Suffolk karndean imitation wood floor - can you tell the difference?

If you’re thinking of updating your flooring and you don't fancy laminate, or carpet, then Karndean may be what your after. It is a similar product to Amtico, but vastly cheaper. 

Karndean is made of a vinyl material that can come in a wood plank strip or a tile format. It comes in different styles and variations for all manner of elegance or flair. It imitates natural materials such as stone, slate, marble, glass or wood. It is extremely hard wearing, so much so that it comes with a guarantee of 12 to 15 years. However Karndean flooring from our suffolk flooring contractor doesn’t have any of the drawbacks of natural flooring. Karndean is a lot warmer underfoot than natural stone but it gives the same natural effect.

It is also a great deal quieter, if you drop anything on Karndean there is no unpleasant clattering noise like on real wood. The slate and stone appearance are so convincing you would never know it’s not the real thing until you touch the tiles.

Karndean flooring from Ipswich won’t chip or crack and can easily be cleaned with a vacuum or a damp cloth. It's so easy to keep clean and bacteria free that it is the ideal choice for families.

With so many options you can personalise your floor exactly how you want it. There are borders or wood trims or a great range of colours available.

Karndean unfortunately needs to be fitted by a specialist, our Suffolk flooring specialists above offer a great service. If you have a wooden floor, ply wood will need to be laid before the Karndean to give a flawless finish, or if you have a concrete floor it will need to be levelled. An Ipswich floor fitter will use a special adhesive that heat seals the floor so that it stays completely even.

Made from an extremely robust form of adapted vinyl, Karndean flooring copies all the splendour of natural flooring but with none of the disadvantages. While being almost impossible to tell apart from the materials which they are based on, Suffolk Karndean flooring experts offer considerable advantages on design potential, upkeep and costs.

One of the best things about Karndean is that it can be laid in any room in the house, even rooms where dramatic temperature changes are likely to occur, like conservatories. Karndean can also be fitted over floors with under floor heating.
