I've seen some places sell either a floorboard where the top layer veneer is 1.5mm (15mm floorboard), 4mm (15mm floorboard), and 6mm (20mm floorboard). eg; this pic looks like 4-8mm of real hardwood Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: I work in flooring - do you have a flooring question? 595Dec 04, 2017 5:30 am Good morning.... the thinker the top layer of timber the more often that floor can be sanded back. The basic top layer of 3 or 4 mm means you can only sand back once or twice in its life time. If you choose the right colour in the oaks I think they will look great with a few scratches and dents, like an old church floor. Remember....timber floor? Felt pads under all your furniture.

We are building a double story house and planning to do floating floors upstairs as well (ie no carpet), but concerned about noise. We are already putting in soundscreen insulation between the floors, but wondering what underlay you would recommend, and whether upgrading it would make a big difference?? For some strange reason the builder is not keen on upgrading it.

Hi Michelle, yes I know about the sanding, my question is why some are 1.5mm and some are 4mm and higher?
