Quick-Step Academy for Excellence in Flooring AU/NZ

As temperatures drop, moisture becomes one of the biggest factors affecting a successful flooring installation.

Winter conditions can bring increased humidity, condensation and damp subfloors—even when they don't look wet.

Master tips & advice - Winter Tip:
✔ Always moisture test your subfloor before installation.
✔ Test levelling compounds before laying your flooring.
✔ Never assume a surface is dry enough without testing.

Taking a few extra minutes before installation can help prevent costly issues later and gives every floor the best possible start.

💬 What's your go-to winter installation tip? Share it in the comments—we'd love to hear what works for you.

🎁 BONUS: The first 10 installers to comment with their best winter installation tip will receive a FREE Quick-Step beanie. Competition ends July 31st (Australian residents only, while stocks last).
Because great floors start with great preparation.

The Floorscape team proudly presented our Impressive Design Herringbone laminate range at Flooring Xtra Mt Wellington last Friday! 🪵✨

We had a great turnout with installers, sales teams, management, and more joining us for an early start, breakfast included!

Our Academy Trainer, Diego, delivered a quick live demo showcasing how to install the new range and highlighting the advantages of our single‑board format featuring the patented Unizip locking system. He also spent time answering general questions from attendees.

Stay tuned — we’ll soon be launching a one‑day course in New Zealand dedicated to installing this exciting new product. 📅
