Key takeaways
What Kahrs’ Approved Retailer Status Actually Means
Kahrs sells through a national network of approved retailers. Buying from one affects three practical things.
First, the warranty. Kahrs’ warranty is 30 years on the Piazza, Large Herringbone and Smaland collections and 20 years on Ingresso. Kahrs Life has separate terms on the veneer range. Fitting to Kahrs’ installation guidelines is part of the terms, whether we fit the floor or your own fitter does. Check the warranty conditions for the collection you choose.
Second, specification accountability. An approved Kahrs retailer is held to Kahrs’ specification, fitting and aftersales standards. The advice you receive on subfloor preparation, underfloor heating compatibility, expansion gaps, acclimatisation and Woodloc installation is Kahrs’ own guidance, not third-party interpretation. Full commissioning detail in our engineered wood + underfloor heating guide.
Third, full live range access. Approved retailers can order Kahrs’ current 217-product UK catalogue rather than working from a frozen older sub-set or discontinued lines. Check that any shortlisted Kahrs retailer is quoting from Kahrs’ 2026 catalogue and not an older list.
The Kahrs Range in Altrincham
We can supply any of Kahrs’ current UK collections from our Altrincham showroom. The boards on display in the Wood Room let you stand on the actual floor before you choose. For the other collections, we work from Kahrs’ specifications and photographs.
On Display in the Altrincham Wood Room
Available for Order Across the Wider Range
The collections we do not have on display are still available through Grosvenor. That includes Kahrs’ flagship Lux Collection (12 products), the colourful Beyond Retro (12 products), Flora (11 products), European Naturals (11 products) and specialist ranges like Boardwalk, Zen and Fauna. We quote them in the same way as the rest of the range.
On our website Kahrs products are listed as request a quote rather than with a price. Our Kahrs flooring prices guide explains where each collection sits on the Kahrs price ladder.
How the Process Works
From first enquiry to floor-down typically takes between three and six weeks for a Kahrs domestic project, depending on collection lead time, room dimensions and fitting timeline. The sequence runs like this:
1. Send your enquiry. Use the enquiry form on our contact page, or message us on WhatsApp. Include rough room dimensions, the Kahrs collection or product code you’re interested in (or describe the look and we’ll shortlist for you), your timeframe and whether you need supply-only or supply-and-fit.
2. We come back with a quote. It covers the Kahrs floor, fitting if you want it and any underlay or accessories the job needs. If you already have a Kahrs quote from another retailer, send it over and we will look at it. If your project needs anything extra to meet Kahrs’ installation guidelines (subfloor preparation, underfloor heating checks, Woodloc requirements) we flag it at the start. For fitting costs, see our engineered wood installation cost guide.
3. We schedule the Kahrs delivery and the fit. Kahrs supplies to your address through the approved channel. If you’ve asked for fitting, the regular team of fitters we know and trust schedules around the delivery date and the floor’s acclimatisation period. The floor is signed off against Kahrs’ installation standards on completion. Full context in our engineered wood installation guide.

Why Local Buyers Choose Grosvenor for Kahrs
Most of the buyers who come to us for Kahrs in the Altrincham area fall into one of three project types. Understanding which one applies tends to shape the conversation quickly.
New-build and renovation homeowners in South Manchester and Cheshire. Often working with an interior designer or architect who has specified Kahrs at drawing stage. They want to see the actual boards in daylight before signing off. They also want one quote that covers the floor and the fitting. The Kahrs boards in the Wood Room cover most of what gets specified locally. For a collection we do not have on display, we work from Kahrs’ specifications and photographs.
Trade buyers on domestic contracts. Property developers, main contractors and design-and-build firms fitting Kahrs on client projects across the North West. Grosvenor+ gives trade members their member pricing on Kahrs and priority scheduling on supply and fit.
Sample-first researchers. Homeowners at the shortlisting stage of a Kahrs project. They have three or four brands in play (usually Kahrs plus V4 plus Ted Todd or Woodpecker) and want to stand on the actual boards to make the decision. The Wood Room’s 24/7 access model means no appointment friction and no sales pressure. Come, look, take colour reference photos, decide in your own time.
The common thread is buying from an approved Kahrs retailer that can show you the boards, supply the full range and fit to Kahrs’ guidelines.

Start Floor FinderFrequently Asked Questions
Are you the only Kahrs retailer in Altrincham?
We’re an approved Kahrs retailer for the North West. There are other approved Kahrs retailers within driving distance across the wider region. Kahrs’ UK network can be checked directly with Kahrs if you want to compare against alternatives.
Do you supply Kahrs outside Altrincham?
Yes. Kahrs supply-only orders through Grosvenor ship across the UK mainland. Supply-and-fit is available for customers in Altrincham, Manchester and Cheshire.
Can I get Kahrs cheaper somewhere else?
Send us any Kahrs quote you already have and we will look at it. Kahrs publishes recommended retail prices, but what you pay also depends on the products, delivery and fitting, so compare like for like.
Is the Kahrs warranty included?
Yes. Every Kahrs floor comes with Kahrs’ residential warranty. Fitting to Kahrs’ installation guidelines is part of the terms. Our supply and fit jobs follow those guidelines. For supply-only orders, your fitter needs to follow them too. Terms vary by collection: 30 years on Piazza, Large Herringbone and Smaland, 20 years on Ingresso and separate Kahrs Life terms on the veneer range.
How much does Kahrs flooring cost fitted?
Kahrs is quoted per project, supply only or supply and fit. The fitting cost depends on room shape, subfloor condition, installation method and format (straight plank, herringbone or chevron). Send us your project details and we come back with a fitted quote. For how each collection is priced, see our Kahrs flooring prices guide.
Which Kahrs collection is best for underfloor heating?
Kahrs lists its floors as suitable for underfloor heating when installed to its guidelines. The surface temperature ceiling is 27C. The 3-layer parquet construction copes best with heating cycles, so Smaland, Ingresso and the wider 3-layer range are our first choice for whole-floor underfloor heating. Piazza and Large Herringbone are 2-layer parquet and still suitable, but the 3-layer builds are more forgiving.
Still Comparing Kahrs Against Other Brands?
If Kahrs is on your shortlist alongside other premium engineered oak brands, our Kahrs alternative guide compares Kahrs against the other premium brands we supply (GF own-brand, V4, Parador, Ted Todd and Woodpecker) with a clear “pick this when” line for each. It’s worth reading alongside the Kahrs brand review if you want the full picture before committing to a quote. Buyers who have visited Ted Todd’s Warrington Design Centre and want to explore Kahrs as a Swedish alternative should read our Ted Todd Warrington alternative guide. For the direct Kahrs vs Grosvenor own-brand cross-shop see our Kahrs vs GF engineered wood guide.
