Choosing a new floor isn't easy. The supply is virtually infinite these days, and every type of flooring has its own pros and cons.
A good quality laminate flooring, which combines the authentic look of a natural floor with many practical advantages AND a great price can be a beautiful addition to any home.
What is Laminate ?
A laminate floor plank is made up of four layers. The base of the plank is an extremely strong, stable and moisture-proof HDF panel. The backing plate below it guarantees that the core cannot warp or collapse. On top of the HDF panel comes the 'decor panel': a very high resolution photograph of authentic wood planks or tiles, that is simulated to the smallest detail. The decor layer is finished with resin, and topping that is a final transparent, wear-resistant upper layer to provide the ultimate protection for the floor. Thanks to this unique construction, the laminate floor cannot be distinguished from a floor that is made from real wood or natural stone, but it does offer quite a few practical advantages.
Suitable for every room
Laminate floors can be used in every room and now with the added extra waterproof protection offered on most products even in kitchens and bathrooms.
The anti-static surface and the seamless click system prevent dust and dirt from collecting on or between the planks, which is an ideal feature for the children's rooms. You can even cover a complete staircase using laminate.
With the correct subfloor, you can even place laminate on under floor heating without hassle. And the robust core panels of laminate provides a solid, pleasant sound which means they are also ideal for apartments or houses with several floors.
Extremely Strong
Most laminate flooring manufacturers offer a minimum 20yr warranty.
Thanks to the added benefit of extremely strong core panels AND a scratch resistant upper layer, they are exceptionally durable and hard-wearing. The laminate floors are able to cope with scratches, playing kids, stiletto heels, the shock of heavy, falling objects and even scorch marks. Modern laminate floors are so hard-wearing that these days they are increasingly fitted in public places with high footfall, such as shops and airports.
By choosing a laminate that offers a waterproof surface you don't need to worry about spilling water or other liquids: simply mop up the fluid as quickly as possible and it won't have time to penetrate into the planks.
Worried about moving your furniture because you are afraid of discoloration? Even that is unnecessary: the protective layer applied to laminate planks means that your floors keep their original color year after year even when exposed to sunlight.
Easy To Maintain
Thanks to the protective top layer, laminate floors are very easy to keep clean. Dirt cannot penetrate the wood and a regular clean with a dry or lightly dampened fiber cloth will suffice to keep your floor in perfect condition for decades. You don't need to sand, scrub or oil laminate floors.
Choosing a laminate flooring with an anti-static surface means that they attract less dust and are suitable for people with allergies..
Cost
The cost of laminate flooring can vary quite significantly depending on the quality, thickness and capabilities of the product chosen. Call the store to discuss your individual needs for pricing.
Lifelike
Thanks to the newest techniques, almost all laminate flooring can be indistinguishable from a real timber floor. Even the texture of real timber, such as the knots, cracks and flaws, can be perfectly simulated.
You have the choice of virtually every type of timber in nearly every possible shade and in various plank dimensions......Which one will you choose.
