Solid hardwood flooring is the ‘real deal,’ it dates back as early as the 1600s of the Baroque Era! It typically varies in thickness between 12mm to 21mm and as the name suggests, the planks are ‘solid’ all the way through.
They’re kiln-dried, precision-milled and end-matched with T&G joint systems. The ones we sell are raw (unfinished) and will need to be glued, top or secret nailed, sanded and polished post-installation.
Engineered boards on the other hand consist of a thin layer of timber veneer, varying in thickness between 0.6mm to 6mm. The rest of the plank is comprised of either cross-plywood or hevea hardwood (rubberwood) construction base.
These boards almost always come pre-finished and will either need to be floated using underlay or direct stuck using adhesive with the possibility of nails as well.
Unfortunately not – we’re a supply only company. However, our sister company Mint Floors and Shutters can offer this service within metropolitan areas of Sydney and southern regions covering the Illawarra (Wollongong, Shellharbour and Kiama) and north towards Central Coast suburbs.
Absolutely. Please email us with your full name, postal address, and best contact number along with the sample(s) you’re after.
