With the patented uniclic multifit vinyl planks can be installed horizontally vertically or at an angle so installation is easy and saves you both money and time. Vinyl planks require hard thin underlay because the product itself is softer. Wear layers and topcoats can protect the surface of your floor but underlay adds a layer of protection to the bottom of your boards or tiles. With certain types of flooring the underlayment can be just as important as the floor itself.

While underlayment for vinyl planks may be used under hardwood and laminate the reverse is not true. Mohawk s luxury vinyl tile plank and sheet vinyl offers a durable protective top layer that resists scratches dents and stains from family pets. Activesound underlayment improves comfort by offering excellent acoustics and subfloor correcting properties for fast track installations. The easiest way to figure out if you need underlayment for your new vinyl plank flooring is to look at your current floor.

While vinyl flooring is known for its resiliency it would be a major mistake to overlook the underlayment. Putting a soft product under vinyl plank will result in an unstable floor that is much more inclined to being damaged and even punctured or torn over time.
