Which is the best type of flooring?

The knowledgeable and experienced team at your local Carpet Court store can help you to determine whether authentic timber flooring, contemporary or traditional carpet, or engineered flooring such as vinyl planks, hybrid flooring or laminate flooring will be the perfect choice for you.

When choosing the best type of floor covering you should consider your property’s location and environment, your budget of course, and also your lifestyle. Consider such things as the amount and type of foot traffic, how much direct sunlight your floors receive and what sort of wear and tear they will be subject to.

Trending synthetic carpets are manufactured to be as soft and luxurious as pure wool, but with innovative technology creating remarkable stain, soil and fade resistance. These carpets are a wonderful choice for family homes with children, whereas timeless wool carpets add a sophisticated ambience to executive homes.

Resilient, durable and waterproof hybrid flooring is a fantastic choice for modern homes with seamless flow throughout the living and wet areas. In the bedrooms and formal living spaces plush floor rugs can be used to soften the room and create a cosy vibe.

Laminate or vinyl plank flooring are affordable ways to create the luxe timber look with easy-care features and are popular choices for modern family homes and investment properties.

In commercial environments the best type of floor is durable, highly resilient and easy to maintain, with popular choices being vinyl flooring and commercial grade carpet.

Is vinyl flooring waterproof?

Vinyl flooring is available in two forms – vinyl planks and vinyl sheets. Luxury vinyl plank flooring is an affordable way to recreate the luxe look of authentic timber using stylish woodgrain textures and tones.

While generally not completely waterproof, vinyl’s water resistance can depend on the engineering used to manufacture the vinyl products. To determine whether the vinyl flooring you are considering is suitable for wet areas you should speak with the expert staff at your local Carpet Court store.
