Is the Springstep subfloor hard to install? What do I need to install it?

Springstep IV doesn’t require installation products. Its patented tongue and groove system allows even the most novice installer to easily snap its components together. It requires no nails, glue, or screws. You will need a circular saw to custom fit the panels to your room, but the floor panels require relatively little cutting. The Springstep IV does not attach to floors or walls, yet has the appearance and functionality of a permanent subfloor. The Springstep IV subfloor easily transfers to the next location, and it is always possible to add or subtract more square footage.

Can I install the Springstep over a regular concrete floor?

Yes, but it is imperative that you apply a concrete vapor barrier to the floor before you install. If the vapor barrier is not applied, moisture can collect which can damage your flooring, causing wood to swell and seams to spread. If you do not apply a vapor barrier over your concrete flooring, you void all Stagestep’s guarantees. Try our Bone Dry or Versa Shield vapor barriers to prevent these calamities and protect your investments.

What’s a marley or marley style floor?

A performance surface is flooring suitable for dance or sport. Performance surfaces are normally laid on top of, or are part of, a sprung floor to produce a complete dance floor or sports floor system.

Dance performance surfaces made of sheet vinyl are also called marley dance floors, dance floors or marley floors. They are called marley type floors because the original manufacturer was Marley Floors Ltd.

Theatres often have a number of roll-out floors with different characteristics to satisfy the requirements of different forms of dance.
