The 5 best hardwood flooring in Sydney for an elegant space
While a great hardwood floor alone doesn’t turn a house into a home, it sure doesn’t hurt, either. A great floor can help tie together all the elements of your home, and makes you and your guests feel cozy and welcome the moment you step inside.
This isn’t something you can install on your own (unless you have all the necessary trade experience, certifications, and equipment lying around). It’s best to leave it to the professionals. We’ve got you covered with the best hardwood flooring installers in Sydney.
How much does new hardwood flooring cost in Sydney?
New hardwood flooring in Sydney costs around $29 to $110 per square meter. Exact pricing will depend on the quality, material type, and appearance of the flooring.

Business hours:

Sydney Timber Flooring provides a host of hardwood flooring services (especially for timber floors) all over NSW. They can install and repair laminate, solid timber, or hybrid floors, among other types.
If necessary, they can prepare subfloors before installing the main hardwood floor. This could mean grinding and filling certain portions of the subfloor to make it perfectly level.
If there are existing elements like tile or vinyl that you no longer need, the team will remove these for you.
Meanwhile, if you have an existing hardwood floor but it’s in bad shape, Sydney Timber Flooring also does repairs, sanding, and polishing of existing surfaces to make them look new. They’ll also remove and dispose of any old floor coverings that you no longer need.
Apart from indoor hardwood areas, the team also installs and repairs bamboo flooring, parquetry, decks, and more.
Unfortunately, Sydney Timber Flooring doesn’t provide pricing estimates on their website. They’ll happily give you a custom quote if you call them, though. They’ll even provide free measuring services.
We were so happy with the result
“Tony and the team at Sydney Timber Flooring did a great job installing coastal blackbutt hybrid flooring in our home. It looks fantastic and we were really happy with the quality of their work. They came out for a free quote and talked us through the samples, which really helped us decide. Tony clearly knows his stuff and gave great advice on finishings around areas like stairs and carpet transitions. We were so happy with the result, we asked them back to do another section of the house.”
– Ben Fletcher, Google Review
Much appreciated
“I highly recommend Tony and his team. We had engineered flooring installed on old existing subfloor. He came for the free quote, gave helpful suggestions, and did not try any upselling. The installation was done in a careful manner with good attention to detail.”

While Ace Timber Floor Solutions can work with many different floor types, it specializes in engineered timber and hybrid hardwood flooring. Between these two, you can choose from over 80 specific appearances, colours, and sub-types.
Besides floors in regular rooms, Ace Timber Floor Solutions also works on stair surfaces. They can put in skirting and trim where necessary as well. For all of these options, their team can supply the flooring as well as install it.
If you’d like to replace your current flooring, they’ll remove and dispose of it for you.
The team uses a highly collaborative approach from the beginning by doing an in-depth consultation with customers before starting any work. Ace Timber Floor Solutions discloses pricing on their website, though the final quote will be based on the overall size of the floor.
Their team was happy to answer our inquiries on the phone. However, their business hours are somewhat limited, with only 6 operating hours per day on most days.
The craftsmanship is second to none

He guided us through the entire process with genuine care, answering all our questions and offering thoughtful advice along the way.”

Like other hardwood flooring businesses, Andersens provides and installs various hardwood floor types including laminate and hybrid floors. What makes Andersens stand out is their other offerings: they also develop and install blinds, shutters, awnings, and more.
Their website lets you see all your flooring options, and you can filter by fiber type, colour, and visual style.
Andersens takes you through a thorough collaboration and consultation process before beginning work. A mobile showroom comes to your home, so you can see all your choices in person before committing.
Then, a consultant and design specialist will talk to you and make aesthetics suggestions, do measurements, and then provide a quote within your budget.
Andersens offers a 100-day guarantee; if you aren’t happy with your flooring, they’ll replace it for you within that time frame. Although, with all the 5-star ratings the business has, you probably won’t need to resort to this.
FIVE STAR EXPERIENCE
“Fantastic service from start to finish. Vinyl flooring fitted in lounge and 3 bedrooms, with all the moving of furniture carried out by Lee. Great communication throughout, and Lee made the whole experience easy, simple and pleasant. Best of all, thanks to his quality workmanship, the house has been modernised and the floors look fantastic.”
– Diane Wood, Google Review
Highly recommend Anderson’s Gosford
“Love my new carpet from Andersens Gosford. Selected a thicker underlay. Great underfoot, overall finish good enough to sleep on. Lee was excellent from the initial measure to install. In store customer service was amazing. Tracey was fantastic. Helped me to select a great carpet within my budget.”

“Tony and the installers were super professional, despite this being a pretty tricky job (super uneven old floor and stairwell to deal with). They kept me up to date regularly leading up to and through the build, turned up on time, worked hard to smash it out on schedule and followed up post-install to check it was all going well.”
– Joe MC, Google Review
The result was simply fabulous
“We really appreciated the care and attention Sam gave to our project. Checking in with us and keeping us up to date at crucial times in the project was greatly appreciated and took a lot of the stress out for us. Worth noting all Sam’s trades were very skilled professionals and best of all neat and tidy.”
