Residential Flooring FAQs

What is the best type of flooring for residential homes in New Zealand?

There’s no single “best”. It depends on budget, lifestyle, and design goals. Solid timber offers the most authentic look and longest life. Engineered timber flooring provides real-wood beauty with extra stability for NZ conditions. Laminate delivers standout durability and value. If you’re weighing timber vs laminate flooring NZ options, our team will help you match performance to the room - kitchens and halls often benefit from tougher surfaces, while living areas may prioritise warmth and texture.

How long does residential flooring installation take?

Typical residential floor installation time ranges from a day or two for smaller laminate or pre-finished engineered areas, to several days or more for larger projects and solid timber (which may include sanding/finishing). We’ll confirm a timeline in your quote once we’ve measured and reviewed the subfloor.

Is wooden flooring easy to maintain in homes?

Yes, especially with the right finish and routine. For residential flooring care NZ homeowners typically:

  • Use soft pads under furniture and door mats at entries.
  • Sweep or vacuum regularly; damp-mop with recommended products.
  • Refresh coatings as needed (timing varies by product and traffic).

We’ll provide a tailored care guide at handover.

Can residential flooring increase my property value?

High-quality wooden flooring residential NZ buyers love can enhance perceived value and market appeal. Timber and engineered products are often seen as premium upgrades, while modern laminates can elevate look-and-feel on a sensible budget.

Do you offer a warranty for residential flooring?

Yes. You’ll receive product warranties from the manufacturer plus JHF’s 10-year installation warranty. We document everything at project completion and remain available for aftercare.
