The most critical step is subfloor preparation. Floating laminate flooring requires a subfloor with a maximum deviation of 3 mm over a 2-metre straightedge. If the subfloor has greater deviations, it must be levelled with self-levelling mortar before starting. Without this levelling, the tongue-and-groove joints progressively separate, and visible gaps appear between boards after a few months of use. Solid wood parquet is the traditional option. Each board is 100 percent solid natural wood, typically oak, ash, or walnut. Much more expensive to buy and install, but it gives unique character to the room because each board has a distinct natural grain. Its great advantage is indefinite durability. If it wears out or gets damaged, it can be sanded and re-varnished multiple times throughout its life. This is what was used in old high-end flats and what we recommend for renovations of premium homes where the budget allows. For areas of very intensive use (entrances, hallways, continuously trafficked staircases), we recommend not using floating laminate flooring because its concentrated intensive use deteriorates the top layer faster than in residential areas. For these areas, porcelain stoneware or natural stone last much longer.

We check flatness, humidity, and subfloor level before proposing a type of flooring. Self-levelling mortar or levelling sheet, acoustic underlay, and moisture barrier. When you repaint with a good quality white plastic paint and two coats, the room changes radically, and the effect goes beyond pure aesthetics. The sense of spaciousness increases. Light reflects better off the walls, so you need less artificial lighting. Furniture appears cleaner by contrast. And living in a house with fresh paint feels different from living in one that needs a refresh. It's a modest investment with a disproportionate impact on daily well-being.

Flooring with official manufacturer's warranty (10-25 years) plus our installation coverage. The choice between different types of wood or wood-effect flooring depends on three main factors: budget, intended use, and desired aesthetic. AC4 laminate floating flooring, which is our most popular seller today, combines excellent value for money with resistance to intensive use. It consists of a top melamine layer with a realistic wood effect (high durability against abrasion), a high-density fibreboard core, and a balancing bottom layer. The top layer has an AC4 classification (suitable for intensive domestic use or moderate commercial use) and withstands 25,000 abrasive cycles without visible wear. For standard domestic use, it lasts 15-25 years maintaining a good appearance. Its drawback is that although visually very realistic, it is not natural wood and cannot be sanded and re-varnished if damaged at any point. 10-15 years official manufacturer's warranty on standard AC4 floating floors. 25 years on premium ranges. Plus 30 days of our coverage on installation.
