A floating floor is either an engineered or laminate floor that is not affixed to the subfloor. A thin soft pad which protects against moisture, reduces noise, and adds a cushion under foot is first laid over the subfloor. Then the floor is installed over it. The tongue and groove boards are held together either by glue or by a click and lock system. A floating floor installation is quick and easy, ideal for the do-it-yourself homeowner.

Please consult the manufacturer for specific installation instructions.
