Laminate Flooring in Burntisland
Laminate flooring is an extremely common selection of flooring due to its durability, ease of maintenance, and inexpensive price. A relatively new addition to the market, laminate has quickly increased in popularity as an alternative for real wood or stone floors. Laminate flooring is a kind of man-made composite flooring consisting of several layers, usually with a fibreboard core topped with a decorative layer featuring a printed image of the design, and then lastly protected with a wear layer that protects the floor from scrapes and other types of damage. Because laminate floor contains a decorative layer that can include any sort of image, it comes in a huge array of different looks to mimic the appearance of many other flooring materials like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor includes a smooth top coating, it may in addition feature embossed or textured effects which mimic other types of flooring. Laminate flooring is ideal for a wide range of rooms, but be careful if you plan on installing it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate will have to be used. When choosing the perfect laminate for your house, decide on one with an appropriate Abrasion Class (AC) ranking, as this designates the quantity of traffic the laminate is ranked to perform well under. Laminate flooring is relatively simple to install due to its snap or click together design. However, it is usually time consuming to install a huge amount of laminate, and also tricky to cut the planks to the precise dimensions, as well as difficult to ensure that the correct underlay and damp proofing is fitted to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies can help you on the ideal laminate floor for your space, and ensure that it is fitted to the highest quality.
