How to Prepare Your Home for Timber Flooring Installation

Upgrading your space with a new floor is exciting, but preparation is key to ensuring a smooth timber flooring installation. A little planning ahead of time can save you from costly delays and disruptions.

Before your installer arrives, remove all furniture, rugs, and appliances from the space. This creates a clean and safe environment for efficient floorboard installation in Melbourne projects. If possible, consider moving items to another room or arranging temporary storage.

Your subfloor needs to be clean, level, and dry before the process begins. Any imperfections may affect the final result of your timber floor installation. Ask your installer if additional preparation is required, such as sanding or applying a moisture barrier.

Timber is sensitive to changes in temperature and humidity, which is why industry guidelines from the Australian Timber Flooring Association recommend acclimatising boards before installation.
