Laminate Flooring in Girvan
Laminate flooring is an extremely popular selection of flooring due to its durability, ease of maintenance, and inexpensive price. A relatively recent addition to the market, laminate has quickly increased in popularity as an alternative for real wood or stone floors. Laminate flooring is a type 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 covered with a wear layer that protects the floor from scrapes and other forms of damage. Because laminate floor contains a decorative layer that may include any type of image, it comes in a wide 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 includes a smooth top coating, it can also include embossed or textured effects which mimic other styles of flooring. Laminate flooring is well suited for a number of rooms, but be careful if you intend on installing it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate will have to be used. When choosing the ideal laminate for your property, decide on one with a suitable Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this specificies the amount of traffic the laminate is rated to perform well under. Laminate flooring is not too difficult to install because of its snap or click together design. However, it is usually 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 appropriate underlay and damp proofing is fitted to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies will be able to help you on the most suitable laminate floor for your home, and guarantee that it's fitted to the highest quality.
