Longstrip features

All the benefits of engineered plus the ability to float. Longstrip can be quickly and easily installed in almost any room in your home by following floating floor installation instructions, gluing or stapling. You can install over almost any sound, flat, dry sub-floor (oak, ash and merbau only on radiant heat sub-floors). Longstrip is the do-it-yourselfer’s floor of choice.
