    Hi all. I was hoping I could get some advice on what flooring would be best for a summer house/garden room.

    My daughter will be using a part of it to practice her dancing. This includes tap dancing. So we're of course looking for something durable and easily cleaned.

    We visited a store and they recommended Moduleo flooring claiming that because it's made for commercial use it's very durable and would be perfect. I of course did some research and have found a lot of pretty bad reviews.

    One fellow dance mum recommended a high grade laminate which is what she has and her daughter practices on. She said she's able to simply mop out any marks made by the tap shoes. I mentioned this in the store and he said while yes it can be suitable, laminate isn't great as it isn't waterproof etc.

    So now I'm stumped as to what to pick! What do you all think?

    LVT minimum of 0.55mm wear layer on jumpax with a HT adhesive, you want to decouple the flooring from the subfloor or the banging will drive you insane, then cover the expansion gap with new skirting don’t go with a laminate they’re not the right product for your use case, your other option is much more expensive looking at a sports floor (wood) installed over battens.

    Quickstep laminate is waterproof, tougher than lvt, less affected by heat and cheaper than lvt

    Most hardfloors will struggle in a summer house due to moisture/heat. Whats on the floor now?

    It hasn't been built yet lol but It'll be a concrete base which I'm assuming the flooring will go straight on to?

    Looks like a sheet product called marley vinyl flooring is the best product. Could still be installed on a jumpax or loose laid.
