subfloor

Presumably you're still dealing with floors.

sub-floor - A smooth, level floor which is used as a base for sticking down thin floor finishes. Any rigid and stable material such as concrete or timber underflooring is suitable. It should be clean, smooth, and dry before adhesives are applied.
[Scott/Penguin Dict. of Bldg]
