How to compare flooring for the room and substrate

Direct answer: Begin with substrate condition, moisture and exposure, room use, required build-up and adjacent levels; then compare material, finish, plank or tile format, installation method, maintenance and repair strategy.

Before you choose: dimensions, materials & care

Selection dimensions

Compare every option on the same fields.

Room and exposure

Separate dry living areas, wet zones, entrances, kitchens, bedrooms and any exterior or temperature-sensitive conditions.

Build-up and transitions

Coordinate thickness, underlay or adhesive, thresholds, doors, skirtings, stairs, cabinets and adjacent floor levels.

Use and care

Compare cleaning, surface renewal, replacement strategy, visible variation and the exact evidence needed for the intended use.

Decision rules

Use constraints to narrow the shortlist.

  1. Reject a flooring option when the substrate or total build-up cannot support the proposed installation.
  2. Approve colour and variation from a current sample or batch-aware process, not a screen alone.
  3. Confirm moisture testing, preparation and installation method with the responsible installer.

Limitations
