    Hybrid Flooring Cost Guide

    Find out all you need to know about the pricing of Hybrid flooring and other alternatives.

    Priceless Durability

    In terms of price, Hybrid is not the cheapest option available on the market, but it certainly isn't the most expensive either.

    Although both vinyl and laminate are cheaper flooring alternatives, hybrid is by far the most hardwearing option. Meaning these floors will give you confidence in withstanding the stresses of the busy Australian household. With no need to repair or replace them in the future.

    Remember to factor in the price of trims and scotia when purchasing flooring.

    DIY Hybrid Installation Costs

    Hybrid flooring requires floating installation, which means you won't have to spend money on flooring glues or trowels. A pre-adhered underlay also saves money in floor preparation. Best case scenario, all you will need is a rubber mallet, floor cutter, tape measure, floor spacers, pull bar and a pencil. All of which (apart from the tape measure & pencil) can be purchased from Flooring Online for a total of $145.

    Depending on the state of your subfloor however, a floor levelling product may be necessary to achieve an even surface.
