Laminate flooring is recommended for an environment where the “challenges” of children and pets exist and it is not significantly noisier than other flooring services. The choice of underlayment will have the greatest effect in reducing noise from pedestrian foot traffic. Your laminate retailer or flooring specialist will be able to guide you to the underlayment which is right for your installation situation.
