Can Quick-Step® be laid on top of existing floor covering?

On the ground level, you must first remove any organic floor covering (carpet, parquet, etc.). Linoleum or vinyl do not have to be removed if you install one of the Quick-Step® levelling underlay floors. On plank floors on the ground level, you must first lay a plastic foil, softboard panels to level the surface and then Quick-Step® Uniclic® underlay on top. Under the plank floor you must have sufficient ventilation in the crawl space.

On the upper levels you do not have to remove carpets if they are short-pile and stable. However, you need to lay one of the levelling Quick-Step® underlay floors .
