What do we do as a part of the laminate floor fitting service?

Step 1. Project estimation. Before taking on any job, the laminate floor installation specialists will visit your property to determine the scope of work, including the examination of the sub-floor and potential underlying challenges, and advise you on materials. They will also discuss all the details with you and provide a free quote.
Step 2. Preparation of the sub-floor. Before laying the laminate flooring, the experts need to ensure that there is no unevenness or damage to the sub-floor. If the floor is sloppy, it may need to be levelled before installation. They will also make sure that the floor is free of dirt and debris before installation, to make sure that the laminate lays perfectly.
Step 3. Underlay installation. In the next step, an underlay will be installed. It serves as a protective layer between your flooring and the sub-floor. Apart from that, the underlay can help with protecting the laminate flooring from moisture and reduce excess noise.
Step 4. Laminate floor laying. Laminate floors are installed using click-lock boards. This system eliminates the need for adhesives, nails or staples, which makes it much cheaper than other flooring solutions. Using the right flooring installation method, the experts will fit the laminate boards.
Step 5. Finishing touches. Once the installation is done, the technicians will need to add some finishing touches, like laminate moulding and trimming, to create a seamless and beautiful look of the room.

What are the benefits of laminate flooring?

Laminate flooring is a popular alternative for those who want to create a beautiful wooden floor design but don’t have resources for real timber flooring. However, just because it’s not made of solid wood, it doesn’t mean that it is less durable. That being said, laminate floorboards have a number of advantages, like:

Easy installation - Laminate can be installed on almost any type of surface, including cork, hardwood, stone, marble and concrete. The only exception is carpet flooring, as it is soft and won’t provide the necessary support for the laminate boards to remain sturdy.
Realistic designs - A high-quality laminate finish resembles real wood and can be hard to distinguish from actual timber. It is also available in a range of colours, styles and patterns.
Hygienic and easy-to-clean surface - Regular cleaning won’t be hard if you have laminate flooring, because all it requires is sweeping and mopping once a week. And if you suffer from allergies, you can be safe, as the dust and allergens have nowhere to hide.
Scratch and water resistance - Modern floorboards are created with a tough wear layer that protects the surface from the everyday pressures of life. And their water-resistant qualities make laminate floors suitable for kitchens.
Laminate scratch repair options available - Even though laminate flooring is known as durable and scratch-resistant flooring, accidents may happen. You don't have to worry about plank replacements, matching colours and disassembling the entire floor just to replace a single floorboard. The innovative laminate floor scratch repair service is designed to save you lots of time and money and give you flawless results making the scratches, dents, stains or discolourations invisible.

The final looks of your flooring will depend on how the floor was installed, which is why it is highly recommended to get it professionally fitted. Even though the process might seem straightforward, it involves certain details that only an experienced fitter is familiar with. Certified laminate floor fitters in London will be able to prepare the underfloor and assemble the laminate boards, as they know the proper installation methods and carry the right tools with them.

Frequently asked questions about London laminate floor installation

Do you need underlayment for laminate flooring?

A laminate floor requires an underlayment. Because laminate is a floating floor, it needs a layer of sturdy support underneath it. The right underlayment provides stability for the laminate boards, so the locking system remains in place, reduces noise and protects them from moisture. Your floor installation specialist will be able to recommend the best underlayment option specifically for your project.

Is laminate waterproof?

No, it is not. Oftentimes, people mix up “waterproof” and “water-resistant”. Laminate is water-resistant, which means that it is designed to withstand spillages to some extend. If water is left on the surface for a long time, it will damage the flooring by penetrating it.

How long does laminate flooring last?

It depends. On average, the lifespan of laminate flooring varies between 15 and 25 years. However, if taken good care of, you can prolong its life for up to 30 years. The essential factors contributing to the longevity of laminate flooring are the installation and material quality, the amount of traffic it receives, and maintenance frequency.

Is it important to level the floor before installation?

Technically, you can install laminate flooring on an uneven floor, but your floor will bend and bounce each time weight is applied, resulting in a damaged locking system and gaps between the boards.

Can I get laminate flooring installed in the kitchen?

Laminate flooring is a perfect choice for your kitchen because it can survive the wear and tear of everyday life. Its durability and ease of maintenance make laminate sheets a perfect fit for any type of kitchen. Installed with the right underlayment, it will be protected from excess moisture and noise.

Can I install laminate flooring with underfloor heating?

Yes, laminate floors are compatible with underfloor heating. Usually, the temperature should not exceed 27˚C. However, we highly recommend double-checking the information with your flooring manufacturer.
