Laminate, like building materials, has proven himself well in the construction market. It is currently universally used to finish the flooring. Now there are a huge number of laminate models that differ in their operational characteristics.
Like any material, the laminate has a number of its plus and minuses. The pluses can be safely attributed to:
– Price. The price of the laminate, as building materials, is quite low, which makes it affordable for any class of the population;
– Pergo laminate, like other types of laminate, is characterized by a rather high strength compared to the parquet board or linoleum;
– Has the rich color scheme of all flooring, which can come up with absolutely any interior.
The minuses include the following:
-The laminate is afraid of moisture, and when interacting with it, it quickly swells and becomes unusable;
-Also, this floor covering does not tolerate the irregularities of the floor. According to the standards, the deviation that may be allowed should not exceed 2 mm;
-The structure of the laminate absolutely does not contain wood. It is absent both on the external coating and on the average coating of the laminate board.
The conclusion can be drawn by the following that when buying a particular type of laminate, you must fully make sure that this flooring is suitable for you. Since choosing not what you like, your costs can increase pretty much. Be economical.
