I am looking at putting Allure Vinyl Floor planks intothe living room and kitchen areas of my apartment. They will be laid on a cement slab which currently has carpet.
1. I am concerned about the noise impact on the apartment underneath. Has anyone had any experience - good or bad - in this?
2. Because it's carpeted, I don't know how even the floor is. What will happen if the floor isn't even when they rip up the carpet?
3. I have had conflicting advice, from different stores of the same company, about underlay. Two highly recommend using a cork/rubber material produced by Regupol while another (the one in my local area) insist that it musn't be used.
Appreciate any assistance.
