The Benefits of Underlay Flooring – for Moist and Uneven Areas
Underlay features many technical benefits for a wide variety of flooring. It is the ultimate solution for every floor. Firstly, depending on the type of underlay you choose, underlay can act as a levelling agent for your subfloor. Certain underlays can reduce subfloor imperfections and compensate for slight unevenness in your substrate. What’s more, underlay is also essential for areas that are prone to moisture exposure. For example, the Viscoh Vinyl Acoustic Underlay can prevent damage from water and reduces water vapour diffusion from affecting your flooring, making It ideal for wet rooms.

Underlay can provide protection from object impacts providing added stability and durability to your floors. Depending on your choice of underlay, it can provide shock absorption and resilience under increased loads. An excellent choice with outstanding stability under load is the Viscoh Air Plus Acoustic, a great laminate underlay.
