Hybrid is the floor we get asked for more than any other, and it is easy to see why. It borrows the best of both worlds, the stability of vinyl with the rigid, timber-like feel of laminate, and it is 100% waterproof. Warm underfoot, low fuss and tough enough for the whole house, it is the safe all-rounder when you are not sure which way to go.
What makes hybrid such an all-rounder
A few reasons it is the floor we fit most often:
-
100% waterproof. It suits living areas, hallways and bedrooms; for kitchens, laundries and bathrooms we recommend vinyl plank.
-
Rigid and stable. The firm core copes with Adelaide's temperature swings.
-
Warm and quiet underfoot. With a solid, timber-like feel.
-
Tough wear layer. It handles kids, pets and busy households.

Where hybrid works (and where it does not)
Living areas, hallways, bedrooms and open-plan spaces, where its waterproof core shrugs off spills and it stays put through Adelaide's temperature swings. Because hybrid is a floating floor, water can work its way underneath at the edges and joins, so for kitchens, laundries and bathrooms we recommend vinyl plank instead.
Plank or herringbone?
Most homes look great in classic planks, while herringbone adds a bit of designer flair to an entry or living room. Both are fully waterproof and built to go the distance.

Thickness and underlay
Hybrid boards come in a range of thicknesses, and a thicker board with an attached acoustic backing feels more solid and quieter underfoot. Most hybrids click together over a thin underlay, and we will match the right setup to your subfloor when we quote. There is more in our guide to caring for your floors.
