A Basic Guide To Vinyl Flooring

August 9, 2012 by

Vinyl flooring is a popular choice of flooring for many homes, especially in the kitchen and bathroom areas. It is a durable, easy-to-clean type of flooring and one that will last for a long time, when properly maintained.

Vinyl flooring is very versatile. You can find it in a variety of patterns, making it easy to find a style that fits your personal preferences. Even with this versatility, it is still possible to find vinyl flooring that adds a touch of classic elegance and beauty to your home. In other words, this is not the linoleum of yesterday – this is the vinyl flooring of today.

Vinyl flooring is quite easy to install when compared to other types of flooring. It is also more affordable than other types. It is fairly easy to change your vinyl flooring because of the ease of installation and affordable price. The price per square foot depends on the thickness of the flooring – the thicker the flooring, the higher the price. However, even the more expensive types of vinyl are still affordable for most any budget. [Read more…]

Understanding Laminate Flooring Classification

April 26, 2012 by

Are you changing out your current flooring? Are you looking into laminate flooring? There is more to keep in mind than color and style.

Laminate flooring has a specific classification system.  Understanding this system will help to ensure that you choose the right laminate flooring for your home.

There are two methods of manufacturing laminate flooring – Direct-pressure laminate and High-pressure laminate. DPL flooring is made by bonding four layers at about 400 degrees and at a pressure of about 600psi. HPL flooring is made by treating the two outer layers separately, then bonding them to the inner layers. HPL flooring is more expensive than DPL flooring.

The AC rating of laminate flooring refers to foot traffic:

AC1 – light residential foot traffic
AC2 – moderate residential foot traffic
AC3 – heavy residential/moderate commercial foot traffic
AC4 – general commercial foot traffic
AC5 – heavy commercial foot traffic

Both products work. And both can be functional additions to your home for many years to come. The key is to consider your options and choose the right flooring for you home and situation. [Read more…]
