That is a judgment of the flooring contractor or installer. The good news is that they prefer to do so if at all possible. But their reputation is based on satisfied customers, so their advice is usually best - assuming you hire a good flooring contractor with an established reputation.

How should one prepare a floor before putting down new vinyl flooring?
It depends on the type of floor that you are putting down the vinyl flooring on top of. If it is concrete, then make sure it is clean, dry and repair any cracks or holes. If the old vinyl flooring is in good repair then just put the new vinyl flooring over it or use an embossing leveler for slightly worn vinyl flooring. If the old vinyl flooring is in very poor shape remove it completely. Plywood underlayment can be used for other types of flooring that you will put new vinyl flooring down on top of.
