What is hidden underneath also plays a crucial role in other areas of life. For example in terms of flooring!
No matter if vinyl, laminate or parquet, once the installation is complete you only see its décor. What lies below remains invisible to the viewer. Yet it is precisely this layer that is decisive for the long-lasting life and usage of your floor covering. To ensure this, it is always advisable to use underlay products. The pros from Koczwara have just extended the range of their accessory brand EQUIPPED. With more than ten different products in different price ranges, everyone will find something. However, before making a decision one should think about what the demands are. Modern underlays come in many types. Polyethylene liners have good sound insulation. XPS hard foam underlays usually have a high thermal resistance and therefore have a thermal insulating effect. However, if you have underfloor heating, you should pay attention to polyurethane underlays with a low thermal resistance. In new buildings, there is often the problem that the screed is not yet dried before the floor is laid. Here, the appropriate underlays help with a vapour barrier to prevent later damage caused by rising damp. Even when subjected to compressive stress, as occurs when laying vinyl floors with a click system or in highly frequented rooms, the underlay can protect floors and increase their longevity. To complete the picture, the professionals have a wide range of accessories. These include matching baseboards in 40 and 58mm height to CHECK vinyl and JANGAL laminate flooring as well as white, spreadable strips in several designs. They are shock and scratch resistant, can be glued or clipped and provide a professional finish. In addition, there are matching corners, connectors and end caps, which help to avoid unsightly edges and ends.
