Underlays cushion the carpet, help reduce sound from rooms above and give the carpet a luxurious feel, foam ,felt, rubber, sponge, and different qualities in each, gives you quite a choice.Foam is usually
the cheapest around #1.50 a sq yard but a lot of customers have found it sticks to the floor and has gone to powder after a few years, felts can also be bought around this price but you can buy much dearer qualities
for use in special situations and for use with certain carpets, sponge can also be a cheaper option, but we recommend a medium or good rubber underlay, its a major part of the cost of fitted carpets,but it does not
usually wear out, saving you the expence of having to put new underlay under a carpet that has worn much longer and better than you thought it would
