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.

AquaFloor 12mm 7 Day (168H) Water-Resistant AC5 Laminate Flooring FAQs

AquaFloor AC5 Laminate is one of the only waterproof laminate flooring options in the Australian market. With a heavy commercial abrasion class rating and fully moisture impervious composition, AquaFloor Laminate is designed to outclass hybrid flooring’s waterproofing and the durability of laminate floors at the same time. Furthermore, these premium sized planks feature an ’embossed in register’ finish, with each colour offering 12 – 15 unique ‘Digital Printed’ patterns without a single repeat to truly bring out the beauty of natural oak and Aussie timber. This makes the AquaFloor Laminate planks virtually indistinguishable from real hardwood and oak timber.

The AquaFloor Laminate range is very easy to clean and maintain, especially as they are 100% waterproof and extremely hardwearing against scratches and dents. We recommend cleaning with wet mopping or vacuuming. Spot stains can be easily removed with a damp cloth. In terms of maintaining your new AquaFloor, using felt padding on heavy furniture legs and door matts are great ways to keep them grime and scratch free.

Waterproof laminate flooring is fresh in the Australian market in only a few select ranges. They offer the same highly abrasion resistant surfaces (laminate floors are the most durable hard flooring) alongside full waterproofing, which only hybrid and vinyl floors have been able to achieve. The ‘secret sauce’ is a composition of high density wood fibreboards with silica.
