Laminate Flooring in Blyth
Laminate flooring is an extremely common selection of flooring due to its durability, ease of maintenance, and inexpensive price. A comparatively new addition to the market, laminate has quickly increased in popularity as an alternative for real wood or stone floors. Laminate flooring is a variety of synthetic composite flooring made up of several layers, usually with a fibreboard core topped with a decorative layer featuring a printed image of the design, and then finally protected with a wear layer that protects the floor from scratches and other types of damage. Because laminate floor incorporates a decorative layer that may include almost any image, it is available in a huge selection of different styles to mimic the appearance of many other types of flooring like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor features a smooth top layer, it can also feature embossed or textured effects which mimic other kinds of flooring. Laminate flooring is suitable for a number of rooms, but be cautious if you plan on fitting it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate must be used. When choosing the ideal laminate for your house, choose one with a suitable Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this specificies the amount of traffic the laminate is graded to perform well under. Laminate flooring is not too difficult to install because of its snap or click together design. However, it is often time consuming to install a substantial amount of laminate, and also tricky to cut the planks to the exact dimensions, as well as difficult to ensure that the right underlay and damp proofing is installed to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies can advise you on the perfect laminate floor for your home, and ensure that it is fitted to the highest quality.
