Underlay implications ?

If Laminate underlay ( natura gold with DPM ) is laid wrong way on concrete floor would it cause problems ?

The concrete floor is NOT a ground floor..

thanks

    no difference at all. If concrete floor is upstairs I very much doubt you need a membrane anyway.

    No difference as the DPM will not be doing anything!

    Thats a relief, cheers for putting my mind at rest :T

    I forgot to remind the chap who did my laminate about gold side down , and when i got back from work he had done most of living room....

    It wasnt coming back up obviously, and my fitter's opinion was also that dpm not needed anyway.

    Apart from that confusion, he did a first class job at a reasonable price, so happy days :):)
