About this product

We don’t just reclaim the finest antique woods; we restore them – beautifully. This gorgeous golden-hued oak floor perfectly exemplifies the skills our artisans’ have honed over decades.

What initially appears to be an uncomplicated background of golden-brown colours quickly reveals much more. Look beyond the laboriously applied Burnished Hardwax Oil coating to see distinctive dark natural and man-made salients. They reflect the oak’s long and varied history, with each block, plank, and panel telling its own unique story.

Because long-term durability and stability are paramount to the success of an antique floor, we’ve added an extra-thick 6mm wear layer onto our 2-ply engineered 20mm boards here, meaning Babington will last lifetimes, telling yet more stories, if cared for correctly.

We have an international reputation for our skills in reclaiming and restoring antique wood, such as this Oak. The wood we restore can be many hundreds of years old and we take this responsibility very seriously, we just hope you enjoy these floors as much as we enjoyed developing them.

Architectural Details

Add the perfect finishing touch with our architectural details all of which have been specifically designed and manufactured for Ted Todd. 

Mouldings, trims, beads, skirting, architrave, treads and risers are architectural details that are an essential part of every flooring installation. Special consideration should be given to floor-to-floor transitions, floor-to-wall design, and how floors progress across multiple levels.

Architectural details give spaces cohesion and create a harmonious flow, softening connections and hiding delineations. All of these  details are most effective when they work seamlessly with your floor. This is why our floors and architectural details are created by us, to complement each other.

Installation

Installing a wood floor is no mean feat and we always recommend it is undertaken by a professional flooring fitter.

Everything you need to know to install and care for your floor can be found in our installation guides, which you can find here.

Explore our brochures

Our brochures allow you to explore all our floors in one place. Many of our floors are shown through customer imagery to give you an idea of the size, scale and tone to help you decide which is right for your project or home.

Care and maintenance

To prevent any potential harm to your floors, it’s crucial to choose the right cleaning products. Unlike many generic floor cleaners that contain solvents or bleach, which can lead to floor damage and discolouration, our Ted Todd specialist cleaning products have been designed to protect and promote floor longevity.

  • If your floor has a lacquered or hardened oil finish, use Care System 1.
  • If your floor has a natural oil or hardwax oil finish, use Care System 2.
  • If your floor is white and has a lacquered or hardened oil finish, use Care System 3.
  • If your floor is white and has a natural oil or hardwax oil finish, use Care System 4.

Sustainability

Since we began manufacturing wood floors, we’ve been driven by our deep-rooted commitment to the environment. We’re the market leader in sustainably sourced wood floors. Since 1997, we have been FSC® compliant, and the great majority of our wood flooring and cladding options are FSC® or PEFC certified and we have many third-party accreditations.

Most companies will charge extra for this certification, but we include this as a commitment to a better, healthier planet for years to come.

This means you can rest assured, that when you choose a Ted Todd floor, you are investing in the future of our planet, and helping to keep spaces healthy on the inside. Read more about our commitment to sustainability.
