Frequently Asked Questions

How long does timber flooring last?

A timber floor is harder and more durable than other surfaces. It can last a lifetime meaning less waste from renewing your flooring (unlike carpeting, which has a lifecycle of 10-15 years).

How do I care for my floor?

With every floor we install we provide a maintenance kit which includes floor cleaner and instructions on how to care for your floor. Some basics are to use a Ph neutral cleaner (Versadett by Peerless Jal is our recommendation and available at Bunnings) and use a damp mop, not a wet one. Regularly sweep your floor with a modacrylic dust broom to remove any grit that has the potential to scratch your floor.

Is timber flooring environmentally friendly?

Hardwood is more energy-efficient than other flooring surfaces and is a sustainable resource. Timber flooring also stores carbon within its cell structure ensuring the carbon is never released into the atmosphere.
