Timber Flooring Species

Solid timber strip flooring is designed to be laid directly onto joists, battens, particleboard or plywood on concrete.

Precision milled at 19mm to 21mm in thickness and board widths from 60mm to 180mm. Solid timber floors are the perfect option for sports floors, residential homes and commercial properties. Tongue and groove joints on both sides and ends of the floorboards ensure a continuous and stable surface.

End matching, which is a tongue and groove on the ends of the floorboards, eliminates the need for floorboards to join directly over joists or battens. This results in less cutting and less waste.

Precision-milled to thicknesses of 13mm to 14mm, Slimwood, as the name suggests, is thinner than the traditional tongue and groove timber strip floors.

Slimwood overlay flooring is installed directly over a structural surface, such as particleboard on joists or plywood over concrete. The overlay flooring is well supported, so it is not necessary to have the additional thickness.

When compared to traditional 19mm tongue and groove strip flooring, Slimwood still offers the same depth of wear (the depth of the board that can be sanded and refinished), despite the overall plank being thinner.

Slimwood solid timber flooring is designed to be trowel glued and secret nailed.
