The beautiful boards in our Harvard range will add a level of sophistication to any room. Each board is chosen for its individual character including knots, and cracks. They are carefully filled, sanded, scraped by hand to produce a floor of unique beauty. Finished with UV oil.
Harvard is a tongue and grooved board which can be installed as a floated floor over an underlay, or fully bonded to the sub-floor using the correct procedure and materials. A fully bonded installation is recommended over under floor heating. Read our comprehensive installation guide here. We recommend you also read our technical information.

Higherground have been a fabulous business to deal with. All enquires were handled quickly and professionally - Gerard helped guide us through the many options and everything went exactly to plan. We could not be more pleased or have chosen a better company to deal with. Cannot recommend highly enough: 10/10

An excellent company to do business with. We bought a pure wool rug on line which was 10% cheaper than other stockists. The rug arrived within the specified time frame. Queries were dealt with polite and promptly. I thoroughly recommend Higherground.

The folks at Higherground were extremely helpful in easing the painful path of deciding weave/material/colour/pattern/finish etc right through to agreeing a fitting programme. The fitter we had, Ben, was always on time, always polite and very professional. We are delighted with the end result and more than happy to recommend Higherground.

Really excellent company. Gerard was incredibly helpful and accomodating throughout the process, and very patient with us. We had originally calculated based on 4m widths, and as these weren't available, Gerard reconfigured based on our room sizes to use 5m widths whilst minimising wastage. Delivery was also very quick, and the value excellent.

It was a real pleasure working with Higherground. They understood what I was looking for and were able to progress the order without any delay or me needing to chase up. They were also really polite and a pleasure to talk to and email. This makes such a change. The carpet was perfect and exactly what I asked for, and they provided excellent customer service which is very unusual.

Can highly recommend Higher Ground. Sisal carpet was the only choice for us and the look that we wanted for our home. Ben did a totally AMAZING job of fitting this carpet around both open stairs as well as intricate features of the wall / staircase and floor. Wonderful stuff and really appreciated the personal interest / care of Gerard along the way.
