Laminate Flooring in Harrogate
Laminate flooring is an exceptionally widely used selection of flooring because of its durability, ease of maintenance, and affordable price. A relatively recent addition to the market, laminate has quickly increased in popularity as an alternative for real wood or stone flooring. 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 lastly covered with a wear layer that protects the floor from scrapes and other types of damage. Because laminate floor incorporates a decorative layer that may include any kind of image, it comes in a wide array of different looks to mimic the looks of many other styles of flooring like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor includes a smooth top layer, it can 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 must be used. When choosing the right laminate for your home, select one with an appropriate Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this designates the quantity of traffic the laminate is scored 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 dimensions, as well as difficult to ensure that the right underlay and damp proofing is fitted to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies can give you advice on the perfect laminate floor for your space, and ensure that it's installed to the best quality.
