Vinyl flooring

Vinyl is a fully synthetic floor made from layers of PVC and fibreglass.

Like LVT flooring, it’s also easy to install, often waterproof, and designed to replicate more expensive floor styles.

Carpet pile and texture can be loop or cut. Cut piles, where loops are cut. Velvet, smooth carpets look beautiful and are very formal, they show footprints and vacuum tracks. Saxony use different fiber finishes and are less formal and more versatile than velvets. Textured yarn have a different twist that hides footprints and give a more casual feel.

Hardwood floors add beauty and value wherever they are installed. Ask any real estate professional what homebuyers are looking for in a floor. Did anyone not say hardwood? With care, solid hardwood floors can last a lifetime. When the time comes that an older hardwood floor is looking scruffy, it can be buffed up to remove scratches and brighten the finish. If a more comprehensive approach is needed, the floor can be sanded, stained and refinished for a fraction of the cost of replacing it.

In addition to aesthetics, carpet stair runners also offer practical benefits. They can reduce the risk of slipping on the stairs by providing traction and improving grip. The cushioning effect of the carpet runner can also help absorb impact and reduce noise levels, making the stairs quieter to walk on. Overall, a carpet stair runner serves both functional and decorative purposes, transforming the look of the staircase while providing added comfort and safety.
