Wood Flooring Wisdom: Your Questions Answered

Find expert insights on installation, care, and design for timeless floors.

How durable are hardwood floors in high-moisture areas?
While solid wood is moisture-sensitive, Timbra's water-resistant engineered woods and luxury vinyl planks with 100% waterproof cores perform perfectly in kitchens or basements. Our WPC (Wood-Plastic Composite) collections offer worry-free installation in bathrooms.
What’s the ideal wood species for pet owners?
Choose harder species like oak (Janka 1360) or walnut (1010) for scratch resistance. Our matte-finish UV coatings add extra protection against claw marks while hiding minor wear.
Can you refinish engineered wood floors?
Yes! Timbra’s 4mm+ wear-layer engineered floors can be sanded 2-3 times. We use aluminum oxide finishes that last 10+ years before refinishing is needed.
How long does installation typically take?
Standard projects (100m²) take 3-5 days after subfloor prep. Complex patterns like herringbone add 1-2 days. We provide a detailed timeline during your free 3D design consultation.
Are your woods sustainably sourced?
100%. All Timbra woods carry FSC/PEFC certification and our EcoGuard™ finishes are VOC-free. We plant 3 trees for every order through our reforestation program.
