Laminate Flooring in Jedburgh
Laminate flooring is a very popular choice of flooring because of its durability, ease of maintenance, and economical price. A relatively new addition to the market, laminate has rapidly grown in popularity as a replacement for real wood or stone flooring. Laminate flooring is a variety of artificial composite flooring consisting of several layers, typically with a fibreboard core coated with a decorative layer featuring a printed image of the design, and then lastly covered with a wear layer that helps to protect the floor from scratches and other forms of damage. Because laminate floor contains a decorative layer that may incorporate any type of image, it comes in a huge range of different looks to mimic the aesthetics of many other styles of flooring like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor includes a smooth top layer, it may in addition include 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 intend on fitting it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate will have to be used. When choosing the best laminate for your property, pick 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 can be 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 installed to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies will be able to help you on the most suitable laminate floor for your property, and ensure that it's installed to the highest quality.
