Anyone who has fitted carpets in their home will know that using carpet underlay is essential, preventing excessive wear, offering acoustic benefits and providing greater comfort to walk on. Of course, underlay is an extra expense when you’re looking to redo your entire floor, so many people look at cheap carpet underlay as a way of saving money.
What’s the cheapest carpet underlay?
When it comes to buying cheap carpet underlay there’s quite a lot of variation in price, so it is worth shopping around to get the one that suits both the job you need done and your budget. For example, our SpringBack Gold Luxury PU is one of the cheapest carpet underlay which costs less than half of what you might pay for a similar square meterage of Serenity Supreme Luxury Felt. Although it depends on your particular needs, cheap carpet underlays are often not much worse in quality offering underfoot warmth, acoustic quality and often amazing manufacturer warranties.
