Frequently Asked Questions
Are carpet tiles easy to install yourself?
Yes — carpet tiles are designed for easy installation and can be a DIY project. They don’t usually require underlay and can be laid directly onto a prepared subfloor. For a professional look and perfect alignment, many homeowners still prefer to have them installed by our team.
Can Hybrid or Vinyl flooring be used in bathrooms?
Hybrid and Vinyl flooring are 100% waterproof, making them great for kitchens, laundries, and powder rooms. However, they aren’t designed for shower areas or places where water may pool for long periods. For those spaces, tiles are still the best option.
What carpet is best for stairs and hallways?
For high-traffic areas like stairs, hallways, and entryways, we recommend dense loop pile or nylon carpets. These fibres are strong, resilient, and designed to handle daily wear while maintaining their look for years to come.
What’s the difference between Hybrid and Vinyl flooring?
Hybrid flooring is thicker and usually includes a built-in underlay, giving it a firmer feel underfoot. Vinyl Planking is slightly thinner, softer, and quieter, but still very durable and fully waterproof. Both look like real timber — the right choice depends on your budget, lifestyle, and the rooms being updated.
Can Hybrid or Vinyl flooring be installed over tiles?
Yes — Hybrid and Vinyl can often be laid directly over existing tiles, provided the surface is level and in good condition. If the tiles need preparation to ensure a smooth and stable base, our installers will take care of it before your new flooring is installed.
How long does flooring installation take?
The time depends on the type of flooring and the size of your project. Most carpet installations can be completed in a single day. Hard flooring such as Hybrid or Vinyl Planking usually takes 1–3 days, depending on the layout and preparation required. Your flooring expert will give you a clear timeline before we start, so you know exactly what to expect.
Do you offer Australian-made flooring?
Yes, we have a range of Australian-made options available. Ask our team if you’d like to see these specifically.
Can I order flooring as supply-only, without installation?
Yes — just let us know. We can arrange supply-only if you’d prefer to handle installation yourself.
Do you remove and dispose of old flooring?
Yes — we can take up your old flooring and dispose of it, leaving your space ready for its new look.
How do I compare flooring quotes?
Always check that you’re comparing like-for-like. Look at the carpet’s OZ rating, or the thickness of the planks in hard flooring. Our quotes are fully itemised so you know exactly what you’re getting.
Which flooring is the most stain-resistant?
For carpet, <strong>Solution Dyed Nylon</strong> offers the best stain resistance. On hard floors, Hybrid and Vinyl also give excellent resistance to stains, scratches, and fading.
What’s best for a rental property?
Vinyl Planking is affordable, hard-wearing and great for high-traffic areas. For bedrooms, a budget-friendly stain-resistant carpet such as our “Apartment” range is a smart choice.
What flooring suits people with allergies?
Hard surfaces such as Vinyl, Hybrid or Timber are the healthiest option, as dust and allergens sit on top and can be easily cleaned away. If you’d like carpet, synthetic fibres are usually better than natural ones like wool.
What if I have pets?
Hybrid and Vinyl Planking are our top recommendations for pets — easy to clean, resistant to scratches, and long-lasting. If you prefer carpet, Solution Dyed Nylon is the best option.
What is the most durable flooring for a family home?
- Hard flooring such as Hybrid or Vinyl Planks is ideal — scratch, stain and fade resistance makes it a family favourite.
- Carpet is still a great choice — go for Solution Dyed Nylon or Polyester for durability and stain resistance.
What warranties do you provide?
Every product comes with its own manufacturer’s warranty, and we also back all installations with our Lifetime Installation Guarantee. If something goes wrong with the way we’ve installed your floor, we’ll fix it.
Do I need to move my furniture before installation?
We can move the big, heavy pieces for you. All we ask is that you clear away small items, personal belongings, and breakables before our team arrives.
How quickly can my flooring be installed?
If you’re working to a deadline, let us know. We’ll do our best to work within your timeframe — the earlier you reach out, the more we can accommodate your schedule.
What services do you provide?
We don’t just supply flooring. Our team can also remove your old floor, prepare the surface if needed, and guide you through the best options for your space. Everything from start to finish is covered.
Do you offer free measure and quotes?
Yes — we’ll come to your home with our mobile showroom, walk you through your options, and provide a fully itemised quote on the spot. No waiting around, no hidden extras — just clear pricing from the start.
Can carpet go over underfloor heating?
es — carpet can be installed over underfloor heating, but it’s important to choose the right combination of carpet and underlay to allow effective heat transfer. Our team can recommend the best options to suit your system.
How important it underlay?
Carpet underlay is very important, a good underlay makes your carpet softer, improves insulation, and extends its life. In some cases old underlay can be reused if it’s still in good condition, but high-traffic areas usually need fresh underlay.
What does “inherently stain-resistant” mean?
Fibres such as nylon and polyester are made with built-in stain resistance, so it doesn’t wear off like a surface treatment can.
What does an OZ rating mean in carpet?
It’s a measure of fibre weight. The higher the rating, the thicker, more luxurious and longer-lasting the carpet will feel underfoot.
How long does carpet last?
On average, a well-maintained carpet lasts 10–15 years, though premium options like wool can last even longer. Lifespan depends on fibre type, pile style, traffic levels, and maintenance. Choosing the right carpet for the right room ensures the longest life.
Does carpet make a home warmer?
Carpet provides natural insulation, helping retain warmth in cooler months. Higher pile carpets and wool fibres add even more thermal comfort, reducing the need for heating and making your home feel cosier year-round.
Can carpet help with soundproofing?
Yes — carpet naturally absorbs sound, making it a great choice for reducing noise between rooms or floors. Adding a quality underlay improves acoustic performance even more, which is why carpet is popular in apartments, media rooms, and bedrooms.
How do I care for carpet?
Vacuum regularly and attend to spills straight away — blot with a clean cloth, don’t rub. For things like food or mud, gently remove the excess before cleaning. Always follow the manufacturer’s care guide.
What is a Solution Dyed carpet?
The colour runs all the way through the fibre, not just on the surface. That makes it more resistant to fading and stains.
What’s the most durable carpet fibre?
Heavier fibres give better wear resistance. Nylon is one of the strongest and longest-lasting options.
What’s the most affordable carpet option?
Polyester carpets are generally the most budget-friendly, offering good comfort and stain resistance at a lower price point. They’re a popular choice for rentals, spare bedrooms, and projects where cost is a key factor.
What’s the difference between loop pile and cut pile?
- Loop pile: Loops of yarn create texture and a durable finish.
- Cut pile: Loops are cut, leaving a soft, plush surface.
We discuss this further in our comprehensive “buyers guide”
Is wool carpet better than synthetic?
Wool is a natural fibre that feels warm, insulates well, and can last for decades if cared for. Synthetic carpets, like Solution Dyed Nylon, are more affordable and offer better stain resistance. The right choice depends on your lifestyle — families often prefer synthetic, while homeowners seeking luxury may lean toward wool.
What carpet is easiest to clean?
Solution Dyed Nylon is one of the easiest carpets to clean because the colour runs through the entire fibre, resisting stains and fading. Polyester is another low-maintenance option, while loop pile styles tend to hide marks better than plush cuts.
What’s the best carpet for bedrooms?
For bedrooms, comfort is usually the top priority. Plush cut pile carpets feel soft underfoot and create a cosy atmosphere. Solution Dyed Nylon and Polyester options are also popular because they combine comfort with stain resistance, making them practical as well as luxurious.
How do I choose the right carpet?
It depends on how you live. Some carpets hide footprints better, while others resist wear and tear. During your in-home consultation, we’ll guide you through options like loop pile vs cut pile to find the right fit.

Can you put heavy furniture on Hybrid or Vinyl?
Yes — Hybrid and Vinyl are strong enough to support heavy furniture. To protect your new floor, we recommend using felt pads under furniture legs and lifting pieces into place rather than dragging them.
Do you need expansion gaps with Hybrid Flooring?
Not all Hybrid floors need them — and that’s a big advantage. Our Alpine (Beare Exclusive) range, with its higher stone density, is designed to be installed without the need for traditional expansion gaps or joints.
For most other Hybrid floors, both an expansion gap around the perimeter of the room and an expansion joint in larger spaces are required. These allow the floor to naturally expand and contract with temperature changes, preventing warping or buckling over time.
Whichever product you choose, our installers ensure these details are managed professionally, so your floor looks seamless and performs perfectly for years to come.
Is Hybrid Flooring noisy?
Hybrid flooring includes a built-in underlay that helps absorb sound, making it quieter than traditional laminate. While no hard flooring is completely silent, Hybrid offers a comfortable balance between firmness underfoot and reduced noise.
Does the size of the boards matter?
he size of hard flooring boards can dramatically affect the aesthetic in a room. For example using a longer, wider plank in a big space will help to make it look grand. If you used a shorter, thinner plank in a big space it would look too busy. Bigger planks for bigger spaces, smaller planks for smaller spaces is what we suggest.
Is Hybrid Flooring better than laminate?
Yes — in most cases Hybrid is a smarter choice. Unlike laminate, Hybrid is usually in most cases 100% waterproof, making it suitable for kitchens and other areas prone to spills. It’s also more durable and stable in Australian climates, where temperature and humidity can fluctuate.
Can I use Hybrid or Vinyl in bathrooms?
Hybrid and Vinyl are both waterproof and can be used in kitchens, laundries, and powder rooms. However, they aren’t recommended for wet areas with standing water, such as inside showers.
Do I need underlay for Hybrid or Vinyl flooring?
Hybrid flooring usually comes with an attached underlay, so no extra is needed. Vinyl planking may require a separate underlay depending on the product and your subfloor.
What’s the difference between Hybrid and Vinyl?
Hybrid flooring is thicker, often includes a built-in underlay, and feels firm underfoot. Vinyl planks are slightly thinner, softer and quieter underfoot, while still being durable and fully waterproof. Both are great options, and we’ll help you decide which best suits your space.
Do Hybrid and Vinyl floors fade in sunlight?
Modern Hybrid and Vinyl floors are UV-resistant, making them suitable for most homes. However, in areas with strong direct sunlight, we recommend blinds or curtains to help prevent any long-term fading.
Can Hybrid or Vinyl be installed over existing tiles?
Yes — Hybrid and Vinyl can often be laid directly over tiles, as long as the existing floor is level and stable. If preparation is needed, our installers will handle it to make sure the new floor performs well.
Do you have a physical showroom?
We don’t rely on traditional walk-in showrooms. Instead, our Head Offices in Queensland and New South Wales support a network of mobile showrooms that travel directly to our customers — not just in the immediate area, but well beyond the proximity of a bricks-and-mortar store.
Each mobile showroom carries over 500+ flooring samples, so you can see how they look in your own home, in your own lighting. It’s a more convenient and personalised way to choose flooring, without the limits of a fixed showroom.
How does a mobile flooring showroom appointment work?
It’s simple and stress-free:
- Enter your postcode online to find your local flooring expert.
- Book a time that suits you directly through our live calendar.
- We bring the showroom to you — with over 500+ flooring samples to view in your own home.
- Get expert advice on the spot from a senior flooring specialist, not a pushy salesperson.
- Receive your fully itemised quote instantly, with every cost clearly listed.
No multiple store visits, no guesswork about how the product will look in your lighting — just expert advice and transparent pricing, delivered in the comfort of your own home.
Why mobile showrooms instead of a store?
A traditional showroom can only show you flooring under bright lights in a display room — which often looks very different once it’s in your home. With our mobile showrooms, you get to view over 500+ flooring options exactly where they’ll be installed, so you can see how colours and textures look in your own lighting and with your own décor.
It’s not just about convenience — it’s about confidence. By bringing the showroom to you, we save you the hassle of multiple store visits and make it easier to choose flooring that truly fits your lifestyle, your space, and your budget.
