Laminate Flooring vs Real Wood

Posted on December 15, 2011 by admin

Decorating a room can be stressful, trying to ensure you stay under budget whilst also making sure that everything you put in a room matches the overall look of your interior design. With so much to choose from when it comes to flooring, how do you know which will be best? Here at Award Carpets we specialise in providing a range of flooring solutions which we distribute from both major and boutique suppliers, ensuring we have something that suits every style. If you have decided on installing laminate flooring Gold Coast, we have a wide selection for you to choose from that is cost effective and has a low wear and tear factor, so is ideal for areas that have continual and regular use.

Wooden flooring is a popular choice for many because it offers a smooth and crisp surface that will compliment any style of room. The difficulty most people face is whether to choose between laminate or real wood.

Laminate

Laminate flooring is a cost effective solution to achieve a similar look to that of real wood, is scratch resistant and easy to clean. It has a life expectancy of up to 20 years, but rest assured you will get a two year warranty with any laminate flooring we supply.

Real Wood

Although it may initially cost you more than laminate flooring, it does have a longer life expectancy, sometimes lasting up to 75 years. Real wood isn’t as durable as laminate but can be repaired, whereas laminate would often need to be replaced if damaged. You will also get a more authentic look if you choose real wood.

When choosing flooring for your home, it’s important to look over the pros and cons of both laminate and real wood, and take into account your own lifestyle and family. Whichever type you choose, we can offer you a guarantee that we won’t be beaten on price for any of our flooring.

If you are looking for top quality laminate flooring Gold Coast to finish off the interior design of your room, contact us at Award Carpets to see the great deals we can offer you.

Advantages of Laminate Flooring

Posted on August 25, 2011 by admin

The flooring in your home has a very profound effect on the interior design and overall atmosphere of your home. As such, it’s no surprise that laminate flooring is a firm favourite with homeowners everywhere. If you are considering a laminate floor, the specialists here at Award Carpets Gold Coast are here to offer you some professional advice and outline some of the fundamental benefits that laminate flooring Gold Coast has to offer.

As a professional retailer of carpets, we have an in-depth understanding of the various advantages which laminate flooring has over other types of flooring.

Appearance

With laminate floors you can get the look of a real wooden floor, without the expensive price tag. It is smooth underfoot, and with the right interior could really enhance how your interior space looks. Nowadays, there is a huge collection of different laminates available, so you can choose a floor which looks just like a solid wood floor.

Health and Hygiene

The smooth surface of the laminate ensures that no dust or spores can nestle into the surface of your flooring. This is a great attribute which is very beneficial for those who suffer from asthma or certain allergies. A quick sweep or vacuum will remove any particles on the surface.

Wear and Tear

If friends and family are constantly popping over, and the children keep running in and out of the house, you may find that your flooring is bound to show signs of wear and tear. One floor which is hard enough to withstand heavy foot traffic is laminate flooring.

With a carpet you will have to vacuum at least one or twice a week. A laminate floor on the other hand, doesn’t need this much maintenance. In fact, you can give it a quick sweep now and again and your cleaning will be done for the week.

If you would like further information on how to care for your laminate flooring Gold Coast, or what other benefits there are, then please do not hesitate to contact the friendly team here at Award Carpets Gold Coast. Phone us on 07 5596 5344.
