Laminates - Underlayments

Q:

Are underlayments necessary in every laminate flooring project?

A:

A good underlayment acts as the peacemaker for a laminate flooring project. It corrects minor subfloor issues, it provides insulation, and it acts as a shield to subfloor moisture. It also provides greater comfort for those walking on the floor and helps in a room's acoustics.


Next Question: We want to put laminate flooring in our basement, where our son practices on his drum set. Can we do anything to make the room soundproof?
