Laminate Flooring in Uxbridge
Laminate flooring is an exceptionally 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 expanded in popularity as a substitute for real wood or stone flooring. Laminate flooring is a type of synthetic 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 helps to protect the floor from scratches and other forms of damage. Because laminate floor includes a decorative layer that may include any kind of image, it is available in a wide variety of different styles to mimic the looks of many other types of flooring like real wood or slate. While the majority of laminate floor features a smooth top layer, it can also include embossed or textured effects which mimic other forms of flooring. Laminate flooring is suitable for a wide range of rooms, but be cautious if you intend on fitting it in a bathroom as specific moisture proofed laminate will have to be used. When choosing the best laminate for your house, decide on one with an appropriate Abrasion Class (AC) rating, as this designates the quantity of traffic the laminate is scored 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 large 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 installed to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies will be able to advise you on the best laminate floor for your property, and ensure that it is installed to the best quality.
