Does Click Lok Laminate Flooring Need Underlay?
If you want to get the best result and long-lasting quality from your click laminate floor, then you will need to install it with an underlay.
Underlay is a thin layer of cushioning material that is placed between the subfloor and your click laminate flooring. There are a couple of advantages to installing underlay under your click laminate floor, for example, it will give you an even sub-floor.
Installing underlay will smooth out your sub-floor and make it even, so you’ll be able to lay your click laminate floor on an even ground which will offer your floor more stability. Underlay can also help with comfort. It will add an extra layer to your flooring making it softer and more comfortable beneath your feet. It will also help with insulation, making your rooms warmer and improving energy efficiency.
