Nothing beats the feel of real timber underfoot.
Natural, warm, and full of character. Made from hardwood like oak, maple, walnut or cherry, these floors not only look beautiful, but they’re built to last. You can sand and refinish them over the years, keeping them looking great for generations.
At Carpet Court, we’ve got a great range of timber flooring to suit your space. From classic oak boards to rich walnut tones or light maple finishes, there’s something for every home and style.

What is engineered wood flooring?
Engineered wood flooring or engineered timber flooring looks very similar on the surface to solid wood, but it is made from a thin layer of hardwood bonded over 3 to 10 layers (typically 5) of high-quality plywood. This construction technique results in a wood floor that is more stable than a solid wood floor as it is less susceptible to shrinkage and expansion movement due to fluctuations in humidity or temperature. These floors are also able to be installed directly over concrete.
Engineered wood flooring is somewhat less expensive than solid hardwood, but most types can be sanded and refinished only once since the surface hardwood layer is relatively thin.
There is no clear advantage to one form of wood flooring over the other; your choice depends on how much you value the relative merits of each.
Where should I use wood flooring in my home?
Timber flooring is solid and sturdy, it can withstand heavy foot traffic, cleans up easily and is softer underfoot than tiles or concrete. All these attributes make it a great flooring option for most areas of the home, including, kitchen, living areas, bedrooms, halls and entranceways. Pop a cozy rug down on your wooden floor in the bedroom or lounge for added warmth, texture, and noise insulation.
Solid timber floors are not recommended for wet areas, therefore wood flooring in bathrooms and laundries due to the high moisture and water coming from all directions: bathtub overflows, sink spills, shower pooling, or washing machines flooding. Opt for an engineered wood here instead or move away from wood altogether.
