Burleigh Heads

One of the Gold Coast's
most loved addresses.

01
The Suburb

Burleigh Heads has a character all of its own.

There is something about Burleigh that draws people in and keeps them. The headland, the national park, the stretch of beach that runs north toward Miami. The streets behind the beachfront, Goodwin Terrace, the Esplanade, and the quieter residential blocks running back toward the hill, are home to a mix of long-term locals, renovators, and a growing number of people who have made a deliberate choice to be here.

Burleigh has one of the most varied building stocks on the Gold Coast. Post-war homes, mid-century brick, modern renovations and new builds all sit alongside each other. Each one asks for something slightly different from a flooring perspective, and that is a challenge we genuinely enjoy.

We have been laying floors in Burleigh Heads for years, out of our Southport showroom on Olympic Circuit. We are grateful for every job we do here.

The Flooring

What Burleigh Heads asks for.

Burleigh's older homes, particularly those on timber subfloors in the streets closer to the headland, tend to suit carpet well. Wool and solution dyed nylon are the two fibres we recommend most often for these properties. They feel right underfoot in a home that has some age and character to it.

For the renovated and newer homes on concrete slab, direct-stick vinyl plank is the practical choice for living areas, kitchens and bathrooms. It is waterproof, durable, and the range of timber and stone looks available today is genuinely impressive. We bring both carpet and vinyl plank samples to your home so you can see them in the actual light of the room.

We assess every subfloor before quoting. Burleigh's older homes sometimes have timber subfloors that need a different approach from a concrete slab. That assessment is part of every visit, at no cost to you.

The Craft

Based in Southport since 1987.

Bell Carpets was founded in Southport in 1987 by Ron Bell. The business is now led by the second generation of the Bell family, from the same Olympic Circuit address. Nearly four decades of Gold Coast floors has given us a depth of knowledge about what works in this climate, in these homes, for these clients.

We specialise in carpet and vinyl plank only. That focus means we know the products, the suppliers, and the installation requirements better than a generalist ever could. Which pile types hold their line in a coastal climate. How to read a subfloor before anything goes down. When you call us about a Burleigh Heads job, you are talking to people who have laid floors across this suburb for years. We are still learning. We think that is exactly as it should be.
