  1. Types of Flooring in Plymouth Make your home look elegant with the best flooring type

  2. INTRODUCTION Choosing the best flooring for your home might sometimes be confusing. Here are a few flooring types explained, along with their pros & cons, to help you make the best decision. Types: • HARDWOOD FLOORING • LAMINATE FLOORING • CERAMIC TILE FLOORING • VINYL FLOORING

  3. HARDWOOD FLOORING Hardwood flooring is made from exotic harvested trees that add value to a home. Using this flooring type would definitely give your house a simple, beautiful and a unique look. • Advantages: • Quite Easy to Clean: A simple broom or vacuum cleaner can be used to clean off the floors and the best part is that hardwoods improve in grace over a period of time. • Easy to Repair: A slight scratch on a single wood flooring piece wouldn't require a complete repair; you could just replace that one particular piece very easily. • Healthy Air Quality: The most important feature of hardwood flooring is that it has no fibres in it (that would trap dust and allergens like fibre carpets) so the quality of air is very healthy indoors • Disadvantages • Maintenance: Hardwood floors require frequent maintenance in order to prevent it from termite attack. • Vulnerable to moisture: Hardwood floors should never be used for bathrooms and washrooms

  4. CERAMIC TILE FLOORING Ceramic Tiles have mechanical and thermal strength, which makes them useful in many areas of the home. Their varying styles also make them a beautiful addition to any space. • Advantages: • Provides Visual Appeal: They give a overall good look to the interiors • Easy Maintenance: Ceramic tiles do not require frequent maintenance. Application of sealant once in every four years would be enough. • Cost Effectiveness: When you consider initial costs versus longevity, ceramic tile overall offers the best "dollar per mile" of any flooring surface. • Disadvantages: • Cold Tiles: It does not hold heat very well so it can turn very cold in winters which may not be healthy for arthritis patients. • Installing Ceramic Tile: Ceramics are quite heavy so it is not very appropriate for installations in upper stories. If at all you need to install in upper levels, you need to get a professionals helps

  5. LAMINATE FLOORING • Advantages: • Design: Laminate flooring provides a realistic feel of an original wood flooring • Easy installation: Installation is quite easy and even inexperienced craftsmen can do the job quite easily • Durability: Generally you get a minimum of 5 years guarantee on the "wear layer" • Easy to clean: Unlike hardwood flooring, you wouldn't require wax to give a fresh look, a slight mop with even a clean dry cloth would be enough. • Disadvantages: • Hollow sound: Improper installation can result in creating a hollow sound. • Not proper for high moisture areas: It is not well suited for high moisture areas such as bathrooms and kitchens • Home Value: Your home will not get the same look and feel as hardwood flooring gives.

  6. VINYL FLOORING Vinyl floors are made of engineered products instead of original materials • Advantages: • Cheap: You can get vinyl floors at cheaper rates. • Moisture Resistant: unlike hardwood floors, Vinyl floors are highly moisture resistant so they can be used best for bathrooms and kitchens • Easy Installation: Vinyl flooring is relatively easy to install • Disadvantages: • Cannot be Polished: You cannot re-polish it; so if it loses luster over time, you cannot get back its lost shine. • Sensitive to Sunlight: It can get faded or cracked when long exposed to sunlight. • Chemical Statins: They usually are stain resistant but certain chemicals or substances (like rubber) can lead to discoloration of vinyl floors.
