Pergo Flooring Instead Of Hardwood?
Pergo flooring provides a broad selection of laminate flooring, with an emphasis on reproducing the genuine feel of hardwood and tile.
With Pergo flooring, homeowners can rest assured with a floor that will both look great and last years.
Laminate flooring requires next to no maintenance, and will stay looking great for decades.
The latest Pergo flooring reproduces the graining, knotting, texture, and color of genuine hardwood.
Visitors will be hard pressed to know the difference between Pergo flooring and real hardwood or tile.
In addition to its great looking and lasting appeal, laminate flooring is incredibly simple to lay down.
With its interlocking tiles, Pergo flooring can be installed without professional help.
The tiles are manufactured with a groove that allows the tiles to interlock without any adhesives.
Provided a home installer has a tile cutting tool, installation should take very little effort.
Interlocking Pergo flooring is also friendlier to the environment, as it requires no toxic adhesives, without any of the harmful chemical adhesives that other floors possess.
Home installation is simple enough for anyone at least a little handy to accomplish, and can save thousands of dollars in professional installation fees.
Pergo flooring is safer and healthier without any of the chemicals seen in other flooring.
Once a Pergo floor is installed, it should last for several years. Worn out and damaged tiles can be easily replaced.
Laminate flooring is very resistant to water damage and abrasion.
A hardwood will crack and buckle when exposed to moisture over time. Cupping and crowning results from prolonged moisture exposure.
This moisture can come both from spills and from water that wicks up from the sub-floor, making prevention difficult.
Pergo flooring is superior to carpet as well, offering both durability and warmth that the former cannot.
Carpet can soak up water and stains, making it tough to maintain. Over time, carpet can also take on unpleasant odors that are hard to eliminate.
Laminate flooring will not absorb any of these same smells, remaining in great condition for many years.
Carpet, by contrast, will gradually wear down and become frayed and torn. A torn or frayed carpet must inevitably be replaced entirely, whereas laminate tiles can be individually fixed.
