Timber Flooring Sydney | Supply & Installation
Lux Property Maintenance supplies and installs timber, engineered timber, hybrid, and laminate flooring across Sydney. Whether you’re renovating a single room or flooring an entire home, our team manages every stage — from subfloor preparation and old floor removal through to final installation and clean-up. We work with leading Australian and European brands and offer a wide range of species, finishes, and board widths to suit every budget and interior style. Supply and installation prices start from $50 per square metre and range up to $130/m² for premium solid hardwood, depending on the product and site conditions. All jobs are fully insured, and we provide a written, itemised quote before any work begins.
Flooring Options We Install
- Solid Hardwood Flooring — The premium choice for timber floors. Milled from a single piece of timber, solid hardwood can be sanded and refinished multiple times over its lifetime, making it a long-term investment. Popular Sydney species include spotted gum, blackbutt, and Sydney blue gum — all naturally hard-wearing and suited to Australia’s climate. Best suited to living areas and bedrooms on timber subfloors. Supply and lay: $90–$130/m²
- Engineered Timber Flooring — Engineered timber combines a real hardwood wear layer with a stable plywood core, giving it far greater resistance to humidity and temperature fluctuation than solid timber. It can be installed directly over concrete slabs or existing timber subfloors and is compatible with most Sydney home types including units, townhouses, and houses. Supply and lay: $70–$110/m²
- Hybrid / SPC Flooring — Stone plastic composite (SPC) hybrid flooring is 100% waterproof, making it the go-to product for kitchens, laundries, and bathrooms where moisture is a factor. It’s rigid underfoot, highly durable, and available in a broad range of realistic timber-look designs from wide-plank oak to dark walnut finishes. Supply and lay: $50–$80/m²
- Bamboo Flooring — An eco-friendly alternative that’s harder than most traditional hardwood species once strand-woven. Bamboo is fast-growing and sustainably harvested, and its finished surface is extremely dense and impact-resistant — ideal for high-traffic living areas and hallways. Supply and lay: $60–$90/m²
- Laminate Flooring — The most budget-conscious option without sacrificing looks. Modern laminate uses a high-definition photographic layer under a tough AC4 or AC5 wear coating, producing a realistic timber appearance with excellent scratch and stain resistance. Easy to maintain and fast to install. Supply and lay: $40–$65/m²

Frequently Asked Questions — Timber Flooring Sydney
How long does timber flooring installation take?
For a standard three-bedroom home, timber flooring installation typically takes one to three days. Hybrid and laminate floating floors are the fastest to install — a full house can often be completed in a single day. Engineered timber glue-down installations take slightly longer due to adhesive cure time. Solid hardwood with on-site sanding and finishing requires the most time — allow two to four days plus drying time between coats. Your written quote will include a timeline estimate for your specific project.
Can you install timber flooring over underfloor heating?
Yes — engineered timber and hybrid/SPC flooring are both compatible with underfloor heating systems when the correct product is selected and installed according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. Solid hardwood is generally not recommended over in-floor hydronic or electric heating due to its sensitivity to temperature and moisture variation. During your free measure and quote, our team will advise on the best product for your heating system and ensure the correct subfloor preparation is carried out.
Do you remove old flooring before installation?
Yes. Old flooring removal and disposal is included in our project quotes. This covers carpet, vinyl, existing laminate, and floating floors. Tile removal is also available and priced separately depending on adhesive type and floor area. There are no surprise extras — your written, itemised quote will clearly list what’s included before any work begins, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
What’s the difference between solid and engineered timber flooring?
Solid timber is milled from a single piece of wood all the way through. It can be sanded and refinished multiple times over its lifetime and is the traditional choice for long-term value. Engineered timber has a real hardwood veneer (typically 3–6 mm thick) bonded to a stable plywood core. The core makes it far more dimensionally stable across Sydney’s seasonal humidity changes, and it can be installed directly over concrete slabs — something solid timber generally cannot. Engineered timber suits a wider range of homes and subfloor types, while solid timber commands a higher perceived value and refinishing potential.
