Underlayment
Underlayment is a thin layer of material, typically made of foam or felt, that is placed between the subfloor and the flooring surface. It is designed to provide a cushioning effect, reduce noise, and act as a moisture barrier. Underlayment can be used with different types of flooring, including laminate, hardwood, and vinyl, and is available in different thicknesses and densities to suit various needs. Proper installation of underlayment can help to prolong the life of the flooring surface, improve its performance, and provide a more comfortable and quiet living or working environment.
