Hi
Our hallway has a concrete floor and no floorboards
We were hoping to lay a decent laminate floor . Should we put down floorboards and lay the laminate on top?

Suggestions welcome

We'd like the best job possible so that it lasts

Thanks
F

    Understeer is when you hit a wall with the front of your car
    Oversteer is when you hit a wall with the back of your car
    Horsepower is how fast your car hits the wall
    Torque is how far your car sends the wall across the field once you've hit it

    I just used the proper laminate underlay on mine - 10 years ago and all's well.

    You can lay laminate onto concrete with a suitable underlay, assuming there's no damp issues. Personally I'd use the green fibre-board sheets rather than the foam roll type underlay.

    I think, Laminated flooring is good option because it is easy to installation and maintenance. carpet in motion is a good store for buying lamination flooring.
