What Is Ply Installation & Why Is It Needed?

 

 

Ply installation means fitting flooring grade plywood sheets onto your subfloor (usually timber floorboards) to create a smooth, stable, and strong surface before installing your new floor.

 

Ply installation is recommended for:

 

✅ LVT installation (Luxury Vinyl Tiles)

✅ Herringbone LVT flooring

✅ Sheet vinyl flooring

✅ Safety vinyl flooring / cap & cove

✅ Karndean flooring
