Hi in my condo I have a fairly sound particle board subfloor.
I was thinking of installing "Allure -Ultra", "engage- select plank", or "Coretec -plus". Vinyl plank over it.
They're 5 mm, 5 mm, and 8mm gauge thickness
They all have lifetime residential /10yr commercial warranties
Does anyone know about these brands?
Would you recommend these over particle board subfloor?
The subfloor feels pretty sound and hard and only has >1/8 gaps between different particle boards. Some have carpet staples which I could either remove or hammer down level.
Could I possibly floor prep or even paint the floors to prep them for this?
Any other tips or experience would be great.
