Project Story

The Goal

Create one consistent Spotted Gum timber floor across both levels of the new-build home, while using an installation approach suitable for the different subfloors upstairs and downstairs.

The Flooring Choice

Riverhill Floors Australian Classic 14/3mm engineered timber in Spotted Gum was selected to provide a consistent Australian timber appearance throughout the home. Using the same flooring across both levels created a seamless look despite the different construction underneath.

Our Approach

Because the two levels had different subfloors, the installation system was selected separately for each area. The upstairs particleboard and downstairs concrete slab were treated according to their individual requirements, allowing the same engineered timber flooring to be installed consistently throughout the home.

The Outcome

The completed installation achieved the consistent Spotted Gum look the homeowners wanted across both levels, while accommodating the different subfloor conditions beneath each area.
