    Range Strata Sentry

    After completing a DIY kitchen renovation, Louisa and Tom quickly realised that to truly transform the space, the flooring needed an upgrade too.

    Keen to take on the installation themselves, they were looking for a product that was simple enough for a DIY project, yet durable enough to withstand the demands of their busy family home.

    "This was our first DIY flooring installation, and we were a little nervous to begin with, but the installation for Strata Sentry was so seamless and fun. It was incredible to see how easily the pieces slot together and how effortless it was to cut down and fit into place!”


    They chose Strata Sentry in Sable Oak — a low-maintenance, family-friendly flooring that delivered both style and performance. The oak tones brought their newly renovated kitchen together, creating a cohesive, fresh feel throughout the space.

    With constant foot traffic and the realities of everyday life in their kitchen, durability was non-negotiable.

    “Our kitchen is probably one of the busiest places in our family home, so we needed something that could handle real life. We’ve already had a few heavy drops on our new flooring, and we were bracing for the worst, but there’s not a single dent or mark left behind. It’s so hard-wearing and solid! We will absolutely use Strata flooring again.”


    The result? A DIY renovation that not only looks professional, but performs like it too.
