FAQs

What is the difference between solid timber and engineered timber flooring?

Both solid timber and engineered timber flooring offer the timeless beauty of natural timber. The key difference is in their construction. Solid timber flooring is made from full hardwood planks, while engineered timber flooring consists of a hardwood veneer layered over a durable plywood or composite core. This construction gives engineered timber greater resistance to moisture and humidity while maintaining the appearance of traditional timber flooring.

What types of spaces is solid timber flooring best suited for?

Solid timber flooring is ideal for living rooms, hallways and other high-traffic areas where durability and longevity are important. Its ability to be sanded and refinished multiple times allows it to last for decades. However, it may not be the best choice for areas with high moisture or humidity. If you're considering alternatives, our timber laminate flooring and luxury hybrid flooring collections offer excellent options.

Is solid timber flooring suitable for humid or coastal areas?

Solid timber flooring can be installed in some coastal or humid environments, but it requires careful planning. Because timber naturally responds to moisture, areas with consistently high humidity may benefit more from engineered timber or hybrid flooring, which provide greater dimensional stability. Our team can help determine the most suitable flooring option for your space.

Is solid timber flooring suitable for high-traffic areas?

Yes. Solid timber flooring performs exceptionally well in high-traffic areas such as living rooms and hallways. Selecting the appropriate timber species and finish can further improve resistance to wear, while protective coatings help preserve its appearance over time.

How durable is solid timber flooring?

Solid timber flooring is one of the most durable flooring options available. Constructed from full hardwood planks, it can withstand everyday wear and tear and can be sanded and refinished multiple times throughout its lifespan.

How long does solid timber flooring last?

With proper installation and ongoing maintenance, solid timber flooring can last 50 years or more. Its ability to be refinished rather than replaced makes it a valuable long-term investment for homeowners.

Does solid timber flooring expand or contract?

Yes. As a natural material, solid timber expands and contracts in response to changes in temperature and humidity. Professional installation accounts for this movement through acclimatisation, expansion gaps and appropriate fitting techniques.

How do I clean and maintain solid timber flooring?

Maintaining solid timber flooring is straightforward:

  • Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dust and grit.
  • Clean with a damp mop and a timber-safe cleaner.
  • Wipe up spills promptly.
  • Avoid excessive water and harsh cleaning chemicals.

What finishes are available for solid timber flooring?

Our solid timber flooring is available in a range of finishes, including matte, satin and gloss. These finishes enhance the timber's natural grain while providing protection against everyday wear. Our team can help you choose the finish that best suits your style and lifestyle needs.
