Solid Timber Flooring

The original and to many the unbeatable. Solid timber comes in a wide range of species, most common being Spotted gum, Blackbutt, Tasmanian Oak and American Oak. It is installed with adhesive and secret nailed, coming in a wide variety of widths & thickness.

Once installed the flooring has to be sanded and polished, doubling up on the labour of pre-finished flooring, but it can last a life time, with more then a few re-sands being possible over the time that it will be install.

Solid Timber Species

With solid timber, picking the species is just the first step, there are many different aspects to consider.

Thickness and width can vary depending on species with popular thickness being set at 14mm or 19mm and widths coming in a 80mm, 110mm, 130mm and 180mm depending on the type of timber.

Then comes in the aspect of grading. There are usually 4 grades:

Select - the best available with minimal imperfections not exceeding 10% of the timber flooring
Standard & better - allowing for imperfections of 15-20%, sometimes only available is select grade in high demand.
Standard - Standard timber flooring encapsulating a mix of clean boards and boards with knots for a more natural finish
Rustic - Board from a wide range, from clean to knots to damaged with splits, perfect if aiming for a raw, natural aesthetic
