TIMBER SPECIES: Victorian Ash, Jarrah, Kempas, Chestnut, Blackwood, Northern Silky Oak, Tasmanian Oak, Rosewood, Blue Gum, Taun, & Northern Box. All timbers are kiln dried to manufacturer's specifications to minimise on-site expansion and contractions.

UNDERLAY: Exterior grade ply and optional "Cellair" acoustic foam. SHF also has available solid cork rubber underlay matting designed to maximise insulation, acoustic performance & impact absorption.

ADHESIVE: Latex adhesive. This provides an extra water resistant membrane between timber strips & sub-floor. Properties: * Water resistant * Non-flammable * Rubber Latex * Non-toxic

  • SUB-FLOORS: All solid smooth dry sub-strata including: Concrete, Chipboard, Tiles, Timber, Vinyl. Minimal floor levelling preparation is required.
  • A plastic membrane is laid on all concrete floors as an added safeguard against residual moisture in concrete slabs.
  • Can be installed over heated concrete slabs after on site conditioning.
  • SHF can moisture seal most concrete slabs.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURES: 7mm plywood underlay is secured to concrete with 38mm anchors. This enables your floor to be cut in tight to the skirting boards & provides the floor with the solid feel most people require.

Option 1: If Beading is not a suitable option we can cut your flooring in neat to skirtings and finish with a silicone bead around perimeter. This can only be done when the underlays are secured to the sub-floor.

FINISHES: Matte, Satin, Gloss or Semi Gloss Polyurethane. Properties: * Optional finish * Non-toxic * Low maintenance

SANDING: Suitable for re-sanding as per Australian Standards for solid timber flooring.

PACKAGING: Shrink-wrapped for safe & dry transportation.

MAINTENANCE: Refer to manufacturer's guide.

WARRANTY: Conditional for 10 years, covering failure of the components in the flooring system. Refer your supplier for details.

DRY RECYCLED AIR & DIRECT SUN LIGHT MAY CAUSE SHRINKAGE AND DISHING OF TIMBER. * AVOID DIRECT SUNLIGHT AT ALL COSTS!
