When you can do without the support under the linoleum?

Linoleum - Universal Flooring: not getting wet, it looks nice and does not bubble. And the last point is relevant only if you know what you puts it.

First, we shall understand, when you absolutely have to put the substrate:

  • Floor in your house cool - one linoleum in this case, can not do, you need a barrier to the cold coming from the basement or ground floor (especially if it is below - non-residential premises). Best of all with the objective of warming in this case, the handle substrate is made of natural materials: flax or jute.
  • You have uneven floor. I saw a bit of apartments, where the floor screed has been made perfectly straight, so you need a substrate. In this case, you may have a better substrate made of artificial materials.
  • You bought a single-layer linoleumYes, linoleum without backing today a rarity. But if you like just such an instance, then you definitely need to put a substrate.

But in these cases, you may well be able to do without the support:

  • You lay linoleum directly on the old floor covering

  • You bought a multi-layered linoleum. Typically, these types of linoleum are expensive, but the high price is due to their dual purpose: they provide a foamed PVC / polyester, jute or framework that acts as a substrate.
  • You have purchased a single-layer linoleum increased rigidity
