Black Wood Flooring

Why Choose Black Wood Flooring?

The Timeless Appeal of Black

Black is not just a colour; it's a statement of style and sophistication. Its timeless appeal lies in its versatility and ability to convey a range of emotions – from power and status to mystery and elegance. Black is always chic and never out of fashion, making it an ideal choice for any setting.

Perfect Pairings

Black wood flooring offers incredible versatility, easily complementing a wide range of colours. It especially shines when paired with colours like turquoise, red, dandelion yellow, lime green, royal blue, fuchsia, cream, lavender, and white. These combinations create striking contrasts that bring any space to life.

Transforming Your Hardwood Floors

Interested in a black wood floor? Our ebony staining process can transform any hardwood floor into a deep, rich black. This intricate process is perfected in our engineered timber floors, which come pre-finished in ebony – saving you the hassle of staining and ensuring a professional, long-lasting finish.

What is special about the colour black?

Black is one of the few colours that can seamlessly be incorporated into any design. It has a full-spectrum status when it comes to meaning and aesthetic. In design, black has been traditionally used to evoke feelings of:

• Power
• Status
• Mystery
• Elegance
• Sophistication

Perhaps the most important thing that makes black special is that it is chic, and always on-trend. Black never goes out of fashion, in any industry. 

What colours should you contrast with black wood?

Like white wood, black wood is incredibly versatile. It can be used to create extreme contrast with almost any colour, particularly lighter or neutral shades.

We’ve found black wood pairs well with:

• Turquoise
• Red
• Dandelion yellow
• Lime green
• Royal blue
• Fuchsia
• Cream
• Lavender
• White

These colours pop when paired with black, but you could also choose from a range of other available shades. 

Can you stain or paint hardwood floors black?

Yes, you can apply an ebony stain to hardwood. This will stain the grain lines of the wood a light black, while the rest of the floor will be darker, almost jet black. Generally the longer the stain is left on the wood, the darker the wood will be.

This process is lengthy and if handled without experience can be significantly challenging, particularly for larger spaces.

Our black timber floors are made from engineered timber, and come pre-finished with the ebony stain applied. This means you’ll get the chic black timber floor you need for your space, without having to stain the timber yourself.
