FAQ:
1.What is a laminate floor?
A laminate
floor consists of a wood image which is bonded to a high-density fibreboard
which has a hard-wearing, melamine surface.
2.What is an engineered board?
An engineered
board is made up of a top layer of wood such as oak or birch which is bonded to
several layers beneath and then finished with a durable seal. This results in a
stable and naturally attractive floor.
3.What is a ‘floating floor’?
A floating floor
is a system of laying flooring planks over a layer of underlay. The planks are
connected to each other via the tongue and groove and not adhered to the
subfloor. This allows the finished floor to ‘float’ over the underlay.
4.Why do I need to use underlay?
The primary
functions of underlay are to reduce noise and take up any unevenness in the sub
floor. Some underlays come with an integrated vapour barrier which also keeps
moisture away from your flooring.
5.Can I use the existing carpet
underlay?
We do not
advise the use of carpet underlay as this is not suitable for plank flooring.
It does not support the planks and would cause the boards to move resulting in
gaps in the floor.
6.Where should I leave my flooring to acclimatise prior to laying?
The unopened
packs of flooring should be laid flat in the room for a minimum of 72 hours
prior to laying. This will allow the flooring to acclimatise to the temperature
and humidity levels in the room where it will be laid.
7.Which direction should I lay my plank flooring?
You should lay
the flooring in the direction of the main light source such as the window or
patio door.
8.Can I lay laminate floor in any
room of the house?
Laminate
flooring is suitable for any room in the house with the exception of the bathroom
or other areas of high humidity. For these areas you should only use laminate
flooring which is specifically manufactured and guaranteed for bathrooms.
