Outstanding Carpet Underlay or a Superb Carpet – which would you prefer?


Many people seek attractive carpets to decorate the place they live which offer warmth and satisfaction to the living space. But, when the need now arises to replace a carpet, given the current financial pressures alot families face we need to make a decision.

Do we do without some quality and decreased life of an expensive carpet by buying cheap felt or do we purchase quality carpet underlay forfeiting a few pounds saving and give your carpet a more satisfactory feel underfoot, noise reduction and insulation benfits whilst ensuring your carpet lasts as long as it should.

The floor covering is very important whatever location you are decorating. It completes the look and often can make or break the nature and look the room offers. With a mix of manufacturers, sources and outlets vieing for your purchase there is a chance to obtain a carpet at a smaller price whilst experiencing only a small degree of quality loss. This is achievable so long as you have the desire to chase around the carpet underlay shops and negotiate with the sellers.

On the other hand, felt underlay is a slightly different object. There seems to be many different types but these are regularly an identical product re-branded specifically for a supplier. However, ultimately there is felt underlay or foam (rubber) underlay.

Foam underlay weighs in at less cost which in itself has an appeal. However it has large number of devaluing features when compared to wool felt underlay.

Positively it is

• Less costly than felt underlay
• Readily accessible from wide range of sources
• Easy to lay witin most rooms

Negatively, it is not as soft and therefore as comfy in comparison to felt, has an inclination to distort in shape over a period and can regularly be found to break into small particles. Any loss of shape in the underlay results in your carpet being at risk to uneven wear and reduced life expectancy.

Proper felt carpet underlay is made primarily of wool which is known to be SAFE;

• Sustainable
• Absolutely natural
• Flame resistant
• Environmentally greener than other underlays

Wool felt underlay has extremely good insulating properties protecting your home from loss of heat and your wallet from excessive utility bills. Through keeping heat in it ensures your house offers an inviting and enviable feeling to your visitors.

Wool felt is tough wearing which will make sure it lives as longer life span as possible both of the carpet and the underlay itself. It never degenerates and is known to live longer than any carpet and is very regularly used again and again, adding to its very environmentally green nature.

Superior carpet felt provides the most protection no matter what the standard of carpet you are using. It makes the decision to obtain a better carpet floor underlay an easier one to make when faced with the choice.

So if you are being cornered into making a choice, choose a quality carpet underlay over a quality carpet and relish the prolonged benefits of quality felt underlay.

The rubber covering seen on the back of the underlay is frequently re-used rubber, which when you think about the fully recycled make up of Wilsons flooring underlay, it offers a wholly recycled option for your underlay requirements.

Despite these features, it takes a fraction more time to put down oin the floor and for this reason DIY stores are keener to push lesser quality underlay which can be installed in a more responsive time period.
