Flooring for Southbank apartments

The homes we see in Southbank

• High-rise apartments with floor-to-ceiling glass, where sun and glare shape which colour of floor looks right.
• Tower apartments with a lot of open-plan living, where one floor runs through the lounge, dining and kitchen.
• Older low-rise apartment blocks, where the existing floor may be a different height and needs a closer look.

Building rules and access in Southbank

• Towers here usually need approval from the owners corporation before the work starts, and they often ask for an acoustic rating on the new floor.
• Lifts must be booked and there are limits on what time materials can come in. We confirm the booking before delivery day.
• Strong sun through the glass can fade a dark floor in time, so we talk about colour and finish with you before you choose.
