Hybrid Flooring FAQ

Can You Put Underlay Under Hybrid Flooring?

If you're considering hybrid flooring for your home, you might have a few questions about the installation process. Here's everything you need to know about underlayment for hybrid flooring, from why you need it to how to install it.

Why Do I Need Underlayment for Hybrid Flooring?

Underlayment is a layer of material that's installed between your subfloor and your new flooring. It provides a smooth, level surface for your flooring to rest on and acts as a buffer against changes in temperature and humidity. That's important for all types of flooring, but it's especially important for hybrid flooring.

Hybrid flooring is made of both vinyl and cork, which means it's more sensitive to changes in temperature and humidity than other types of flooring. Installing an underlayment will help protect your floors from warping or cupping due to these fluctuations. In addition, underlayment can also help reduce noise from foot traffic and make your floors more comfortable to walk on.

How Do I Install Underlayment for Hybrid Flooring?

Installing an underlayment is a relatively simple process, but there are a few things you'll need to keep in mind. First, be sure to choose an underlayment that's designed specifically for use with hybrid flooring. Some types of underlayment can degrade quickly when exposed to moisture, so it's important to use one that's compatible with your floors.

You'll also want to make sure the underlayment you choose is thick enough to provide adequate protection for your floors. We recommend using an underlayment that's at least 3mm thick. Once you've selected the right type of underlayment, simply roll it out over your subfloor and secure it in place with double-sided tape or nails.
