I want to put a flowting floor on my basement cement floor my problems are 1 the cement floor has a drain in it so the floor slopes towards the drain.
Can you double up carpet underlay.
The main problem is that it would be hard to fit.
Having the pad rub against it self will break the padding down faster.
If you are thinking about using two layers of underlayment to raise the subfloor height you can use one layer of the glued cork plus the laminate.
If you take up an old carpet and find a wool underlay don t get rid of it until you re sure it can t be reused.
A good 1 2 inch.
No you ll both void any carpet warranty and the carpet backing will break down fast where it is doubled up.
References find any floor.
This underlay type is often one of the top choices for commercial installations due to it s tough hardwearing nature.
I have a problem im hoping you can have a solution for.
Even if you use 2 layers of 3 8 pad.
