Laminate Flooring in Skelmorlie
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 grown 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, typically 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 scrapes and other forms of damage. Because laminate floor includes a decorative layer that can incorporate any type of image, it comes in a huge range of different styles 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 layer, it can also feature embossed or textured effects which mimic other styles of flooring. Laminate flooring is ideal for a number of rooms, but be careful if you plan on fitting it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate should be used. When choosing the ideal laminate for your house, select one with an appropriate Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this designates the quantity of traffic the laminate is ranked to perform well under. Laminate flooring is relatively simple to install because of its snap or click together design. However, it is often time consuming to install a considerable amount of laminate, and also tricky to cut the planks to the exact dimensions, as well as difficult to ensure that the right underlay and damp proofing is installed to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies will be able to give you advice on the best laminate floor for your space, and guarantee that it's fitted to the best quality.
