Every month seems to bring new flooring products to market that claim to be water resistant or waterproof. But how do you know which products are suitable for wet areas in your home? And what rooms are considered wet areas?

Selecting the Best Flooring for Kitchens, Laundries & Wet Areas



Which types of flooring are suitable for use in wet areas?

So long as your floors are properly waterproofed in accordance with the NCC, Flooring 2 You’s range of Hybrid flooring is suitable for installation in bathrooms, laundries and toilets in domestic homes without floor wastes (Not to be installed within the shower or near a drain).

Our hybrid flooring is completely unaffected by moisture, and 100% stable when exposed to topical moisture on a regular basis.

Hybrid planks are composed by creating layers that are resistant to water and scratch-proof that are made to last:

  • The top layer is treated to make them stain and scratch proof.
  • A decorative layer gives it the look of timber.
  • The rigid core is innovative that provides stability, especially against changes in temperature and water, including heating that’s underfloor and windows that are north-facing.
  • The last layer is the acoustic backing that helps with noise reduction.
  • When it comes to other areas of the home, other products are also suitable provided the proper maintenance precautions are taken.
