F.A.Q

Q.1: Is this a floating or laminated floor?

A: The Classic Timber Floors range are all traditional tongue and groove solid strip flooring, that require fixing. Similar to floating floors, the Classic Timber Floors are pre-finished to allow convenient and hazard-free installation. As the coatings are applied in a dust free environment using world leading technology, the finish is perfectly smooth and free of dust, leaving you with the best finished floor in Australia. The Classic Timber Floors range suits installation onto concrete slab or wood based sub-floors such as chip board or timber flooring.

Q.2: Are there any problems with installing a Classic Timber Floor onto concrete?

A: Problems only arise if insufficient measure to protect the timber from moisture ingress from the concrete are taken, or if the slab's moisture content is too high. When proper procedures for preventing moisture ingress are followed, the flooring will be long lasting, stable and attractive.

Q.3: Can Classic Timber Floor be re-sanded and coated over time?

A: Absolutely. Classic Timber Floor perfectly suits re-sanding. In fact, because it is fixed to the sub-floor and not floating, it can easily withstand the pressure of a professional floor-sanding machine, maintaining its shape and form, and allowing it to be returned to its original lustre and beauty to provide many satisfying years of ownership than most other timber flooring products.

Q.4: What is the environmental impact of choosing a Classic Timber Floor?

A: A major benefit of choosing a Classic Timber Floor is the sensitive and responsible way in which the raw materials are harvested. Coming from the Malaysian forrest industry means that the legislation and government policy controlling timber production are amongst the most stringent in the world. The preservation of natural forest habitat, and continued development of sustainable harvesting areas are core principles to our manufacturers. Therefore, a choice for Classic Timber Floor is truly a sound environmental choice.

Q.5: How do the Classic Timber Floors' range compare with Australian Hardwoods?

A: They compare very favourably on all criteria. Not only are the Classic Timber Floors' range superior in hardness, durability and stability, they are extremely reasonably priced. For a little less than the best of Australian timber, you can recieve a top quality, hard, select grade timber, that is already coated and polished, ready for immediate living on.

Q.6: Can I install my own Classic Timber Floor?

A: Naturally. The flooring is of normal tonque and groove profile, and as such is easily installed. Because the product is pre-finished, there is no need to worry about tricky sanding and coating. You can rest assured that the finish will be the best available, and your friends will rave about the job you've done. Speak to your Classic Timber Floor's stockist for more detail on installing.

Q.7: I have seen other pre-finished solid strip timber around. What is the difference between the Classic Timber Floor range and the other products?

A: Three words represent the difference between our competitor's product and ours. Quality, precision, and price. Simply put, the Classic Timber Floor is a naturally superior quality of timber and finish, the boards have been more precisely milled to ensure the exceptional quality of the floor you recieve.
