Frequently asked questions
Hard flooring refers to floor surfaces made from durable materials such as laminate, hybrid flooring, vinyl and engineered timber. These flooring types create a firm, smooth surface that is designed to handle everyday wear in busy homes. Each hard flooring type has its own construction and performance features, so the right option will depend on your lifestyle, design preferences and the rooms where the flooring will be installed.
Common types of hard flooring include laminate flooring, hybrid flooring, vinyl flooring and engineered timber. Laminate flooring uses a durable protective surface over a high-density fibre board core. Hybrid flooring combines rigid core construction with a waterproof vinyl surface. Vinyl flooring is available in sheet or plank formats and offers good water resistance. Engineered timber features a genuine hardwood top layer bonded to a stable core. Each option offers benefits for different durability, appearance and moisture resistance.
Laminate flooring has a tough protective surface and a timber-look decorative layer over a fibreboard core. Hybrid flooring combines a rigid core with a waterproof vinyl surface, making it suitable for moisture-prone areas. Vinyl flooring is made from layered PVC materials and is highly water resistant, often used in kitchens, bathrooms and laundries. Engineered timber flooring features a real hardwood surface layer that delivers the natural look and feel of timber with improved structural stability.
Durability depends on the construction of the flooring and where it will be installed. Laminate, hybrid and vinyl flooring are designed to resist scratches, stains and everyday wear, making them suitable for busy homes. Engineered timber also offers long-term durability while providing the natural beauty of real wood. The best option will depend on the level of foot traffic, lifestyle factors and how the space will be used.
Vinyl flooring is fully waterproof and commonly used in areas exposed to moisture, including bathrooms, laundries and kitchens. Hybrid flooring also performs well in moisture-prone areas due to its water-resistant construction. Laminate and engineered timber are better suited to living spaces and bedrooms where exposure to water is more limited.
Hard flooring is easy clean. Regular sweeping or vacuuming, along with occasional mopping using our recommended Pergo and Bona cleaning products, will help keep it in great condition. Most hard flooring surfaces are designed to resist stains and everyday wear. Following the manufacturer’s cleaning and care guidelines will help maintain the appearance and performance of your floor over time.
The cost of hard flooring depends on the type of flooring selected, the product range, board or plank size, and performance features like water resistance or durability. Floor preparation and installation requirements may also influence the final price. We will assess the space and recommend options suited to your home and budget during your measure and quote.
