There’s Much More Than Meets the Eye to Flooring

Few people realize that elegant floors should look seamless. It is something you need to keep in mind when you are installing new flooring, especially if it is wooden or laminate. Whether you are installing wooden flooring or laminate flooring in Cambridge, you want that the flooring should enhance the beauty of your home and office. With simple maintenance, wooden flooring in Newmarket can retain its style and appeal for many years. A floor lay with solid wood will look and feel absolutely beautiful. If you are looking for the most authentic looking flooring then this is the type for you. With the exception of concrete, a solid wooden floor is about as durable as it gets. 

Even when damaged, it can generally be refinished. Finishing your floor with a high gloss varnish not only looks great but really helps to make the wood resilient and more durable. There are possibly as many finishes available to you as there are styles of wood. From Shellac to lacquers to high gloss the key to finding out what is right for you is to sample out different finishes on your chosen wood and laying it in your room to see what works. Due to the luxurious looks, resale value, and the fine clean look these floors will give to the home, many choose hardwoods over other options. 

However, you can save a lot of money if you opt for a laminate floor instead, without compromising on looks. Most laminate designs have matching molding to make designing your room easier. With other materials, it can be either difficult or impossible to have molding match, leading to some challenging design decisions. Installation is less time-intensive than it is for wood, meaning that the cost of labor is significantly reduced. This durable flooring can survive children, pets and everyday life without sacrificing beauty, design, style and budget. Do not forget that a warranty for the floor means a lot. Find out what the implications of the warranty are, what it covers and how long the warranty is for. So you get everything — class, style and durability — for a fraction of the cost of installing a hardwood floor.
