At Platinum Timber & Ply, we pride ourselves on partnering with builders who share our passion for quality and innovation. One such partnership is with Warren Jones of Innovative Design & Build Group, a respected builder delivering high-end architectural homes across Brisbane and South East Queensland. 

Warren’s team has integrated Platinum “R” Floor into several projects — and his feedback reinforces why this advanced subfloor system is fast becoming the preferred choice for premium residential construction. 

Building High-End Homes Demands High-End Materials 

“We do high-end builds across Brisbane, South East Queensland. I’m a part of every aspect of the builds, so realistically, choosing the right material is very critical.” 

For Warren, selecting the right materials directly impacts the quality and longevity of every home he builds. He notes that Platinum “R” Floor consistently delivers the durability and thermal performance required for luxury homes. 

Exceptional Performance in Demanding Locations 

One standout project was a bespoke build at Bunburra in the Scenic Rim, perched atop a mountain and fully exposed to the elements. 

“We’ve used Platinum R flooring on numerous properties now. One that stands out above the rest was Iliangi… really needed a product that was going to handle the thermal properties that we required. Platinum R flooring obviously handled that without compromise.” 

Platinum “R” Floor’s integrated insulated core helps maintain thermal efficiency even in exposed, elevated sites — reducing energy loss and improving comfort for future homeowners. 

Superior Strength and Acoustic Comfort 

Beyond its thermal performance, Warren highlights how Platinum “R” Floor outperforms traditional particleboard on strength and sound insulation. 

“Compared to Particleboard, it is chalk and cheese… The noise transference as well — you step on [particleboard], it sort of sounds hollow… Whereas with the Platinum R flooring… it actually feels really good underfoot.” 

Its solid, engineered panel design reduces noise transfer, delivering a more premium underfoot feel — something Warren says clients immediately notice. 

Trusted by Builders Who Value Quality 

“Would I recommend Platinum R flooring? Absolutely. We’ve already done it on a couple of properties… I’ve used it in my own personal property as well because I believe in the product so much.” 

With faster installation, fewer components, built-in wet area setdowns, and superior durability, Platinum “R” Floor saves builders time and labour while elevating build quality. 

“We’re obviously dealing with high-end clients and that’s where it definitely sets itself apart.” 

Setting a New Standard Together
