What do floating flooring services include?
Floating flooring services include the materials, tools, and actual legwork of fitting your floors. In some cases, you can have a Tasker purchase the planks or sheets on your behalf. Or, you can buy these yourself and book a Tasker to take care of the installation. If you’d like some help moving the furniture before and after the fitting, they may be able to do this, too.Â
Though the exact details may vary depending on the Tasker you book, here’s what you can expect when you request a floorer via Airtasker:Â
Materials and tools
Your floorer arrives with the complete materials and tools necessary for installing your floating floors. These include shims, tape measure, a hammer, tapping block or pull bar, a circular saw or another power saw, a utility knife, trim saw, flat pry bar, wide putty knife, a combination square, and a pencil.Â
If you requested them to purchase the flooring for you, your hired specialist would get snap-together flooring, foam or cork underlayment, and tape. Not sure what colour or width of planks to choose for your room? You can consult an interior designer before redoing your floors.
Preparing the floor and planks
Your floorer starts by leaving the planks in the room for two days so they can acclimate to the humidity. Thus, it’s advisable that you get your flooring in advance. Once the planks are ready, your floorer removes the skirting boards and cuts the line between the trim and the wall to prevent the paint from cracking. They’ll remove the debris, roll out the underlayment, then cut the underlayment with a utility knife. After this, they’ll butt the sides of the pieces together and tape up the joints. Â
Installing the planks
Next, your floorer starts to lay out the planks and cuts them to size. Then, they’ll install the first row of planks. Your specialist will leave 1/4-inch spaces after every foot to allow the planks some room to expand. When it comes to the succeeding rows of planks, they’ll snap them into the first row, close up gaps, and offset joints by at least 3 inches.
Once they reach the last row, your floorer sets shims against the wall, measures the width in several places, then cuts the planks to size. They may use a pull bar to ensure a tight fit in this row.Â
Reinstalling the skirting board
Once you and your floorer are happy with the flooring, they’ll reinstall the skirting boards and seal all exposed edges. Sealing is especially important in bathrooms and utility rooms so moisture can’t get underneath the boards.Â

Repair buckled floating timber floor (about 1m²)
$200
Kew VIC 3101, Australia
1st Jul 2026
I’m looking for someone experienced in repairing floating timber flooring. A section of the floating timber floor, about 1 square metre, has buckled in the middle outside the laundry room. The floor buckles during winter but returns to normal in summer, so the issue appears to be seasonal. As far as I can tell, there is no obvious water damage. I’m looking for someone to inspect the cause and carry out the repair. If the problem is related to insufficient expansion gap or another installation issue, I’d like it repaired properly. Please include: * Your experience with floating timber floor repairs * Your availability * An estimated quote Location: Kew, VIC.

Fix flooring dilemma - floating boards?
$500
Ashburton VIC 3147, Australia
20th Nov 2025
We removed various floorings within the home to polish boards, which we are happy with. Within the study 2.2 x 3.8m tiles were removed and uncovered half a room of boards with some water damage and the other half is chipboard. The board section has since been polished to look more like image 3&4, with some water damage but no holes etc, it's a solid floor. I'm seeking to resolve this floor and let it blend in as much as possible to the rest of the flooring. i was thinking of some sort of overlay, previously in the kitchen they had installed click in floating laminate boards (poorly) which could be an option if it was the right color and installed correctly. I can provide more images but curious about cost and potential budget friendly options.
