Laminate Floor Layers Longbenton

For lots of householders in Longbenton, it is the cost effectiveness of laminate style flooring that makes it the leading choice for their flooring needs. With engineered wood flooring coming in at four or five times as much and solid wood flooring no less than 10 times as much, it is truly a no brainer for some. It should be said however that laminate flooring is not quite as long lasting as solid wood or even engineered wood, though when you consider the price laminate can be changed more regularly when necessary.

There are obviously costs involved with laying laminate flooring, but these are still on a par with or less than alternative flooring solutions in Longbenton. Professional laminate floor layers will likely charge you about £10 per square metre to lay your floor, while there are similar or higher rates for laying solid wood, stone, tiles, vinyl, parquet, carpet, linoleum or engineered wood.

Possibly the main concern when you're putting down laminate flooring is to use the correct underlay. You might think you can save a bit of money by laying the laminate straight over your existing floor boards, but do not be tempted into doing this as underlay is crucial. Putting the right underlay beneath the laminate helps the performance, comfort, soundproofing, and appearance of your final floor surface, it will also last much longer.

As there's such a vast variety of makes and designs of laminate flooring, choosing which is best for your home might not be as straightforward as you believe. There are plenty of brands available, both in nearby DIY superstores and on the internet, so look around to find the perfect one for you. Popular brands include such names as Series Woods, Aqualock, Tegola, Quick Step, Egger, House Beautiful, Lamette, Balterio, WFW, Krono, Sherlock and Audacity, while the likes of Homebase, Wickes and B&Q might sell some of those plus their own laminate brands.

Bathroom Laminate Flooring Longbenton

In truth, there's a good deal of dampness and humidity present in bathrooms, so you've got to be mindful of this when you are considering flooring solutions. Tiled or linoleum floors have been the preferred choice for bathrooms in Longbenton up until now. Plenty of householders in Longbenton have taken a chance by installing normal quality laminate flooring on their bathroom floors, only to learn that this version of the material is not at all suitable in that setting.

Additional choices have sprung up on the market recently with versatile products like engineered wood, water-resistant laminate flooring, rubber flooring and LVT vinyl planks, giving Longbenton householders more options for their bathrooms. If you elect to go with waterproof laminate flooring in your bathroom make certain the floor you are laying them on is 100 percent dry. While waterproof laminate flooring boards are a perfect option for bathrooms, don't assume that they are meant to be wholly submerged in water - they are only intended to stand up against moisture on their uppermost surface.

Laminate Flooring Uses

Throughout Longbenton laminate floors are used in buildings both domestic and commercial. It's incredibly versatile and commercially it has uses in studios, classrooms, offices, shops, gyms, hair salons, pubs and cafes, whilst in residential houses it is frequently used for floor surfaces in dining rooms, lounges, bedrooms, garage conversions, conservatories, kitchens, landings, cloakrooms and halls. It's also quite often used for bathrooms, but flooring materials which are more resistant to the effects of water are definitely more effective in this situation.

Laminate Flooring Underlay Longbenton

When you are putting down some laminate flooring, you may believe it's fine to lay it directly on the tiling or floorboards underneath (I have even seen it installed over carpet!), however the most successful results will be accomplished by using an appropriate laminate flooring underlay. Providing a decent amount of noise reduction along with vital sturdiness and support, underlay is necessary because laminate flooring is actually a sort of "floating" floor, which benefits from having a pliable and forgiving surface to lay on.

Different products such as wood fibre, polyolefin foam, cork and felt are used to make laminate flooring underlay. The characteristics of the floor surface you're laying the laminate flooring upon is going to influence what kind of underlayment you should go for. For example, if you're installing the laminate flooring over floorboards or chipboard, an underlay made of wood fibre is the best choice. If you are installing your floor over concrete or screed you should use a combined waterproof underlay and DPM (damp proof membrane).

Laminate Flooring Repair Longbenton

Laminate flooring, a popular choice for both domestic and commercial spaces in Longbenton, is known for its durability and affordability. Nonetheless, like pretty much any flooring material, it can still be affected by wear, tear and deterioration over time. Laminate floor repair is a valuable service that can restore the appearance and functionality of the flooring without the need for expensive replacements, by addressing a number of problems.

One common problem that laminate flooring can encounter is scratches. These can be attributed to pet claws, moving heavy furniture or heavy footfall. Laminate flooring experts use different strategies to tackle scratches, depending on their severity. Specially formulated repair kits can often be used to treat less serious scratches, filling them in and blending them with the finish of the flooring. Deeper scratches may require the replacement of damaged boards, which is a job that should only be done by experienced technicians.

Water damage can affect laminate flooring, especially in areas with high levels of humidity or cases of accidental spills. The repair of water damaged laminate flooring involves identifying the extent of the damage and taking appropriate action. Individual replacement of planks is an option when the damage is confined to the surface of the flooring. However, should water penetrate the core of the flooring, more wide-ranging repairs may become necessary, probably requiring the removal and replacement of larger sections.
