    Is laminate flooring upstairs noisy?

    We're thinking of having one room fitted with laminate upstairs (used mainly as an office / spare bedroom). But we're quite concerned that this is going to be noisy for anyone who is sitting below that room. Is this a legitimate concern? Is there anything we can do to dampen the effect?
