Quality Flooring for Community & Social Housing
Community housing and NDIS accommodation projects require flooring that balances durability, accessibility, and cost-effectiveness. Residents in social and community housing often have complex needs — including mobility aids, medical equipment, and the need for safe, accessible environments. Flooring must be robust enough to withstand intensive use, easy to clean and maintain, and compliant with accessibility requirements.
Mac Flooring Australia works with community housing organisations, NDIS registered providers, and housing builders to deliver flooring for social housing, community housing, and NDIS specialist disability accommodation (SDA) and supported independent living (SIL) projects across Victoria. We understand the budget constraints and compliance requirements of this sector.
Flooring Demands in This Sector
Accessibility Requirements
NDIS and community housing must meet AS 1428 accessible design requirements — including slip resistance, surface texture, and transition details at doorways.
Durability Under Intensive Use
Community housing experiences intensive use from residents with complex needs — including mobility aids, wheelchairs, and medical equipment. Flooring must withstand this without premature failure.
Budget Constraints
Community housing projects operate within tight capital budgets. Value-for-money product selection and efficient installation are essential.
Occupied Building Works
Refurbishments in occupied community housing require careful staging and scheduling to minimise disruption to residents.
Maintenance Considerations
Community housing flooring must be easy to clean and maintain — minimising ongoing maintenance costs for housing providers.
