Laminate Flooring in Tipton
Laminate flooring is an exceptionally popular choice of flooring due to its durability, ease of maintenance, and affordable price. A relatively new addition to the market, laminate has rapidly increased in popularity as an alternative for real wood or stone flooring. Laminate flooring is a kind 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 finally protected with a wear layer that protects the floor from scratches and other forms of damage. Because laminate floor incorporates a decorative layer that can include any type of image, it comes in a huge array of different styles to mimic the appearance of many other types of flooring like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor features a smooth top coating, it can also have embossed or textured effects which mimic other kinds of flooring. Laminate flooring is suited to 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 property, pick one with an appropriate Abrasion Class (AC) ranking, as this designates the quantity of traffic the laminate is rated to perform well under. Laminate flooring is relatively simple to install due to its snap or click together design. However, it is usually time consuming to install a huge amount of laminate, and also tricky to cut the planks to the exact size, as well as difficult to ensure that the right underlay and damp proofing is fitted to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies will be able to give you advice on the most appropriate laminate floor for your home, and guarantee that it is installed to the best quality.
