24.01.2022 5 things you need to know about Engineered Hardwood Flooring. The flooring industry has evolved in recent years, not only floor types have increased in range but installation options have developed. Your floor is the base where all other stylish decorations are built, if you have floors you love, walking across them can be a daily pleasure. Change your floors, and you change the style of your home. Engineered Wood Flooring is a type of hardwood flooring which is composed of ...multiple layers of timber bonded together and then finished with hardwood layer. Engineered wood flooring was developed to deal with some of the issues associated with hardwood floors, such as warping in wet conditions or extreme temperatures, as well as the limitations around the installation. Brau Timber helps you to focus on 5 Engineered Australian Hardwood Flooring advantages: 1. Timber wood quality, durability and resale value. Engineered hardwood construction has durable, high-performance qualities. The real estate market makes zero distinction between engineered hardwood and solid hardwood. So, if you’re concerned about the return on investment, don’t be. 2. Moisture proof features. Engineered wood flooring stands up to moisture and resists humidity much better than solid hardwood. Due to the multi-layer structure, where each layer is positioned in a different direction, this construction prevents the engineered hardwood from warping and bowing. 3. Easy and quick installation. One of the advantages of prefinished flooring is that it can be installed very quickly, usually in a single day and in most areas of the home, you just need to glue and nail or float this product with 3mm underlay over a concrete slab. And because engineered wood isn’t as sensitive to moisture, your expansion gaps don’t have to be exact. 4. Hardwood appearance. A hardwood veneer gives natural beauty and look to the engineered floor just as a solid hardwood floor does. As for aesthetical features, hardwood has the most and largest knots and is called character-grade. Engineered hardwood is characterised by a few smaller knots and has light’’ character. 5. Easy care and refinish possibility. Engineered hardwood offers easy care and maintenance. The product is sanded, stained, and sealed out of the box, comes with no installation mess, but it won’t be a problem to re-sand and re-stain your floor in the future if you decide this. Given all the choices now available, Brau Timber as a flooring professional is happy to give you some hints on how to pick the right one.

18.01.2022 Top 4 Laminate Flooring Trends in 2020; If you're looking for a hardwood alternative that fits your budget and looks good, laminate is a great choice. Water-resistant enough for small spills, laminate is easy to install and varies in colours and styles. Mentioning the style, here is the guide of the 4 hottest 2020 laminate flooring trends. Trend 1: Realistic wood-looking laminate.... One of the best trends in laminate flooring is authentic reproductions. Laminate flooring can have that reclaimed look and the subtle embossing of real wood and stone. Trend 2. Long planks preferred over short. Long planks are in trend, as they give a more unique look, as more of the wood’s grain with its natural patterning will be shown. Having long planks also reduces the number of breaks in the floor between the planks, making the space seem larger and more natural. Trend 3. Distressed and hand scraped wood look laminate You can always make an old home feel new thanks to flooring changes, and you can make a new house feel more heritage like with creating unique rustic looking hand scraped flooring. Trend 4. Matching the overall house style. Your kitchen floors do not have to match your countertops, but it is important to have coordinating cabinets, countertops and flooring. Bathroom cabinets should match in style with bathroom floor. All the elements of your house should work together to create an attractive overall look.

01.01.2022 4 bathrooms flooring options Before installing or updating a bathroom in your home, you may need to know some pros and cons of main bathroom flooring options. 1. Ceramic and porcelain tiles were leading in the past, but with today’s technology, you can get more comfortable and cheaper options. Big minuses of ceramic, marble or other natural stone are hardness and coldness. Walking on it can be tough on the knees and ankles, especially for the elderly. SPC/Hybrid is a softer... material and your feet won’t get cold. Bathrooms, which usually have smaller, tighter areas, are difficult to install it in. You have a toilet, tub, shower, sink and any built-ins to cut around. Ceramic tiles and marble look great, but they are expensive and very difficult to install. 2. Cork floor is resistant to water damage and mould. That makes it a good choice for the bathroom, but the installation could be only left to the professionals, which makes the price quite high. 3. Some homeowners have hardwood floors in bathrooms. Despite a great look and perfect quality, the problem is the humidity which may cause a lot of damage. 4. SPC/Hybrid is quickly becoming the best bathroom flooring choice. The properties allow using this material in damp areas without doubts. Stunning style, lots of variations and colours. Realistic hardwood floor look. Comfortable, and warm to walk on. Durable and resistant. Easy installation process and affordable price.
