Time Tested Benefits of Timber Flooring
When the south coastal areas of Geelong, Torquay, Anglesea, and Lorne (just to name a few) were first being established, a majority of the homes, holiday homes, theatres and community halls had solid timber flooring. Many of these buildings still have the same timber flooring that was first installed, and some of them are now 70, 80 or over 100 years old.
Timber flooring is a timeless yet contemporary aesthetic, and it has the added bonus of bringing the beauty of the surf coast right into your home. The natural wood textures have an unmistakably beachy feel, adding a touch of sophistication to any space. With shades ranging from light to dark, there’s sure to be a timber flooring option to match your style.

With the ocean right on your doorstep, you can enjoy the beachside lifestyle and look for ways to capture its beauty within your own home. Solid timber flooring offers a beautiful and easy way to do this, providing a great complement to the unique coastal style.

Timber Flooring is Easy to Clean and Maintain
Timber flooring is an easy choice went it comes to adding an interior design that is in keeping with a stylish and timeless look and feel, but it’s also easy to clean and maintain. With beige, brown and various other grain colours available, timber flooring is highly resistant to scratching and fading, meaning you can enjoy the beauty of timber flooring for years to come.
When it comes to cleaning your floors, it’s just a case of a vacuum and a damp mop, and your beautiful timber floors are clean in no time.
Timber Flooring Cleaning Tips:
- Vacuuming – make sure the vacuum head is on a bare floor setting, so it doesn’t scratch the floors.
- Mopping – use a damp mop and make sure you wring out as much water out of the mop as possible.
- Cleaning Products – Make sure to use a floor cleaning product that is suitable for timber floors and only use warm water. Excessively hot water can damage the finish of the timber.
- Drying floors – open doors and windows and if you have ceiling fans turn them on for quicker drying. The less time moisture is left sitting on the floorboards the better.
Whether your aesthetic is modern or rustic, timber flooring has something to offer, so why not get creative and make your home a reflection of the unique beauty of the Surf Coast?
