Laminate Flooring in Huddersfield
Laminate flooring is a very widely used selection of flooring due to its durability, ease of maintenance, and affordable price. A relatively recent addition to the market, laminate has quickly expanded in popularity as a replacement for real wood or stone floors. Laminate flooring is a variety of artificial composite flooring made up of several layers, typically with a fibreboard core covered with a decorative layer featuring a printed image of the design, and then finally protected with a wear layer that protects the floor from scratches and other types of damage. Because laminate floor features a decorative layer that can incorporate any type of image, it comes 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 includes a smooth top coating, 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 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 property, choose one with a suitable Abrasion Class (AC) ranking, as this specificies the quantity of traffic the laminate is rated to perform well under. Laminate flooring is relatively easy to install due to its snap or click together design. However, it is often time consuming to install a considerable 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 will be able to give you advice on the most suitable laminate floor for your home, and guarantee that it is fitted to the highest quality.
