Laminate Flooring in Seaford
Laminate flooring is an extremely popular selection of flooring because of its durability, ease of maintenance, and affordable price. A comparatively recent addition to the market, laminate has rapidly expanded in popularity as a replacement for real wood or stone floors. Laminate flooring is a type of man-made composite flooring made up of several layers, often with a fibreboard core covered with a decorative layer featuring a printed image of the design, and then finally covered with a wear layer that protects the floor from scrapes and other forms of damage. Because laminate floor incorporates a decorative layer that may include any kind of image, it comes in a wide range of different looks to mimic the aesthetics of many other flooring materials like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor includes a smooth top coating, it may in addition have embossed or textured effects which mimic other kinds of flooring. Laminate flooring is suitable for a wide range of rooms, but be cautious if you plan on fitting it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate must be used. When choosing the ideal laminate for your home, decide on one with an appropriate Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this designates the amount of traffic the laminate is graded to perform well under. Laminate flooring is not too difficult to install due to its snap or click together design. However, it is often time consuming to install a substantial amount of laminate, and also tricky to cut the planks to the precise size, as well as difficult to ensure that the appropriate underlay and damp proofing is fitted to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies will be able to inform you on the ideal laminate floor for your room, and ensure that it is installed to the highest quality.
