs a bit of room to show off.
What guarantee does it have?
It has a 25-year residential guarantee. To keep the GF guarantee, follow the GF installation guide and use a competent professional fitter.
Can I order a free sample?
Yes. You can order up to five free samples, and we aim to send them within 3 to 5 days, so you can see the colour in your own light before you buy.
