Hi all
I am laying solid oak flooring onto ply (with some floorboards at edges), and am torn between secret nailing, and gluing over a slatted underlay like this one:
http://www.screwfix.com/p/acoustalay-slatted-glue-through-foam-underlay-5mm-16-5m-16-5m/62862
Does anyone have any experience on this? Subfloor is mostly level but there are some imperfections, so I'm thinking the underlay may help mask these and also provide some sound proofing, although I don't like spongy feeling floors.
Cheers
Luke
