No, you don’t use adhesive underlay with Solid wood.

Glue or secret nailing does not use underlay, you would fix directly to your Ply Preparation. Floating will require an underlay, ply prep of the floor will achieve best results then float the floor, or if boards are good, float on underlay over that. All three methods require expansion gaps...

What type of flooring are you laying in the area and how level is the concrete?

Floating LVT shouldn’t move much and shouldn’t creak etc, however, it needs lots of expansion gap around the edge and you can’t put much weight on it. It’s sold as the answer to minimise prep and speed installation over glue down but in reality, it needs the same prep as a glue down floor and...

Is this a floating LVT you had fitted or glue down?

Sheet vinyl should be able to loose lay with sealant around the edge, if you perimeter fix it, just spray suitable spray adhesive onltwo adjoing sides of the room allowing the vinyl to expand if it needs to.

I'd go with Packexe, we have replaced quite a few carpets over the years that had been protected with DIY store protector that had left all sorts of residues and bleed through writing etc on the carpet underneath

You can use Grip Fill to glue down flat plate based door profiles, just put some weight on while the adhesive sets. There are faster actingbadhesives available like Flexi-Fix too. The top picture is what you need for doorways to carpets, depends what the other floorings are that run off the...

Cheap feltback carpet or Carpet Tiles.

If you are thinking of glueing Engineered direct to the subfloor, you need to take moisture readings with a Protimeter or preferably a hydrometer and the subfloor needs to per perfectly smooth. The Screed you use to level the floor needs to be suitable for the bonding of Engineered Wood and...

I’d have the seam and choose an 80% Wool, 20% man made fibre carpet, at that budget, something like Cormar Pembroke 50oz Twist, I’d also buy it from a quality independent and not Tapi/Carpet Right I’d spec it on a firm 9mm puFoam underlay or even better, something like Ulster Axfelt65 which...
