Renovated apartment - fill the floor and laying the flooring
Just a month ago, that is, at the end of September, it took the move to our new apartment. House building, was commissioned in February this year. A roughly from April to begin repair. The apartments were rented in the state of almost complete emptiness. plastic windows and glazed balcony have been inserted.
The floors were uneven concrete layer on which the batteries stretched two hoses with heating in isolation. Flooring required special formulation to their alignment. This service can provide the developer itself or just a small firm specializing in it. Usually, several apartments cooperate and make an order for the fill together. In this case, the service provider can make the price discount. This is beneficial to both parties. Repair firm on the appointed day, usually in the morning coming to the specified address, settling down near the entrance to a special machine, mixing and feed solution, and from the car to the right floor by the stairs pulling the sleeve, through which happens fill. Workers control the process and the desired coating height. Once everything is ready, the solution is left to dry for a day. Further, it is polished. For complete drying of the solution you need about a week.
The next step on the floor beautification to bring it into the living condition began laying porcelain tiles and laminate.
As well as an option for flooring linoleum improvement can be seen, the more modern technology manufacturers led him to such a high level that the quality linoleum practically indistinguishable from laminate. However, even at the price of a good laminate and linoleum are virtually identical. For the kitchen floor is better to choose between linoleum and tiles, as probably ingress of water and sticky or greasy liquids, and laminate flooring tends to absorb them. It is also worth considering that the floor coverings (if you want to combine several of their species) will converge at the junction. Therefore, their height should be the same. First, it is recommended to do laying floor tiles (porcelain), and in function of the resulting floor height choose linoleum or laminate and the substrate on it. For example, if the height of floors with tiles out of 8 mm, and the thickness of the laminate 4, the remaining 4 mm are obtained just at the expense of the substrate (which is different thicknesses).
