The choice of floor covering.

To date, the market construction and repairs offer a large selection of floor coverings.

The most popular and sought after ones are:

- linoleum;

- laminate;

- plug;

- flooring and parquet;

- PVC tiles.

From the builder in my apartment on the floor has been laid linoleum, but I decided to change it. In the same place of residence was a bed linoleum, but would like something else.

When choosing flooring for home (for rooms and a kitchen), I decided to focus on the laminate and parquet. Very much like in the living room put a cork, but I do have pets, talking with the managers of stores specializing in cork, I decided to give it up. Covering a warm, soft, sound-proof, but quite short-lived. Despite the fact that my friends are happy with cork flooring, after 5 years it is better to change.

As a result, to choose between laminate and parquet. Here it should be noted that high-quality laminate worth almost as much as the flooring and of average quality.

Read reviews, talk to the manager, seeing and feeling the coverage in stores, I chose the floorboard for the following reasons:

1. Natural material.

2. Paul is always warm, which is important in the winter and if you have small children;

3. The good sound absorption and sound insulation in combination with a cork substrate;

4. Beautiful natural wood texture.

On his decision I have not regretted a single time. And I can add that on the floor of the floorboard is very pleasant to walk barefoot.

The disadvantages of such a floor are:

· The high cost of - the thicker the top layer of natural wood, the more expensive is the square meter of the board;

· Amortization - the top layer is sufficiently soft, and if it drop any heavy objects may remain dents;

· Special care. On the wooden floor should not stagnate any puddles or stains. If spilled water - you need to immediately remove it, the same thing with patches of products (if the floor in the kitchen) or paints, markers (if the floor in the nursery);

· Special detergents. No abrasives can not be used when washing, only water or a solution of a special detergent for parquet floor.
