Timber Flooring — Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between solid and engineered timber?+
Solid timber is milled from a single piece of wood — more stable long-term and can be sanded multiple times. Engineered timber has a real wood veneer over a stable plywood core — better for humid climates and slab substrates, and generally more affordable.
Can timber flooring be installed over concrete slabs?+
Engineered timber is well-suited to concrete slabs using glue-down or floating methods. Solid timber can also go over concrete with the right preparation. We assess moisture levels in the slab before recommending an installation method.
How long does timber flooring last?+
Quality solid hardwood floors regularly last 50+ years and can be sanded and refinished 5–8 times. Engineered timber with a 3mm+ wear layer can be refinished 2–3 times. The total lifespan is 25–40 years with proper care.
Can timber flooring be used in kitchens?+
Yes, with care. Timber handles kitchen spills when cleaned up promptly. It's not suitable for laundries or bathrooms where ongoing moisture is a concern. For wet-prone kitchens, engineered timber is a better choice than solid.
How long does installation take?+
A typical 3-bedroom home (80–100sqm) takes 2–3 days including acclimatisation, installation, and finishing. Glue-down methods require 24 hours cure time before foot traffic.
