Underlay or Overlay Below Vinyl
Anonymous user 08/06/2026 - 7.57 AM
I am moving into a new build being handed over with chipboard as finished floor material. What sort of underlay or overlay if any do I need to install prior to vinyl flooring?
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

MPL flooring.

If it's good condition, no ridges or big gaps and all the plaster etc is removed you can go straight over the top but if is not so good you would want to plyboard over before installing the vinyl.
