Timber flooring is produced from trees.
There are no two trees the same.
Therefore, there are no two lengths of flooring the same.
Timber flooring is a random blend of natural colours, grains and textures.This is what makes every timber floor unique.
Timber flooring is sold in job quantities and will contain variations in colour, shade, texture, naturally occurring features and random lengths.
Timber flooring is sold based on species (or mixture of species) NOT colour, shade or texture. Variation of colour, shade or texture can be extreme in most species.
Showroom displays are only a guide as to the type of grain and characteristics of that species and should not be relied upon as a perfect match to an entire floor.
It is impossible to identify the unique features and colour variations a new timber floor will display at the time of installation. These features and colours will become fully apparent after sanding and polishing.
A finished floor will vary in appearance depending on the type of lighting, the colour of wall paint, the amount of natural light, the degree of sanding and the type of coating applied.
A freshly installed and polished floor will darken with time and usage.
The words 'select grade' do not mean that flooring is totally unmarked from gum vein or other imperfections. It means that it will have a lower percentage of imperfection than standard grade.
