Hybrid flooring is an innovative new type of waterproof flooring, bringing the best characteristics of both vinyl and laminate floors to create an improved floating floor. Hybrid floors are made of multiple layers of materials pressed together and come in a wide range of designs and styles. Hybrid floors are also 100% waterproof and suitable for all areas of the house (including the kitchen, and other wet areas). The top layer is a UV-coated wear & tear layer, the second layer is a decorative print with the desired design, and the centre is a composite core board that is waterproof and stable. Finally, there is an acoustic backing that increases foot comfort and reduces sound resonance. Hybrid flooring is an affordable flooring option and has quickly emerged as one of the most popular floorboards across Sydney.

How to DIY This Floor?

The easiest DIY floors are floating floors like this one! They click lock together and don’t need glue or nails - they're super easy to install and if you make a mistake, you can simply un-click them and redo it. Floating floors include laminate floors, hybrid floors, bamboo floors and even engineered timber (if you are after real wood).

What tools do I need to DIY this type of floor?

The most important tools are:

  • Drop Saw and / or Table Saw - to cut the floorboards and are available for $150 at most hardware stores, or you can borrow one.
  • Ruler or Set Square - to measure how much you need to cut for the end planks near the walls.
  • Pencil & Eraser - to draw the cutting lines when you reach the last planks of each row.

Other “nice-to-haves” include a DIY Flooring Kit (available at Floor venue), spirit levels, tape measures, safety equipment, and work gloves.

Pro installation tips

  • Floor Levelling - the subfloor refers to what you intend to lay the flooring directly over and is often concrete slabs, plywood, yellow tongue or even existing floorboards. Proper subfloor preparation is very important and you should:
    • Clean the subfloor
    • Check subfloor evenness (to prevent creaking and long-term joint damage)
  • Underlay - is typically a soft rubber or foam material that goes underneath the floor and provides noise protection. If you live in an apartment block, your strata may have acoustic underlay requirements that you must confirm before a project.
  • Expansion Gaps - between the floor and the walls to allow for natural expansion and shrinkage due to temperature and moisture changes. Consider:
    • Plank Width - wider planks have more expansion and should be given a slightly bigger expansion gap within the range below.
    • Environmental Moisture - if relative humidity is high, we recommend increasing the expansion gap size.

Frontier District 5.0mm Hybrid Flooring Flooring FAQs

Our Frontier District 5mm flooring puts a contemporary twist on some of Europe and Australia’s most fashionable colours. Using the latest in HD printing technology, our planks have the most realistic timber designs and the highest quality materials which can even be installed in wet areas of your home. Furthermore, we offer the ease and versatility of a floating or glue-down installation, two innovative systems which make the process quick and easy.

We would recommend that in order to keep your floors looking brand new, install good quality mats inside and outside external doors which traps grit and removes moisture from shoes, thus preventing excess dirt buildup on your floors. When cleaning, you can easily remove loose dirt, grit and dust with the use of a dusting pad or soft broom. Also avoid using solvents, abrasive cleaning materials or harsh detergents to clean as this can damage the floor surface.

Hybrid flooring grew to popularity in recent years, as it combines the best attributes of vinyl and laminate flooring. Hardwearing timber look meets waterproofing, these are perfect as low maintenance and easy to clean flooring. The secret to hybrid flooring’s waterproof and durable nature is the composite material which is either made of stone & plastic (SPC) or wood & plastic (WPC). The beauty of hybrid flooring is that they often come with pre-attached acoustic underlay, which makes installation and strata approval (if applicable) much easier.
