Laminate Wood Flooring
True hard wood floorings always look elegant and lend a timeless appeal to your San Francisco, California area home. However they are more prone to dents and scratches. If you can afford the hefty price tag and the maintenance expenses that will crop up in the years ahead, hard wood floors like oak and maple are excellent choices for you. There is also the question of maintenance and you have to be careful about water damage etc. A laminates floor on the other hand offers all the looks of wood that you desire, and none of the maintenance hassles. A laminated wood floor looks as close to hard wood as possible, but does not stain, dent, or show other signs of damage.
An entry level laminated floor will take low to moderate traffic with no problem at all. If you have a high traffic area that you want a wood floor for, consider a thicker core. Laminate floors come with a core thickness of 6 mm to 12 mm. A thicker core will not swell due to excessive moisture, and will not buckle or bend out of shape when walked on. This resistance to moisture makes laminated floors perfect for areas like bathrooms and kitchens, where the potential for water damage is high.
Hardwood flooring is undoubtedly matchless -- but it's also expensive and can be hard to care for deepening on the species of wood used. Combine the good looks of a hard wood floor with ease of maintenance and affordability that's unlike other wood floors. Laminated wood floors are the right choice if you want a versatile looking floor that's affordable.
