Nothing beats the beauty and durability of a solid timber floor and Bretts prides itself on sourcing only the fi nest timbers for our extensive flooring range. From Australian pine and hardwood species to international timbers, Bretts has the right timber for any application and will last the test of time in both appearance and structural integrity. A Bretts floor is produced from managed, renewable forests before being sawn and kiln dried. The Picasso Engineered Timber floors (sometimes known as ‘floating' flooring) are perfect for unit applications or wherever the floor needs to be fixed directly to a concrete floor. Picasso flooring is available in several distinctly different species and is sold as a pre-finished product that is ready to be installed. Bretts also offers an extensive range of laminate flooring which is great for high wear areas or where a more traditional flooring option doesn't suit.
