Description

In this episode, Frances Cosway and I share our thoughts on timber flooring. We talk about solid timber and engineered timber flooring, why we’d love to see laminate flooring never be used again, and what you need to know before choosing vinyl flooring.
SHOW NOTES:
Timber flooring can be a great and sustainable choice for your family home.
However, many are making terrible, low-cost choices that will be terrible to live with long-term.
In this episode, we talk about timber flooring: what choices you have available and what you need to know to make a great, durable and sustainable choice for your own home.
During our conversation, we dive into …
+ what choices are available for you in timber flooring
+ what should you speak to suppliers about so you understand installation requirements
+ how to choose colour for your flooring so it suits what’s already in your home
+ why laminate flooring is a terrible choice
+ what you need to know about vinyl flooring before you choose it
I hope you enjoy this episode. Listen now.
