Laminate Flooring in Glenfinnan
Laminate flooring is an extremely common choice of flooring because of its durability, ease of maintenance, and affordable price. A relatively new addition to the market, laminate has rapidly expanded in popularity as a replacement for real wood or stone floors. Laminate flooring is a variety 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 protected with a wear layer that helps to protect the floor from scratches and other forms of damage. Because laminate floor incorporates a decorative layer that may include almost any image, it comes in a wide array of different effects to mimic the appearance of many other styles of flooring like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor includes a smooth top layer, it may also have embossed or textured effects which mimic other forms of flooring. Laminate flooring is suited to a number of rooms, but be cautious if you intend on installing it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate will have to be used. When choosing the right laminate for your home, pick one with a suitable Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this specificies the quantity of traffic the laminate is scored to perform well under. Laminate flooring is relatively easy to install due to its snap or click together design. However, it is usually time consuming to install a large amount of laminate, and also tricky to cut the planks to the exact dimensions, as well as difficult to ensure that the appropriate underlay and damp proofing is fitted to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies can inform you on the most suitable laminate floor for your space, and ensure that it's installed to the highest quality.
