In the process of repair work in the house, the choice of all the necessary materials for the floor is so important as the selection of materials for the ceiling and for the walls. So, with the floor covering, we are constantly in contact throughout the day, and therefore its value is sometimes most important. What can be the materials to cover the floor?
Tile. Such material is ideal for repair in the kitchen, in the bathroom. The difference between such material is moisture resistance and strength.
The fact that the tile is very easy to wash is important. The main drawback of the tile is that such floors are not quite pleasant to the touch, they are quite cold. In addition, on such a floor you can slip at any time, and therefore in the bathroom you should use an additional rug for your safety.
Linoleum – the cheapest flooring. Today there are a lot of all kinds of linoleum colors. It is worth focusing on the fact that the installation of linoleum is unusually simple. Linoleum is simply creeping, because it just needs to be well attached with a plinth.
Linoleum is the same floor covering that it is very easy to wash, because this material is not afraid of water. The minus of this material is only that the material is not an environmentally friendly material.
Laminate – these are boards covered with ordinary laminated murals. This material most often has many options for drawing, has many colors. Installation of the laminate, unfortunately, is not easy, in comparison with the installation of linoleum. Among other things, before laying the laminate, you must first prepare the floor.
It is worth focusing on the fact that the laminate is the most popular material that is used in the repair of the floor. The main drawback of the laminate is that it is very afraid of water.
If a lot of water gets into the seam between the floorboards, then there is a probability that the coating will swell. Damaged boards in this case are subject to replacement. It is worth noting in this case that the floor made of laminate must be washed very carefully, with a small amount of water. Do not put a laminate into the kitchen or in the bathroom.
