Laminate 
Laminate flooring helps deliver an upscale appearance with the characteristics of real wood and comes in many styles and colors to suite your design needs.
The Handy Chap can help you choose the correct laminate flooring for your area.
Unlike hardwood, laminate flooring will not fade, stain, dent and are much more scratch and water resistant then hardwood. There are many levels of laminate starting with entry level all the way to commercial duty. Choosing the right level will insure many years of satisfaction. Laminate floors come with cores ranging from 6mm up to 12mm. A thicker core is more stable, less vulnerable to buckling and will sound more like real hardwood when walked on. Good quality cores are treated with water repellent chemicals, and resist swelling due to excessive moisture. This is very important especially when considering placing laminate wood flooring in bathrooms and kitchen.
Buying the floors that suits your needs will save you money in the long run. This is not to say that every home requires a high end floor with an extensive warranty. Consider the amount of traffic as well as the amount of time you intend staying in your current home.
Remember, for laminate done right call The Handy Chap.
