There’s no shortage of flooring shops in downtown
Toronto, but it can be tricky to find one that offers the most sought after options
from the most popular brands. A lot of the shops out there seem to specialize
in one particular type of flooring, and the shops that do offer different types
of flooring materials rarely have enough stock to provide a decent glimpse of
what can be had. A lot of the legwork associated with upgrading your floors can
be eliminated simply by checking out the most experienced and well-stocked
flooring shop in town. Here is a brief list of a few of the most pursued
flooring materials that can be explored by choosing the right shop.
Carpet
In Canada, carpethas always had a special place in homes. It’s soft, reduces noise, pleasant to
walk on in the winter months, reasonably priced, and can even improve air
quality in a home. New carpet prevents dust, pollen, and other debris from
spreading throughout the home. Some studies have shown that new carpet can
improve conditions for those suffering from asthma. Carpet is also available in
both rolls and tiles in a shocking variety of colours, sizes, patterns, and
textures. No other product is as easy to fit into your home décor as carpet.
Engineered Hardwood
If you’re looking for the beauty of hardwood with improved
durability, engineered hardwood could be the choice for you. It’s made with a
real wood core, either solid or stacked, with a veneer surface. The surface can
be had in several different colours, finishes, and wood species. Engineered
hardwood flooring can be a more cost effective solution than traditional
hardwood and provides greater durability than laminate flooring. Unlike
hardwood, engineered hardwood flooring can be installed in basements without
the fear of damage often caused by temperature changes and humidity.
Cork Flooring
Corkis an interesting flooring option that has been growing in popularity in recent
years. It’s a natural product that adds great looks and has attributes that
make it different from any other flooring product. It’s naturally resistant to
mold, mildew, and insects, it’s flame retardant, and is unbelievably
comfortable to walk on. The flex that cork provides makes it all but impossible
to crack, and the dents left in other flooring materials caused by heavy furniture
spring back. When cork flooring is properly maintained, it’s not unusual for it
to last upwards of forty years.
While there are a lot of flooring shops in downtown Toronto,
not all of them are able to offer the best products. Carpet, engineered hardwood,
and cork flooring are a few of the finest flooring materials available in
Toronto, and can be easily explored by visiting the most reputable and
well-stocked flooring specialists in the GTA. Stop by or give them a call today
