Laminate Flooring in Winkleigh
Laminate flooring is a very widely used choice of flooring because of its durability, ease of maintenance, and economical price. A relatively recent addition to the market, laminate has quickly increased in popularity as a replacement for real wood or stone flooring. Laminate flooring is a variety of artificial composite flooring made up of several layers, typically 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 helps to protect the floor from scrapes and other types of damage. Because laminate floor contains a decorative layer that may incorporate any kind of image, it is available in a wide selection of different looks 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 layer, it may in addition feature embossed or textured effects which mimic other types 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 should be used. When choosing the perfect laminate for your home, select one with a suitable Abrasion Class (AC) ranking, as this designates the quantity of traffic the laminate is scored to perform well under. Laminate flooring is relatively easy to install due to 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 precise dimensions, as well as difficult to ensure that the right underlay and damp proofing is fitted to suit your house. Specialist flooring companies can help you on the most appropriate laminate floor for your home, and guarantee that it is fitted to the best quality.
