What should I be looking for when buying laminate hallway flooring?
When choosing your ideal hallway laminate flooring, consider factors like your interior style, and whether you prefer warm or cool-toned wood designs. We stock warm beige laminate and modern grey laminate, so the choice is yours. It’s also a great opportunity to consider timeless laminate herringbone designs.
Can hallway laminate flooring withstand heavy foot traffic?
Absolutely! Laminate flooring is made from layers of High-Density Fibreboard (HDF), making it suitable for areas of the home with heavy foot traffic. We also stock sturdy hardwearing laminate, which is reinforced for extra durability.
How can you protect hallway laminate from scratches?
Laminate flooring is highly durable and scratch resistant, but it helps to protect your floors by using pads on any furniture feet to avoid unnecessary damage. It’s also extremely easy to clean. A quick sweep and the occasional wipe with a barely damp cloth or mop is all you need.
What underlay works best for hallway laminate flooring?
The right underlay for your hallway laminate flooring depends on the product and the purpose of the space. Do you need extra sound absorption for somewhere like an upstairs hallway? Likewise, it can also depend on the type of subfloor, as you’ll need a damp-proof membrane to install laminate over concrete. Our guide to the best underlay for laminate flooring can help direct you.
How much does it cost to laminate a hallway?
Budgeting to install laminate flooring for your hallway depends on various factors, including the cost of the product, the size of the hallway and the installation method.
