What Makes Timber Flooring Stand Out?
Timber isn’t just chosen for looks, it’s also incredibly resilient and can last for decades with the right care. Its durability makes it suitable for high-traffic zones like living areas, hallways and even some commercial spaces. Each board has a unique grain, so your floor will always feel one of a kind. Timber is also a great choice for people looking to reduce allergens in the home, as it doesn’t trap dust or particles like other materials can.
If you’re after a flooring option that combines longevity with elegance, timber flooring is a reliable and rewarding choice for almost any environment.
What is timber flooring made from?
Timber flooring is made from natural hardwood or softwood species that are milled into planks. Solid timber flooring uses a single piece of wood per plank, often from species like oak, blackbutt, spotted gum or jarrah. Engineered timber flooring combines a thin layer of real hardwood on top with multiple layers of plywood or composite beneath, offering more stability in varying climates. Each plank is sanded, sealed and sometimes prefinished. The natural grain, warmth and durability make timber flooring a premium choice. Its organic material means no two boards are the same, giving every installation a unique and timeless look.
What’s the difference between solid timber and engineered timber flooring?
Solid timber flooring is made from a single piece of hardwood, offering exceptional durability and the ability to be sanded and refinished multiple times. Engineered timber has a real hardwood top layer bonded to plywood or composite layers beneath, making it more dimensionally stable and suitable for areas with fluctuating humidity. Engineered options can be installed over concrete or underfloor heating, while solid timber often requires a timber subfloor. Though both provide the same surface appearance, engineered timber is often easier to install and generally more affordable. Choosing between the two depends on your budget, installation site and long-term plans.
Is timber flooring suitable for all rooms?
Timber flooring is ideal for living areas, bedrooms, hallways and dining rooms. However, it’s not recommended for wet areas like bathrooms or laundries due to its susceptibility to moisture and swelling. Engineered timber, which offers more moisture resistance, can sometimes be used in kitchens if well-sealed and maintained. For areas with high foot traffic, harder wood species like spotted gum or blackbutt are more durable. Rugs can help protect high-use zones. Always consider each room’s function, exposure to water and traffic levels before installing timber. When properly maintained, timber brings timeless warmth and character to most interior spaces.
