Installment laminate flooring over plywood subfloor. I want to confirm that I should overlap the underlayment approx 8 inches without taping together.

I appreciate your advice.

What do the instructions say to do it?

Is it 2-n-1 moisture barrier & cushion, or just cushion?

I had conflicting information. I saw where overlaying on concrete suggests overlapping while overlaying other surfaces you do not overlay. I am laying on plywood, so I did not overylay and it worked fine.

Thanks
