Laminate Flooring in Narberth
Laminate flooring is a very popular choice of flooring due to its durability, ease of maintenance, and inexpensive price.

Laminate flooring is a type of synthetic composite flooring consisting of several layers, usually 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 protects the floor from scratches and other forms of damage. Because laminate floor features a decorative layer that can include any sort of image, it is available in a huge variety of different effects to mimic the appearance of many other styles of flooring like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor features a smooth top coating, it may also feature embossed or textured effects which mimic other styles of flooring. Laminate flooring is suited to a number of rooms, but be cautious if you plan on installing it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate must be used. When choosing the right laminate for your house, pick one with a suitable Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this specificies the quantity of traffic the laminate is scored to perform well under.
