Alternative Wood Flooring
Alternative Wood Flooring is Elegant And Affordable
Natural hardwood floors are beautiful and add immeasurably to the ambience of a home, imbuing a space with a rich, earthy atmosphere. Their most notable disadvantage, however, is cost; natural woods are very expensive and more often than not, a homeowner finds that installing a solid hardwood floor is beyond the scope of the flooring budget. All is not lost though as you can consider alternative wood flooring as an excellent substitute.
One of the alternative wood flooring options is a laminate floor, where a very tough melamine cosmetic layer is bonded to a hard fibre core. This type of floor contains no real hardwood, but many designs can be selected that look just like genuine hardwood. A very exciting new flooring alternative is Woodmark, a Belgotex vinyl flooring solution that is both beautiful and hardwearing. Now you can enjoy the warmth that wood provides – without the wood. Woodmark is a glossy, cushioned new vinyl that is particularly quiet and comfortable underfoot.
A large range of finishes and shades are offered, from the most dramatic browns to the whitewashed, pale ashes and anything in between. The protective wear layer is very tough and wear-resistant; its moisture-resistance also makes it particularly suitable for use in bathroom and kitchens, although this product has proven ideal for the entire home. The hygienic top layer is easy to clean with minimal use of detergents and it will maintain its beautiful appearance for many years.
Woodmark vinyl alternative wood flooring also meets the most stringent Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) emissions standards and, because no real wood is used, you can rest assured that you are kind to the planet while your need for a lovely wood-look floor is satisfied. What is more, Woodmark flooring is priced very similarly to laminate flooring, which is to say it is very affordable indeed. You will find this excellent flooring solution at Top Carpets and Floors today; we are also launching our exclusive Wood Design and Wood Concepts ranges soon.
