Laminate Flooring in Brampton
Laminate flooring is a very widely used choice of flooring due to its durability, ease of maintenance, and affordable price. A relatively new addition to the market, laminate has quickly expanded in popularity as a replacement for real wood or stone floors. Laminate flooring is a type of man-made composite flooring made up of several layers, typically with a fibreboard core coated with a decorative layer featuring a printed image of the design, and then lastly covered with a wear layer that helps to protect the floor from scrapes and other forms of damage. Because laminate floor incorporates a decorative layer that can include almost any image, it is available in a huge array of different styles to mimic the appearance of many other flooring materials like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor features a smooth top layer, it can also include embossed or textured effects which mimic other styles of flooring. Laminate flooring is suitable for a number of rooms, but be careful if you plan on fitting it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate must be used. When choosing the best laminate for your house, select one with a suitable Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this specificies the quantity of traffic the laminate is ranked 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 sizable 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 inform you on the most appropriate laminate floor for your space, and guarantee that it is installed to the best quality.
