Laminate is an excellent coating for apartments. He is very resistant to wear, beautiful and easy to lay. Has a wide variety of drawings and a huge color scheme. He is also strong enough, and it is easy to care for him. When choosing, it is necessary to take into account the fact that for a room with large cross -country ability, it is necessary to choose a laminate with a thickness of about 1 centimeter.
After buying a laminate, it must be left at room temperature for a day, so that it takes the temperature of the room. Before starting work, you need to remove the old coating, linoleum or old boards from the floor. Then clean the surface of construction debris and proceed to the preparation of the floor for further work. Now it is necessary to put the substrate on the floor so that the surface is perfectly flat, it also serves as absorption of noise and waterproofing. They need to lay them out, and the seams are stuck with a masking tape. Laying must be done in one row and start from the corner of the room. It is necessary to join the boards carefully and perfectly evenly, since the further result depends on the first row. It must be remembered that the laminate on each side should not reach the wall at least 8 millimeters. It is better if the gap is larger, since large gaps can always be hidden with a plinth.
