Labour pricing in Wellington typically ranges from $40–$90 per m² for timber or laminate, and $120–$180 per m² for polished concrete including grinding. Smaller residential jobs may complete within a week; large commercial fit-outs can span several months. Always request an itemised quote covering subfloor prep, materials, accessories and removal of waste.

A quality installation minimises maintenance, but regular cleaning, prompt spill management and periodic resealing (where applicable) will extend lifespan. Many installers offer ongoing service packages-ask upfront.
