Timber Flooring Moisture Content Levels

If problems occur with flooring, it can be messy and expensive to repair. Timber is a hygroscopic material so it will absorb surface and atmospheric moisture and react by expanding and contracting.
Why is it important that your timber floor has an acceptable moisture content?

To help minimise movement in flooring, it is recommended that it be dried to standard moisture levels. In addition to our suppliers' stringent testing, we moisture and oven test our flooring.

Timber flooring should have a moisture content between 9 – 14% (10 -15% for Cypress).

Barwon Timber completes oven testing on samples from your floor packs to ensure they meet the standard.
