Hi there
I'm currently looking into the best underlayment for an engineered wood or solid wood flooring. The subfloor is concrete and is pretty level. There are imperfections caused by remains of glue left by a recent installation of wood floor which needed to be removed due to faults and poor quality.
I'm installing the floor myself this time and don't want to reglue as I would like some thermal protection.
I'm looking at using Timbermate Excel and then glueing the T&G's. I was hoping that this product would easily deal with the roughness that has been left by the glue.
Are there any downsides to this product and method of installation? FYI, the flooring will be installed in a 20sqm lounge and continued into a similar sized kitchen diner (no door bar).
What other underlayment products would you recommend? I don't want to scrimp on the underlayment, I simply want the best stuff for the job without spending silly money.
Many thanks
