Carpet and flooring in Hampton
Hampton stretches from the beach and the Hampton Street shops back towards Hampton East, about 14 km by road from our Huntingdale showroom. Edwardian and interwar houses and Californian bungalows sit alongside contemporary homes and townhouses, many of them recent rebuilds.
We also cover Hampton North.
Contemporary rebuilds and renovations
Hampton’s newer homes tend to favour wide boards, pale tones and a seamless look from room to room:
- Wide-board engineered oak from Terra Mater and Greenwoods for open-plan living.
- Herringbone in oak for entries and dining rooms.
- Wool carpet upstairs and in the bedrooms, in soft neutral tones.
- Skirting removed and refitted for a clean edge without scotia.
So close to the beach, it’s worth pairing timber with good entry mats. Our care guide has more tips.

Hampton flooring FAQs
Is herringbone more expensive?
The boards cost the same as planks (from $89/m² for oak, about $130/m² for Australian species), but herringbone takes longer to lay, so installation is quoted at the measure.
Can you refit our skirting after the floor goes down?
Yes, for $20/m² of floor. We take the skirting off, lay the floor and refit it, so no scotia is needed. We don’t paint, so your painter touches it up afterwards.
Is Hampton too far for you?
No. Hampton is about 14 km from our Huntingdale showroom and well inside our service area, which runs from Port Melbourne down to Safety Beach.
