Lime Ash SPC Hybrid Floorboards 7.5+2mm

Thickness mostly changes three things: how quiet the floor is, how solid it feels and what it costs. Thicker boards usually test quieter, feel firmer underfoot and come in longer, wider planks that read more like real timber. Our 9.5mm range is the thicker, quieter option with our longest boards, while 6.5mm is lighter and more affordable. Compare it with our 6.5mm hybrid or read whether thickness matters.

Yes, it’s our best acoustic performer. In independent testing the 9.5mm range rated AAAC 5 star (L’nT,w 41, FIIC 69), which suits many strata buildings. Every building sets its own rules, so check your by-laws or send us your building’s requirements and we’ll help you check. The full acoustic report is under Product Downloads above, and our apartment acoustics guide explains the ratings.

Yes. The boards click together as a floating floor, so there’s no glue and no separate underlay to lay. The 1820mm boards are easier with two people. If you’re comfortable with basic tools, follow our step-by-step install guide. Not sure it’s a job for you? See which floors suit DIY, or ask about our installation partner.

These boards already have a 2mm underlay attached. Do not add another underlay unless the product installation guide expressly permits the proposed system. Check any underlay or moisture-control layer against the guide, your subfloor and your building’s requirements before installation. Read our underlay guide for the questions to check.

The linked safety data sheet reports zero respirable silica dust content. Refer to the current SDS under Product Downloads for the product’s safety and handling information.

The linked product warranty excludes installations subject to potential water immersion, including bathrooms and areas with floor drains. A water-resistant core does not remove these room-use restrictions. Check the installation guide, care instructions and warranty under Product Downloads before choosing this floor for a kitchen, laundry or another room.

A clean, dry, flat subfloor. Concrete, timber and most existing tiles all work, but dips or humps need fixing first so the boards lock together properly and don’t move over time. Our subfloor prep guide covers what to check.

In most cases, yes. Hybrid floats over tiles as long as they’re flat, sound and firmly stuck down, which saves the cost and mess of ripping them up. Here’s how to lay hybrid over tiles.

Yes. The boards click to each other rather than to the subfloor, which is what makes it quick to lay and easy to repair. It also means heavy fixed items like kitchen islands need some planning. See cabinets and heavy furniture on a floating floor, how to replace a damaged board, or browse all our floating floors.

Yes. It’s scratch resistant, 100% water resistant and easy to clean, so claws and the odd accident are no drama as long as spills are wiped up reasonably quickly. More in can pets damage hybrid flooring, or see our pet friendly floors.

Sweep or vacuum regularly, then damp mop with a pH-neutral cleaner. Skip steam mops, oil-based polishes and harsh chemicals. Our cleaning guide has the full routine.

Yes, with matching stair nosings and glue rather than click-lock alone. We recommend a professional installer for stairs. See how stair nosing is installed.

Each box covers 1.66 m². Measure each room, add 10% for cuts, then divide by 1.66 and round up. Our flooring calculator does the maths, and the measurement guide shows how to measure awkward rooms.

Yes, and we recommend it. Colours look different in your own light, so order a sample before you buy. You can also call us on 0431 311 633 or get a quote for your whole project.

No. The linked hybrid installation guide states that this flooring is not compatible with any floor heating system and that floor heating may void the product warranty. Check the current product documents before ordering for a heated subfloor.
