Laminate Flooring
Laminate flooring is attractive, and gives you the looks of a hard wood floor without the heavy price tag. These floors can be used in any area of your
Laminate floors can come in the form of High Pressure Laminates which involve a double step process, and Direct Pressure Laminates that involve a single step fusing process. Always buy a High Pressure Laminate that may cost more but is long lasting, and comes with a superior inter locking system. These laminate floors also offer a greater variety of designs, and high quality of finishes. If you want laminate floor that look as close to a wood floor as possible, buy from the higher end of the price range. Before installing a laminate floor, make sure that the sub floor is smoothly laid out, and check each laminate plank for defects and damages.
AC ratings for your laminate floor ensure that your floors are highly resistant to scratching and stains. Even then, use only colorfast carpeting on your laminate floors, and avoid moving heavy furniture across your floor. After installing a laminate floor, the panels shouldn't be sealed. Laminate floors also don't take well to sanding and refinishing. Laminate floors are resistant to denting and scratching, but still need some degree of maintenance to maintain their looks. Always look for an AC rating that determines the traffic intensity that your laminate flooring can be used for. For instance, for a heavy traffic area in the home like the kitchen or foyer, look for an AC rating of at least 3. Protect your laminate floor by using carpets near entrances, and avoid dragging furniture across your laminate floor. Any carpets used should be of high quality with colors that don't run.
