Kingsford | Madera Oak flooring | Solid 42mm Treads | Custom finish

European Oak Flooring + Custom American Oak Stair Detailing
Builder: Truman Building

Project Overview

Kingsford House is a refined architectural build where premium materials meet detailed execution. Madera Floors was engaged by Truman Building to complete a custom flooring and stair solution across key circulation areas of the home. This project balanced the warmth and consistency of European Oak flooring with bespoke American Oak stair components, precision-engineered for a seamless material transition and architectural finish.

Scope of Work:
  • Supply and install engineered European Oak flooring (trowel-glued) to stair landings and hallway
  • Fabrication and installation of custom 43mm timber nosings at the stairwell edge and hallway termination
  • Supply and fit 3mm flatbar at carpet thresholds for clean transitions
  • Manufacture and install 285mm x 43mm double-laminated American Oak stair treads, set with a 5mm shadow line for a contemporary floating aesthetic on steel stringers
  • On-site sanding and polishing of stair treads, custom colour-matched to the Madera White European Oak flooring finish

Design Notes

The pairing of American Oak stair treads with European Oak flooring delivers a seamless visual experience — unified through on-site colour matching and consistent grain tones. The 5mm shadow detail provides a subtle architectural break between steel and timber, elevating the staircase as both functional and sculptural. Each element, from nosing fabrication to threshold transitions, reflects Madera Floors’ commitment to precision and material integrity.
