Timber Flooring

Timber flooring is unique and can last a lifetime, which makes it a highly desirable option. The planks will vary in price according to plant species and availability, but are generally more expensive than other flooring types.

Other factors can add to the cost. For example, an uneven or concrete subfloor will require work to prepare it for the planks.

The planks are generally thicker than other flooring types, which means your floor height may raise a few millimetres. This will impact whether or not doors can open, how you step off or onto the bottom stair, and whether or not your dishwasher can be removed from its nook.

The timber itself may also require a special finish, depending on which product you choose. We have solutions to all these challenges and can advise during our free assessment. Contact us for a free assessment or quote.

If you plan to rent your home or property, vinyl or engineered oak would be a more affordable and lower-maintenance choice.

If you have an apartment and it’s not on the ground floor, check the body corporate laws - you may need soundproofing installed below the floorboards, which will add to the cost.

If your floor has moisture or damp issues we recommend vinyl or engineered oak, or a moisture protection layer, depending on the severity. Timber floors will absorb moisture and expand, making them unsuitable for poorly sealed below-ground floors such as basements.

We're proud of doing our job right and pleasing our clients. We can identify (and resolve) any dampness, subfloor inconsistencies, and other troubling conditions before installation, so you have a long-lasting and beautiful floor.
