Blackbutt timber is a highly durable hardwood native to Australia, making it an excellent choice for high-traffic areas. It is tough and resilient, resistant to wear and tear, and maintains its appearance under heavy use, making it ideal for homes.

For climates like Perth, with hot summers and mild winters, laminate flooring is an excellent choice due to its resistance to warping and fading. The materials in laminate flooring respond well to temperature fluctuations and humidity, maintaining their form and function throughout the year.

Choosing between laminate and hardwood flooring depends on factors like your budget, maintenance preferences, and where the flooring will be installed. Laminate is highly durable, easy to maintain, and generally less expensive, making it ideal for areas with high traffic or homes with pets and children. Hardwood offers a timeless appeal and can increase property value, but requires more maintenance and can be susceptible to scratches and moisture.

Australian hardwoods are known for their durability and toughness, making them a good choice for scratch-resistant flooring. While there are several Australian hardwood species that offer excellent scratch resistance, one of the most renowned options is spotted gum.

Engineered hardwood is often considered the best choice for underfloor heating systems. Its construction, with layers of real wood veneer on top of a stable plywood or high-density fiberboard core, makes it more resistant to temperature fluctuations and less prone to warping or shrinking compared to solid hardwood. The engineered structure allows for better heat conductivity, making it an efficient choice for underfloor heating.

When cleaning wood flooring, it’s important to use products that are specifically designed for wood and won’t cause damage or leave residue. The best practices for cleaning wood flooring include regular sweeping with a soft bristle broom and making use of a damp mop or microfiber mop if there has been expressive dust or a liquid spill. It is important to avoid using excess water as this can cause swelling of the wood and to refrain from using any oil or wax-based products as this will damage the natural finish and coating of the wood.
