Best Uses

Comments about Dream Home Quiet Walk Underlayment:

I used both the Quiet Walk from Lumber Liquidators and a product called Black Jack from Home Depot. Both gave my 8mm laminate flooring a soft and quiet feel. I found the Quiet Walk to be a tougher material and a little easier to work with. The Black Jack worked well but found that it was more of a foam product and would rip and tear easily. So, for the extra 6 cents per foot, the Quiet Walk was worth it.

Laminate Floors

Comments about Dream Home Quiet Walk Underlayment:

We put this over OSB; our floors were laminite and it sure made a differnce in the noise. We have small kids jumping and running all of the time...so far we completed only 120sq ft in a small bedroom and have about 600 more sq ft to go and do NOT regret getting this product at all. Price is good--did not want to go cheap and did not want to spend too much.

Q:
can i use premium underlayment on my basements floors instead of carpet padding. and what is the best flooring for basement floors
Asked on 4/21/2013 by shelly from new york
Know the answer? Answer this question
1 answer
- CUSTOMER CARE
  
  A:
  If laying carpet do as the carpet manufacturer recommends. As for installation of our flooring below grade, any floating flooring can be used. Floating Vinyl plank is the best for areas prone to moisture and requires no moisture barrier like laminate or engineered flooring. A 6 to 8 mil poly sheeting moisture barrier should be laid for floating floors for an On or Below Grade Concrete subfloor. Overlap seams 4-6" and tape with duct tape. Overlay perimeter 3-4" up wall. Then lay an approved underlayment for floating flooring (unless it's padding attached laminate). Foam Underlayment, Eco Silent Sound, Insulayment. Bellawood Premium Underlayment, or Quiet Walk underlayment for floating floors.

- CUSTOMER CARE
  
  A:
  Yes and no. It is a great vapor barrier and good moisture barrier however over concrete subfloor we still recommend using 6 mil poly sheeting as a moisture barrier for floating flooring.
