Underlay acts as a shock-absorber against wear and tear and will prevent the carpet pile from flattening, which can extend the lifetime of your carpet by up to 50%. Underlay also dramatically improves sound and heat insulation.
Here at Dixon & Franks we offer a wide selection of flooring underlay, perfectly matched to your specific type of flooring, whether it be for Carpet, Wood or Laminate Flooring. For example Cloud 9, Axfelt, Texfelt and Heatvent which is specially designed for homes with underfloor heating.
