"What Is a Subfloor? A subfloor is the solid material beneath your floor covering. It is attached to your home's floor joists and acts as a base for your finished flooring, such as carpet, hardwood, laminate, tile, etc. Typically, a subfloor is made of plywood or oriented strand board (OSB) panels. the subfloor will last longer if there is no leakage across the floor"
