Prices for building materials have probably never been encouraging, so it wouldn’t hurt anyone to learn how to do repairs without making a gaping hole in their wallet.

Today we'll talk about laminate: we hope these tips will be useful to you.

So, let's start with the material class.

Expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, does not recommend using class 33 or 34 laminate for the entire apartment.

It should be placed only in the most critical areas with heavy traffic – for example, in the hallway or kitchen.

If we are talking about a bedroom, then class 31 or 32 will do just fine – under light load conditions, its service life will be more than 10 years.

If you want to extend the “life” of your laminate, avoid purchasing flooring with bright and contrasting patterns – on cheap laminate they will soon wear off.

Instead, choose laminate with a wood grain pattern – you won’t notice any signs of wear for years to come.
