Laminate Flooring in Pontypridd
Laminate flooring is a very widely used selection of flooring due to its durability, ease of maintenance, and inexpensive price. A relatively recent addition to the market, laminate has rapidly increased in popularity as a replacement for real wood or stone flooring. Laminate flooring is a variety of synthetic composite flooring composed of several layers, usually with a fibreboard core topped 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 includes a decorative layer that can incorporate any sort of image, it is available in a huge array of different effects to mimic the looks of many other flooring materials like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor features 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 careful if you plan on installing it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate must be used. When choosing the perfect laminate for your property, choose one with a suitable Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this designates the quantity 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 huge amount of laminate, and also tricky to cut the planks to the precise size, as well as difficult to ensure that the right underlay and damp proofing is installed to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies can advise you on the perfect laminate floor for your room, and guarantee that it's fitted to the highest quality.
