When carrying out renovations in a house, every person is faced with the question of choosing a floor covering. Some want it to be completely natural, others focus on beauty and durability. Modern manufacturers have taken into account the requirements of all customers and offered them different types of floor coverings for their apartments. So, what do you have to choose from today?
Choosing flooring for an apartment
The most popular finishing materials are:
- Parquet. The most expensive material in its segment. Advantages: complete naturalness, the possibility of updating by scraping, durability, presentable appearance. Disadvantages: over time, the parquet begins to creak, and gaps appear between the planks.
- Laminate. It is a high-quality imitation of parquet, but at the same time costs less. Laminate is abrasion resistant, does not ignite, and is easy to install. Disadvantages include low noise insulation and the inability to use it in rooms with high humidity.
- Linoleum. High-quality linoleum can cost the same as laminate, but its tactile properties are less pleasant. This flooring can be laid even on uneven surfaces, does not crack, and has high moisture resistance and sound insulation. Cons: furniture may cause dents.
- Carpet flooring for apartments. A good option for a bedroom and children’s room. Carpet absorbs sounds well and makes the room feel cozy. But you need to remember that it is difficult to clean and fades over time.
- Ceramic tiles. The best flooring for an apartment with high traffic. The tile is not affected by humidity and high temperatures and is durable.
