The service life of wooden floors in an apartment does not exceed 7-10 years on average.
At the end of this period, partial or major repairs are inevitable.
Despite treatment with protective compounds, paints and enamels, wood absorbs and loses moisture even under favorable climatic conditions.
Which floor is better for a private house
Floors in a private house must be durable, not let in cold, and retain heat inside the room.
It is useful if they have thermal insulation and sound insulation properties.
Additional advantages include high resistance to high humidity.
What are the best floors
The best coatings are porcelain stoneware and ceramic tiles.
Both materials are resistant to moisture, easy to clean from any dirt, even traces of rubber shoes, and durable.
At the same time, they are aesthetically pleasing and provide great opportunities for interior decoration.
What is better to put laminate or linoleum on the floor
Laminate flooring takes longer to heat up and releases heat faster. Its properties can be improved if a heat-insulating layer is placed under the floor covering.
Linoleum absorbs sounds better, it is warmer and softer, it is not afraid of water, but traces of heavy furniture remain on it, and it can be scratched.
What are the most expensive floors
Of course, the most environmentally friendly, practical, but at the same time the most expensive floor covering is parquet.
As real estate agents say: the presence of parquet floors, among all types of flooring, is the key to a faster and more profitable home sale.
