Is Junckers suitable for use with underfloor heating? add
Yes, Junckers' flooring is suitable for use with underfloor heating. In fact, our floors have been used successfully with all major underfloor heating systems for many decades. The reason why our solid hardwood floors work so well with underfloor heating is that the floorboards have a consitent and uniformly low moisture content and they can be fitted with our mechanical clip system which works very well over underfloor heating. We always recommend that your underfloor heating contractor reviews our technical documents.

What is the difference between a solid wood floor and an engineered floor? add
An engineered floorboard is most often a product combined of several materials; A wooden top layer, a lamella core and a backing layer.
A solid wooden floor is, as the name indicates, a floorboard made of 100% solid wood.
There are many differences between these two types of flooring, but one of them is the fact that a solid wood floor can be sanded multiple times, which is not the case with an engineered floor. This means floor can be refurbished and refinished to as new condition new several times over many decades, a truly long-lasting flooring solution.
Webshop specific information
Can I buy Junckers flooring anywhere in the UK? add
The special offers in our webshop may not be available from our distributors due to the specialist nature of the individual product, for example, its colour or dimensions. You can order a free sample from us.
Our core product range and some special products are available through our network of distributors.
Will all Junckers' distributors stock all of the special offer floors? add
No. Not all our distributors will be participating in all stock offers so make sure to check with them before you travel.
See “where to buy”.
All special offer promotions can be shipped directly from Denmark to your home.
Will I have to pay a delivery charge? add
Yes. Standard delivery to the United Kingdom is £250.
Why have the prices been reduced? add
The price of our floors can be reduced for any of the following reasons, none of which have anything to do with quality.
- Sometimes we have left over stock from large, specialist commercial projects that have been made to order and is no longer needed because the projects have been completed.
- As part of our flooring production, we buy raw material in many different dimensions. Not all material can be made to suit our standard product programme. In order to utilise all the raw wood we source, we also make flooring with resized stave lengths, board widths and thicknesses.
- Floors that have been sanded once and then re-treated. We sometimes sand floors and re-treat them if the surface has been superficially damaged. By sanding and refinishing, the floorboards revert to perfect condition.
We make sure to use 100% of the forested timber. Junckers’ residual wood (sawdust, wood chips, saw-cut log ends and other residual wood from the production) is supplied to a wood-fired power plant, which in turn supplies electricity to Junckers as well as the Danish national grid.
Can I get more of the same floor at a later date? add
At Junckers, we pride ourselves on the continuity of supply of our products. In most cases, our central product range will always be available. However, some specialist items may not be available in the same dimension or at the same price at a future date.

Junckers will take control of the issue from this point and rectify your order.
