A rental floor has one job. Survive tenants, clean up easily, and not need replacing at every turnover. This is the cheapest combination per square metre we're willing to put our name on, and it's chosen because it lays fast and patches without redoing the room.

Uplift and disposal of the old floor
Furniture shift where the unit isn't already vacant
Prep and levelling, so the new floor doesn't telegraph the old one
Scheduling around your other trades and the turnover date
One quote for the whole unit, so you can put it straight to the owner
LVT is waterproof, and it shrugs off scuffs, dragged furniture and the occasional cigarette in a way carpet never will
A single damaged plank lifts and replaces without redoing the room. That's the difference between a two hundred dollar fix and a four thousand dollar one at the next turnover.
Galaxy2 at 5 Star residential is graded for real wear, not just for looking good on handover day
Keep a spare box on site. We'll tell you how many at the measure, and it costs almost nothing next to a colour match problem in three years.

A vacant two bedroom unit is usually two to three days start to finish
Add about a day for uplift and disposal of the old floor
Give us the vacate date and the new tenancy date and we'll work to the gap
If Healthy Homes work is happening at the same time, tell us and we'll sequence around the other trades
Hard flooring through the living areas nearly always wins on total cost. Carpet in a rental tends to get replaced every second or third tenancy, LVT tends to get patched. Bedrooms are the exception, where carpet is warmer and takes far less punishment.
Yes, and the rate improves when you do. Ordering across several units means we buy full pallets and full rolls rather than part quantities, and that saving comes back to you. Tell us the whole portfolio rather than one unit at a time.
Yes. Plenty of our rental work comes through property managers with the invoice going to the owner. Give us both sets of details at the quote stage and we'll set it up that way from the start.
That's the main argument for plank over sheet or carpet. We lift the damaged planks and drop in replacements, usually in under an hour, and if you've kept the spare box from the original job it's an exact match rather than a close one.
Flooring itself isn't a Healthy Homes requirement, but the work often lands at the same time as insulation, extraction or heating. If your other trades are booked, tell us the dates and we'll fit in rather than clash, because a floor going down before a ceiling gets opened up is a waste of everyone's money.
The combination on this page is our floor, not a starting bid. We can source cheaper product, but past a point it stops being economical, because a floor that needs replacing at the next turnover costs more than the one that didn't. We'd rather tell you that than sell you the cheap one.
Send us the address and the vacate date. We'll measure it, price the whole unit as one number, and work to your turnover window.
