Walking with the Grain Ltd., is led by Jimmy Dunne, an apprenticed-served tradesman with over 28 years in the timber industry.
We attend all the workshops and seminars in connection to hardwood floor installation allowing us to stay current with the very latest in floor technology and information. This is a trade that sees many changes on a regular basis - changes that cannot be ignored to stay competitive and to continue to provide a high quality service. We make a point of attending floor shows in the UK, Ireland and Germany annually allowing us to see the latest in wood products, adhesives, sealants, floor lacquers and the very latest in installation tools.
This is all to the advantage of our customers and ensures our first class service. It also enables us to stay in touch with colleagues and flooring companies - companies that have been in the industry for many years.
We endeavour to use wood and deal with companies that have the FSC stamp. This stands for Forestry Stewardship Council. This is an independent membership-based organisation promoting responsible management of the world's forests through developing standards and a certification system.
With so many years in the flooring industry and having fitted many unusual patterns with inlaid borders, etc., Jimmy is considered a master hardwood floor fitter. You, the customer, can be assured of a very professional service with an eye for detail; a friendly and honest service from the first point of contact through discussion of your requirements, the installation and to the last finishing touches of your project.
We have many testimonials and some extracts are printed below
for your review. Our customers are happy to provide further references for
your peace of mind.
Mr M of Swindon
"I am writing to complement you on the professional
and prompt installation of the hardwood floor you recently fitted. We found
that the advice given, materials used and fitment of the floor were all to
the highest standard".
Mr & Mrs H of Melksham
"We are writing this letter in appreciation of the beautiful finish that
you have achieved in the installation of our wood floor. We appreciate your
professionalism and kind consideration whilst you worked in our home".
Mr & Mrs B of Oxon
"We are delighted with the finished result, which looks beautiful and
is very easy to maintain. We were very impressed with your approach both in
tendering for the work, the advice you gave us regarding the correct choice
and storage of the wood prior to installation, and the technical skill with
which the wood was laid. You paid particular attention to detail, such that
the flooring looks an integral part of the house; it already seems that it’s
always been here. Once again, many thanks for carry out the work to such a
high standard".
Ms H of Yatton Keynall
"Nowadays it's often a gamble when you employ a tradesman and so often
people are disappointed with their choice. I can honestly say that "Walking
with the Grain" did an excellent job for us and I'd happily recommend
them to anyone wanting a quality wood floor in their home."
Mr & Mrs M of Calne
"From the day of the quotation through to completion, James has been
exceptionally thorough and professional in the way he has explained in detail
every stage of the job and completed it to the exact timetable set out. He
was very respectful of our property and family throughout the process and
at the end of each day left the work area clean and tidy. James's craftmanship
skills have enhanced our property and I have no hesitation in recommending
him to others."
Mr & Mrs R of Warminster
"Thank you for all your good work and we are delighted with our floors
which have returned to their former natural glory."
Mr M of Chippenham
"Thanks for another job well done! This is the second property in which
you have laid wooden floors for us and we wouldn't dream of going to anybody
else."
