Timber Flooring Options & Prices

A new timber floor can completely transform your home.

But we know that the range and cost of timber flooring options can be overwhelming. 

At Distinctive Timber Floors Adelaide, we only use high quality timber and timber look products.

We have an extensive range of options to suit your lifestyle, budget and property.

Our skilled tradespeople provide personalised support you through every step of the project, with dedicated after sales service and support.

The pricing shown below is to be used as a general guide only and your final quote will depend on a range of factors unique to your home and choice of timber flooring. 

SOLID TIMBER FLOORING

Priced from $85 per sqm including GST – Supply Only

Call our experienced team for pricing on installation:

0418 823 782

For longevity, appearance and resale value, you can’t beat solid timber floors. They can be re-sanded many times and stained different colours.

PARQUETRY FLOORING

Priced from $85 per sqm including GST – Supply Only

Call our experienced team for pricing on installation:

0418 823 782

Hand-cut blocks, mosaics and panels are laid to create beautiful patterns. Parquetry is the true craftsmanship of timber flooring. We’ve worked with many clients over the years to transform their floors with unique designs.

Parquetry timber flooring can be laid on various floors and can be re-sanded.

ENGINEERED TIMBER FLOORING

Priced from $77 per sqm including GST – Supply Only

Call our experienced team for pricing on installation:

0418 823 782

Engineered timber floorboards have a thin layer of cosmetic timber over bonded layers of supporting timber. It’s basically a thick veneer.

They display the characteristics of natural timber but can only be re-sanded and rejuvenated a couple of times, depending on the condition.

TIMBER LAMINATE FLOORING

Priced from $30 per sqm including GST – Supply Only

Call our experienced team for pricing on installation:

0418 823 782

Laminate is a high-quality digital image of timber bonded to supporting timbers. 

This form of overlay floor can look more uniform but can’t be rejuvenated like engineered or solid timber.

 

BAMBOO FLOORING

While technically a grass and not a timber, bamboo looks like timber on the floor. It’s a hard and durable product that doesn’t dent. 

CORK FLOORING

Natural cork tiles have a different look and feel to timber. A good option if you need a floor that’s quieter and softer underfoot. It’s more forgiving if you drop something and has a good lifespan. Like traditional flooring, we can re-sand it and bring it back to new condition. It can also be painted.

Popular Hardwood Timber Flooring Options

Distinctive Timber Floors Adelaide can supply and install a wide range of different hardwood timber types – with some of the most popular options with Adelaide homeowners being Baltic Pine, Bleached Jarra, Blue Gum, Solid American Oak, Tasmanian Oak, Solid Brush Box, Marri and Spotted Gum.

Testimonials

One of the bad things of getting old is the fear of being ripped off for house maintenance work. Ask any pensioner and they all will have a story to tell. I asked Richard for a quote when he was working for our neighbour (who were very pleased with his work) and I was confident that it was a genuine price. And now the job is finished, to a standard better than I thought possible. 5 stars without hesitation.Richard - Eastern Adelaide

I contacted Richard at Distinctive floors to lay floors in my new home. He came out straight away to give me a quote and some really good ideas that I hadn’t considered. He suggested going for a lighter colour to make the room feel a little larger. I think this was a great idea.Richard was on time and he charged us exactly what we were quoted.The floors are firm make no noise and look amazing if you want great looking floors then contact these guys. The finish is amazing. Thanks Richard and the team for doing such a great job.

When I asked my good friend who has been in the flooring business now for more than 30 years who he would trust to - A) restore my floating American oak floorboards to their former glory and B) ensure the new flooring we had to put down in the kitchen completely matched the old boards, he immediately recommended Richard and his team.Contrary to any of the negative posts you might read, Richard and his team (special mention to Mitch) provided expert advice on what needed to be done (providing us with a test board to ensure we were happy with the new stain). He was also a man of his word by turning-up exactly on time and finishing the 4-day job (as promised)the day before Easter, so that we could move back in.Sanding a floor is a messy business, but the house and driveway did not suffer at all. The finished flooring is amazing and you struggle to tell the old from the new.So, if you are looking for someone who does a brilliant job on your timber floorboards don't go past Richard and his team. If he's too busy to fit you in straight away, just remember he and his team are worth the wait.I trusted my friend to set me straight and he (and Richard) didn't steer me wrong.Professor Simon Stewart, Blackwood, SA

Apologies to the team at Distinctive Timber Floors for my delay in posting feedback on your professional services provided to me. I am a demanding customer and expect high service standards to be delivered when paying for a product & or service. Richard, Alex and the team delivered exceptional service.I initially emailed Richard about my requirements for laying approximately 201 square metres of timber flooring in my soon to be expected finished new home. A prompt reply, followed by a number of telephone calls and a visit to discuss my requirements. I booked for the job to be undertaken in mid-January 2021. The team delivered exactly how they said they would deliver.I am very happy with the final product. The team explained every step of the way and were courteous and professional at all times. Alex who laid the Tasmanian Oak flooring prior to polishing and sealing comes from a generation, I don't think we will see again. He knows his stuff, worked hard, diligently and delivered brilliant workmanship.Richard and his guys (apologies, can't recall your names) came in and coated and polished the floor with polyurethane. Brilliant job. I can't speak highly enough of this team. Great job, well done. 🙂 Cheers N

We would highly recommend Richard and his team, they were an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish! Richard was always prompt in his communication, they were really flexible with the timing of the job to meet our deadline to move in and they were the most competitively priced (of four quotes). Ashley did a brilliant job of sanding and restoring the Jarrah and Baltic Pine floorboards in our house to their former glory. They also did a full clean up before they left, which was much more thorough than any other contractor we’ve ever used. We would absolutely use their services again. Compliments to the whole team!

We recently had several rooms of our home renovated.My husband and I were unsure of what to do with our flooring.We wanted something that was easy to maintain, healthier than the existing carpet and something with a “WOW” factor.Richard from Distinctive Timber Floors (DTF) suggested a parquetry (double herringbone) wood floor.The end result looks fantastic and visitors comment on how amazing it looks.Thank you Richard for helping us to move our furniture and co-ordinating with other trades on our behalf.You alleviated my stress during our renovation.Tam - Glenelg

Informed, guided, respected & valued that’s how we felt after doing business with Richard and his team ( Alex & Jarrad) at Distinctive Timber Floors. We chose to instal 120m2 of Blackbutt and retained a Matt finish to lighten up our home and it has turned out excellent.Richard also connected us with quality trades when we needed help getting the tiles up and decided to install new skirting boards and silicon edging.I have recommended this Company to family and would use their skills and knowledge again if the need arises.

Richard and his team did a marvellous job installing a new jarrah timber floor in our existing 1950s home. We are very pleased with the final result and the process, as a result of which DT Floors has earned our full endorsement.Before we engaged anyone we did our background research on timber flooring, and it was evident from the outset that Richard is a professional operator with tremendous hands-on experience and an incredible depth of knowledge on the subject.But what set Richard apart from other contractors was that he didn’t try to over-promise in order to win the job, which is commendable. He was honest and realistic about the challenges that we were likely to face when installing a new floor in an old house.As part of our renovations we also installed a new kitchen and did some painting. This created some timing issues, and Richard worked with us by altering his timings as needed so that we could get the other stuff done. He himself suggested that we should delay his final sanding, varnish and polish until the kitchen was finished to ensure that there was no chance that our brand new floor could get scratched by the kitchen installation!As it’s an old house, there were indeed a couple of surprises and challenges that came up. Richard kept us engaged in the process, outlining the various possible solutions, their implications, and seeking our input about how we want to proceed.I should add that the main reason for installing new floors was that our old Baltic pine floors were awfully noisy. The new floors not only look amazing but sound much quieter. Without a doubt they’ve increased the value of our house tremendously.Final product: jarrah with polyurethane (2-pack) satin varnish

Bought a most unique timber for the entire home. The timber company itself let me down from the purchase of the timbers to delivery.After waiting three weeks for a quote from timber yard's foremost recommended floor layer, I called for another contact. They reluctantly put me onto Richard from Distinctive Flooring who came out the next day, gave me a firm quote that afternoon and started the project as soon as the timber had acclimatised to the property.The man laying the timbers (Alex) was amazing with his particular attention to detail. Communication was regular and all timber yard's mistakes (and there were many) were immediately communicated. Richard was absolutely amazing and brilliant in resolving all issues at every step of the way, eliminating ALL stress for me.The finished product was honestly something that looks like it came out of a *Vogue* magazine. Richard turned my floors from crusty concrete to a 5 star work of art. I was not happy with the home and now I can honestly say, Richard has made my home into a place I feel proud of coming home to and having family and friends over.I am recommending Richard to everyone I know. I have never come across anyone who goes out of their way, takes their time to do a job to absolute perfection like Richard, Alex and their team have done.I am so proud of the work done, that I am willing to open my home to anyone who would like to see his work if it would make a difference in people using him above anyone else.The showroom sample of the finished product was what attracted me to going floorboards and can honestly say my floors look a million dollars better than the sample.

You will not be disappointed.
