Laminate Flooring in Merthyr Tydfil
Laminate flooring is an extremely widely used selection of flooring because of its durability, ease of maintenance, and inexpensive price. A relatively recent addition to the market, laminate has rapidly expanded in popularity as an alternative for real wood or stone floors. Laminate flooring is a variety of man-made composite flooring consisting of several layers, generally with a fibreboard core covered 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 types of damage. Because laminate floor includes a decorative layer that may include any type of image, it is available in a huge variety of different effects to mimic the aesthetics of many other types of flooring like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor features a smooth top coating, it may also have embossed or textured effects which mimic other styles of flooring. Laminate flooring is suited to a variety of rooms, but be careful if you plan on installing it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate should be used. When choosing the best laminate for your house, pick one with an appropriate Abrasion Class (AC) ranking, as this specificies the amount of traffic the laminate is ranked 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 sizable amount of laminate, and also tricky to cut the planks to the precise size, as well as difficult to ensure that the correct underlay and damp proofing is installed to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies can inform you on the ideal laminate floor for your room, and ensure that it is installed to the highest quality.
