It's probably not strictly necessary, but it won't do any harm - and
will stop any condensation from getting to the laminate. You can get
underlay which has a damp-proof membrane and a thin layer of foam
combined, and is easier to use than the separate stuff.


This stuff would probably be better as I think you have to put dpm up
wall under skirting and I don't really want to be arsed with removing
skirting etc.


You won't get a decent job *unless* you remove the skirting. When you put
the skirting back, it covers the expansion gap - otherwise you have to fit
'orrible quadrant which SHOUTS retro-fit!
