Laminate Flooring (Gloucester)Laminate flooring has come a long way in recent years and good quality laminate floors are excellent value for money. Most come with a 25yr to lifetime manufacturers guarantee and as long as it's looked after correctly, it should look as good as the day it was fitted in years to come.

Engineered Wood Flooring (Gloucester)Engineered wood flooring is a more stable solution to real wood flooring, not to mention more environmentally friendly. An engineered board is made from several layers of wood which are glued together to form the board. This makes them ideal for areas which have irregular humidity or under-floor heating. Usually the overall cost of an engineered wood floor is very similar to that of a solid wood floor, although they are laid using different methods. A solid wood floor is fixed with glue which forms a permanent bond to the subfloor, whereas an engineered floor is normally floated (loose laid) on an underlay.

Solid Wood Flooring (Gloucester)Solid wood floors are the real McCoy and look and feel fantastic. However conditions for a solid wood floor are not always ideal. The sub-floor must be properly dry as Solid wood flooring is extremely sensitive to moisture and temperature. For these reasons it is very important that it is fitted professionally and the correct adhesives are used. We carry specialist equipment for testing subfloors for suitability. It’s surprising how many concrete floors are found to be unsuitable despite looking and feeling completely dry. Problems with solid wood floors are the most expensive to correct and that’s why it so important to get it right from the start. Preparation is everything.

Carpet Fitting (Gloucester)s much as choosing the right colour carpet it is just as important to choose the correct type of carpet for the area you wish to cover. Some carpets lend themselves better to stairs, some perform better in high traffic areas and some are simply easier to clean. Not all carpets require underlay but a good underlay will significantly increase the life of the carpet. The wrong choice of carpet could result in a costly replacement much sooner than necessary. Good advice could save you ££’s.

Ceramic Floor Tiling, Natural Stone Flooring and Slate (Gloucester)Ceramic tiling, natural stone tiling and slate flooring are an excellent choice for conservatories and other semi-outdoor areas. Again the sub-floor must be right for the job and often there is some floor preparation required, which we can do for you. Ceramic floors can be inexpensive and quick to lay, where as slate and natural stone flooring is more involved. Both natural stone and slate tiles are porous and need to be sealed against staining etc. during and after completion. Correct adhesives are again very important for areas with wooden subfloors or areas with under-floor heating. We lay a lot of ceramic and natural stone tiles into conservatories for High-tech Windows as it really lends itself well to this environment. |
