Key Benefits

Available Options

Combilay

Combilay is a high-performance underlay installed beneath laminate and wood flooring to provide cushioning, support, and improved comfort underfoot. It helps absorb minor imperfections in the subfloor, creating a smoother and more stable surface for installation. Combilay also contributes to noise reduction and can help extend the lifespan of the flooring by reducing stress and movement over time. It is an essential component for achieving a professional and durable flooring installation.

Silentlay

Silentlay is a specialised acoustic underlay designed to reduce noise transmission between rooms and floors. It improves walking comfort while helping minimise impact sound and vibration, making it particularly beneficial in multi-storey homes, apartments, offices, and commercial spaces. Silentlay enhances the overall performance of the flooring system and contributes to a quieter, more comfortable environment.

Moisture Barrier

A moisture barrier is a protective layer installed between the subfloor and the flooring system to prevent moisture from rising into the floor. Excess moisture can cause swelling, warping, lifting, and long-term damage to certain flooring materials. Installing a moisture barrier is a critical step in protecting the investment in your flooring and ensuring long-term durability and performance.

Bonding liquid

Bonding liquid is used during floor preparation to improve adhesion between the existing substrate and products such as self-levelling screed or adhesives. It helps create a stronger bond, reduces the risk of delamination, and promotes a more reliable installation. Proper use of bonding liquid contributes to the overall stability and longevity of the flooring system, making it an important part of professional floor preparation.
