Laminate flooring is a very widely used choice of flooring due to its durability, ease of maintenance, and economical price. A comparatively recent addition to the market, laminate has rapidly grown in popularity as a substitute for real wood or stone floors. Laminate flooring is a kind of synthetic composite flooring composed of several layers, typically with a fibreboard core covered with a decorative layer featuring a printed image of the design, and then lastly covered with a wear layer that protects the floor from scrapes and other types of damage. Because laminate floor incorporates a decorative layer that can include almost any image, it is available in a huge selection of different looks to mimic the looks of many other types of flooring like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor features a smooth top coating, it may in addition feature embossed or textured effects which mimic other kinds of flooring. Laminate flooring is suited to a variety of rooms, but be cautious if you intend on installing it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate should be used. When choosing the ideal laminate for your house, select one with an appropriate Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this specificies the amount of traffic the laminate is scored to perform well under. Laminate flooring is relatively simple to install because of its snap or click together design. However, it can be time consuming to install a substantial amount of laminate, and also tricky to cut the planks to the exact size, as well as difficult to ensure that the right underlay and damp proofing is fitted to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies will be able to help you on the best laminate floor for your space, and guarantee that it's installed to the best quality.
The average cost of Laminate flooring is £700. Costs fluctuate based upon the materials and the firm hired. The upper price range can be as high as £805. The material costs are in most cases approximately £175

Balham is a district in south London within the London Borough of Wandsworth. The settlement features in the Domesday Book as Belgeham. Bal means ‘rounded enclosure’ and ham a homestead, village or river enclosure. The area has been settled since Saxon times, and Balham Hill and Balham High Road follow the line of the Roman road Stane Street to Chichester.
Balham encompasses the A24 north of Tooting Bec and the roads coming off it. The southern area of Balham which is near Tooting Bec has a block of 1930s Art Deco flats named Du Cane Court. There is also the Heaver Estate which can be found in Tooting, which comprises substantial homes. It was constructed within the grounds of the old Bedford Hill House by local Victorian builder Alfred Heaver.
Balham is positioned in between 4 south London commons, namely Clapham Common towards the north, Wandsworth Common towards the west, Tooting Graveney Common towards the south plus the connecting Tooting Bec towards the east.
In WWII, on 14th October 1940, Balham tube station was badly damaged by air raids on London. Individuals sheltered in the tube station during the raids, however a bomb fell in the High Road and through the roof of the Underground station, bursting a water and gas mains and killing about 64 people. Ian McEwan describes the event in his novel ‘Atonement’, published in 2001.
