You may have come across something called underlay, but do you really need it? Especially with vinyl flooring. The answer is probably.

So, what is underlay? Well, it is designed and utilised so that it protects the sub-floor in the various rooms, whilst also providing additional comfort and insulation beneath your vinyl. Underlay is often associated with carpet and other types of flooring like laminate flooring. Some vinyl flooring and vinyl tiles are suitable without underlay, as it depends on what type of thickness you have chosen. When choosing your flooring online, it is recommended that you either ask the customer service team at Flooring Direct or look at the product descriptions to see whether the vinyl product requires underlay.
