Frequently Asked Questions
Is Australian timber flooring suitable for homes with pets?
Yes, with proper care and maintenance, Australian timber flooring can withstand the wear and tear of pets. However, it's essential to trim your pet's nails regularly and clean up any accidents promptly to prevent damage.
Can I install Australian timber flooring in my bathroom?
While some Australian timber species are more moisture-resistant than others, it's generally not recommended to install engineered timber flooring in bathrooms due to the high humidity levels. Consider hybrid flooring as an alternative.
How do I prevent my Australian timber flooring from fading in sunlight?
Direct sunlight can cause some colour fading over time. Consider using curtains or blinds to protect your flooring from excessive sunlight, especially during peak hours.

Solid timber flooring is made from a single piece of wood, while engineered timber flooring consists of a top layer of real timber veneer bonded to a plywood base. Engineered timber offers greater stability and resistance to moisture compared to solid timber.
