Subfloor Membrane Panel 3/4 in. x 2 ft. x 2 ft. Oriented Strand Board

Unless you specifically have moisture concerns and/or a perfectly smooth floor, avoid it. The shims either don't help or complicate the process. And the last batch I bought for the second half of my house are uneven. I'm too far in to change plans now, but I'm having to sand down the side of every fourth or fifth panel.

We installed this a few years back and it held up pretty well. Installation was pretty smooth and it looked nice and put together. The problem was what we ended up having a little bit of a flood - not enough that it went over the dricore, but enough that it seeped under the subfloor. The subfloor did its job and the basement almost felt like it was floating since the water was kept at bay underneath, however the tongue-and-groove design meant that though the center of each panel was protected, the grooves were not. We ended up with nearly all of our panels showing water absorption along each of the grooves and, after a short while, ended up with a TON of mold growing all over it since it's made almost entirely of organic materials. I think if there is a perfectly level basement in an area where you are very certain you'll never have a problem with more water than the depth of the little teeth that lift up the Dricore, then this is a good product. It does a nice job allowing airflow and circulation under to help dry out in those scenarios, it also does provide a nice layer of insulation to keep he basement warm. Unfortunately, if you have that scenario, you may not feel the need to install this anyway! If you are genuinely concerned about water build up in your basement, I do not think this is the product for you. I am currently having the entire subfloor removed as I type this because the mold build up is so bad that it's really not reparable. I'm unsure what we will do for flooring once this is up, but I know it will not be anything organic since I am certain we will have water issues again in the future (nature of the beast with our house location) and am going to learn from this mistake.

Just what i needed for my damp basement, to lift everything up a bit and allow air flow underneath. I cut up my wall drywall a couple inches so higher than new flooring will be. Tongue and groove made it easy to install by myself. Found video online for 'how to install". Easy to cut with table saw and multi-tool. Make sure floor is level before starting. Needed some Dricore levelling shims and a Floor Installation Kit (tools to tap pieces together without damaging edges). A bit splintery on seams once assembled so i sanded a bit before putting down flooring.

The DRICORE Subfloor Membrane Panel 3/4 in. x 2 ft. x 2 ft. Oriented Strand boards are easy to use, easy to install, and will help keep our space warm and safe from moisture damage. I’ve been happy with the product and its quality. Home Depot also has delivered it in great condition both times. I would recommend it and use it again.

Dricore subfloor did a great job in my application for an undergrade basement where a lot of condensation tends to occur. Heating that space with a constant cooler floor condensation tendency really gives me peace of mind in that any condensate an evaporate and escape into the air where a dehumidifier can take it from there. I also mounted my wall bottom plates directly on top of the dricore. Inside the room I placed my LVP flooring directly on top of the dricore which was very convenient without any other preparation. Great product! -

I have used this product for many years to finish concrete basement floors. This project is my workshop floor, so it will not be covered over. Instead, I coated it with poly floor finish. DriCore is a quality product, consistently made so interlocks perfectly if you take time.

The panels worked perfect for my application. The tongue and groove on each panel locked the panels together perfectly and the insulation on the rear would allow leveling of minor imperfections. For larger leveling issues, using concrete screws allowed for pulling the panels together perfectly.

Product arrived quickly and was as described.

Went down on floor with hardly any issues. Great product.
