Carpet Underlays | Parrys Flooring Solutions
Transcript:
Speaker 1: Hi Ian from Parrys Flooring Solutions here. When people come in looking for flooring, especially their carpet, one important feature that we want to discuss with customers is the types of underlays that you actually can buy with it.
Underlay is important for your carpet. It’s the backbone for your carpet in your rooms that you want to install it in.
Number one, it provides comfort.
Number two, it provides thermal insulation and warmth to your room.
And number three, it reduces the noise, the echoes of rooms.
If you didn’t have a carpet in there, underlay comes in a variety of thicknesses and densities, and that’s quite important to most.
Underlays range from 7mm to 11mm thick. Anything over that can be a problem for your carpet. It can destabilise the backbone of the actual carpet itself, and it will over flex the backing.
There’s a lot of companies who will void the warranty of carpet if you go over 11 years, so keep that in mind when it comes to the density of underlays density talks about how much it actually padded into a certain space of that so it feels thicker, it feels denser, and it provides more comfort and stuff like that.
7mm underlays are wonderful. They’re easy, budget friendly. Put them into your rental properties. You don’t have to overspend. They still work a treat.
A 10 to 11mm gives you the luxury and the comfort you want, especially your bedrooms, especially your home theatres. So consider that with a high density rating.
Whether it’s a new build, a renovation, or you’re selling your house or you just want to spruce up your place, consider a Dunlop Premium or elite underlay from Parrys that’s a 10mm or 11mm, and that will provide you the softness, the durability, the comfort and longevity that your carpet will last a long, long time.
Come down and see us at Parrys and we can show you all our underlays we have.
