Does the underlay make a difference?

Underlay, Comfort & Sound Reduction · Historic BCC Q&A archive

Underlay makes a noticeable difference to comfort underfoot, insulation, noise reduction and how long a carpet performs well. The right underlay can also affect slip resistance and the way a carpet wears over time, and it should be chosen to suit the carpet fibre and room conditions (for example high‑traffic areas or timber subfloors). Some carpet ranges are available in wider formats, which can reduce joins; current widths vary by product and should be confirmed. For specific underlay options and suitability for a chosen carpet type, contact BCC at Unit 3/46 Bay Rd, Taren Point, NSW or phone 02 9526 6421 to discuss current choices and recommendations.
