WHAT THIS FLOOR ACTUALLY IS
Menton 1018 — the floor laid in herringbone
Menton, French Riviera · 43.77° N · 7.50° E · Warm Riviera
Handles everyday spills — kitchens and dry interiors, detailed correctly
Water-resistant for everyday use. Not a waterproofing system. Not a flood-proof claim.
Warm underfoot — ready for underfloor heating
Works over underfloor heating. The planks lock to each other with a glueless click and float over the base — a fast, clean install with no adhesive, in many cases straight over an existing floor, and a single plank can be lifted and replaced later.
Made for daily life — chairs, shoes, pets
A hard-wearing commercial-grade surface.
Real long planks — a calmer, continuous floor
Full 1.83 m boards with a fine four-sided micro-bevel — our declared joint.
Ultra-matte — reads as real floor, never plastic
A soft matte surface with no shine.

Good to know Think twice for a cool, mineral scheme — this ground leans gently warm.

A starting palette · one floor, five companions

Limewash beside warm cream — gentle on gentle. A dark-wood anchor and a black-iron line keep it from floating away.

BEFORE YOU ASK · WHAT A QUOTE HERE MEANS

A quote is a plan, not a number in the air.

What it includes

A quote is itemised line by line — boards for your area, edge and threshold profiles, and anything else the job needs. Nothing bundled, nothing assumed.

How it arrives

Send the rooms and their approximate area — by form or WhatsApp. A person, not an autoresponder, replies personally with the itemised quote.

Why no public price list

A floor is priced from its specification: the model, the area, the condition of the existing base and the finishing details. A number published before those are known would be a guess — we don’t guess. Asking costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

MENTON 1018 · 43.77° N · 7.50° E

After cool stone at the door, a room should feel softer.

A light, warm cream — half a step warmer than neutral. Past the threshold, where cool marble stops, the floor reads as gentle private warmth, soft under reflected Riviera light.

Neutral is the safe answer. This is neutral with the chill taken out.

Ochre plaster · cool Carrara marble · a grey-slate accent

If this is the floor that stayed with you — here is how it continues:

Installation is a floating click system — no adhesive.

A person replies — never an autoresponder
