This residential flooring project in Ipswich involved upgrading outdated flooring to a modern, durable hybrid plank solution throughout the main living areas, kitchen, and hallway.
The homeowners wanted a seamless timber-look finish that was stylish, waterproof, and low maintenance, ideal for family living in Queensland conditions.
Client Requirements
The homeowners were looking for:
- A modern timber-look floor to enhance the open-plan living area
- Waterproof flooring suitable for kitchen and high-traffic zones
- A darker tone to contrast white walls and cabinetry
- Scratch-resistant surface suitable for pets and daily wear
- Minimal disruption during installation
Their existing flooring was worn and uneven in sections, requiring minor preparation before installation.
Our Recommended Solution
After on-site inspection in Ipswich, we recommended:
6.5mm Waterproof Hybrid Flooring
Hybrid flooring was selected because it combines the durability of vinyl with the stability of laminate, making it ideal for:
- Open-plan living spaces

The chosen dark oak finish complements the white kitchen cabinetry and bright interior walls, creating a balanced and contemporary aesthetic.

- Removal of existing floor coverings
- Subfloor inspection and preparation
- Minor levelling where required
- Installation of hybrid planks throughout:
- Living room

- Hallway corridor
- Installation of new skirting trims and finishing edges
- Final clean and quality inspection
The entire installation was completed within 2 days, ensuring minimal disruption to the homeowners.
