What You Need to Know About Laminate Flooring in Gauteng
If you are an interior designer or architect, you want floor surface solutions that are durable, beautiful, versatile, and cost-effective. With the growing interest in green building designs in Gauteng, keeping up with the demands of clients, trends in designs, and environmental legislation is important. Laminate flooring solutions available from our branches in Gauteng make it possible for you to do all the above.
Whether you are an interior designer, a developer, or homeowner who wants to renovate the interior space of an office building or residential abode, investing in a floor solution that will last for years, reduce environmental impact, improve indoor health conditions, and which is low in maintenance is the goal. In that case, the cost-effective laminate flooring available from us is the answer.
Why Laminates?
With laminates, you can get the same appearance and feel as hardwood floors, but with a lower initial investment and certainly less maintenance. Installation is easier and though best done by a professional, you can, if you have experience in DIY building projects, install the surface without professional technicians involved. Laminates are very hygienic and can thus be installed in places such as medical facilities, nursery schools, old age homes, beauty parlours or spas, retail stores, and homes.
The protective layer on top protects against dirt penetration. Cleaning is as easy as wiping or vacuuming daily and once or twice weekly damp wiping. No special polishes made from harmful chemicals are needed to keep the lustre. Laminate can also be installed in high-moisture places such as the kitchen or bathroom, provided the correct type of laminate is selected and installation done correctly. Hardwood floors in the bathroom simply don’t work because they don’t offer the same resistance against moisture than purpose-designed laminates.
Affordability
Though luxurious, laminate flooring is very affordable, considering the cost of natural stone, ceramic, and hardwood, even when it comes to transportation, installation, and maintenance. With the luxury laminate floors available from us in Gauteng, you can create exquisite indoor spaces suitable for applications such as hotel lobbies, guesthouses, and the like, where discerning travellers expect opulence.
Versatility
Interior designers today look for versatility and this is possible with laminates simply because of the exceptionally large variety available in terms of texture, plank size, installation method, grains, patterns, and colours. This makes it possible to create the perfect colour scheme without breaking the bank in the process.
