Timber Flooring Installation

Bring warmth to your rooms with a new timber floor. We prepare the base, set out your selected boards and finish the doorway transitions, from a single-room update to a wider renovation.

Timber floor preparation and board layout

A timber floor starts with the base beneath it. Existing coverings, surface condition, moisture and floor levels affect the preparation and the installation system. We check the accessible base and discuss any removal or remedial work before laying new boards.

Board dimensions, laying direction and doorway transitions influence the finished appearance. Tell us which rooms are involved, whether the property is occupied and whether you have selected or purchased the material. We confirm the product requirements, supply responsibility and installation method for your floor.

Timber flooring is a separate finish from ceramic, porcelain or wood-look tiles. For a tiled alternative, see floor tiling and level transitions.

Ellis team project record · February 2026

Merbau Decking timber installation on Gouger Street

We installed this interior timber floor on Gouger Street in February 2026 using the material recorded for the project as Merbau Decking. The photographs show the installation in progress and two completed views.

Timber boards partly installed with tools on the floor

The gallery follows the installation in progress through to the completed floor. If you are choosing between finishes, compare wood-grain porcelain tiles and timber flooring, then discuss the rooms and selected board material.

Flooring quotes, access and care

The room area, existing floor removal, base preparation, board format and access affect the installation quote. Tell us about furniture, adjoining finishes and when the space is available. We identify the preparation and finishing details included before work begins.

Installation and return-to-use timing depend on the selected product and site conditions. Follow the care instructions for the installed floor, including suitable cleaning methods and protection when moving furniture. We confirm these details for your material rather than applying tile-care instructions to timber.
