Hi everyone - I'm hoping someone will be kind enough to let me know a wood flooring (not laminate) that they are very happy with - which is widely available, not expensive and easy to install. There is so much out there - don't know where to start. I don't mind what sort of wood it is
( not pine!). I was reading comments on the Wickes web site ( which is very useful) that some tongue and grooves are agony to lay - not fitting together and some need endless heavy hammering ( which I need to avoid - cross neighbours !). Also, aside from everything else - I understand some new wood floors crackle and creak badly - so any recommendations would be so appreciated!
