Got a question? It might be answered below, if no get in touch we are happy to help.
At O’Brien Timber Floors we recommend minimum 5% extra for square/rectangular shaped rooms, up to 10% for oddly shaped rooms with angles or curves.
O’Brien Timber Floors believe that Solid Bamboo, along with Laminate floorboards are the two hardest wearing products. For natural timbers please ask about our Janka Ratings for individual species hardness ratings.
We recommend 8-10mm gap to allow for expansion.
A floating floor as the name suggests timber floors which “float” on top of underlay. The boards are not nailed or glued down to the sub-floor. The underlay allows the floor to expand and contract due to high temperature/humidity days. O’Brien Timber Floors have various underlays to choose from.
No, the excess moisture and steam will ruin your new floor. O’Brien Timber Floors recommend Vinyl Planks for wet areas.
Yes, there is no problem while using timber floors in the kitchen, just be sure to clean up spills and leaks as quickly as possible.
Most laminate floors, engineered timber and solid bamboo floorboards are available in a “click lock” design which makes for a very simple install. Most people with a basic knowledge of power tools will be able to install these quite easily. For solid timber installs, O’Brien Timber Floors recommends using a professional installer.
We recommend using a soft broom to sweep up debris, then a slightly damp mop to clean. Be sure to check out a great list of flooring accessories that we stock. Avoid using harsh chemicals which will strip the protective layers of your floor. Also avoid steam and excess water, both of which are harmful to your floor. You can read a post at our floor and carpet blog on this topic.
