Features / Benefits
Dual soundproofing function — Step Above® Flooring Underlayment will reduce noise from impact, such as foot fall, and reduce airborne sound transmission, such as noise from voices, TV’s and stereos. Step Above® has an Impact Insulation Class (IIC) rating of 72and a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of 72. Please see the Technical Data sheet for more information.
Makes Laminate floors Sound Like Wood Floors — Step Above® Flooring Underlayment has a unique composition that has a damping effect on laminate flooring. Step Above® HD will take the hollow “ping” or plastic sound away from laminate or engineered floor applications. The result is your laminate floor will have a thick, luxurious sound and will sound more like a real hardwood floor.
Not Just for Laminates — Step Above® Flooring Underlayment is our best underlayment for floating wood floors, engineered wood floors and laminate flooring installations.
Ease of Installation — Step Above® Flooring Underlayment is rolled into place for a quick application. Simply, roll out the product, measure, cut and place. Every roll of Step Above® has an overlapping, peel and place lip to ensure a proper sound and vapor seal. Once applied, there is no waiting time for the installation of floor covering materials.
Excellent Floor Protection — Flooring is an expensive investment. Step Above® Flooring Underlayment will help protect your floor from moisture damage. Due to the edge peel and place lip system, the flooring underlayment acts as one large seamless sheet, which will help protect laminate and hardwood floors from moisture vapor damage.
Excellent Performance for the Price — When compared to other flooring underlayments available on the market, Step Above® out performs the competition and beats the price. Step Above® out performs cork materials at a much lower price point.
In-stock — We stock a large quantity of Step Above® Flooring Underlayment. Most orders are shipped the same day and arrive at your home or project in three business days, depending on your location and size of order.
