With all the options available, it can be difficult to navigate. Here is an overview of the main types of flooring and their characteristics. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”17px”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

Hardwood flooring <\/b><\/h4>\n

Classic and timeless, hardwood adds warmth and elegance to any space. Durable, it can be sanded and varnished over the years. On the other hand, hardwood flooring is more sensitive to moisture and therefore requires more careful maintenance. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”17px”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

Engineered wood flooring<\/b><\/h4>\n

Designed to better withstand variations in temperature and humidity, engineered wood is a good compromise between the aesthetics of hardwood and the stability of a floating floor. It is particularly suitable for condos or houses with radiant heating. <\/span> <\/b>[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”17px”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

Floating floor <\/b><\/h4>\n

Very popular for its excellent value for money, the floating floor is simple to install and offers a nice variety of finishes. It resists daily wear well, but its lifespan is generally more limited than that of hardwood. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”17px”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

Vinyl flooring <\/b><\/h4>\n

Versatile and very resistant, vinyl flooring is appreciated for its comfort and its ability to perfectly imitate wood, stone or concrete. Waterproof and durable, it is suitable for kitchens as well as bathrooms or basements. It is also distinguished by its stability and simple maintenance. However, the quality can vary from one product to another, and a good preparation of the subfloor is essential for an optimal result. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”17px”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

Sheet vinyl flooring <\/b><\/h4>\n

More affordable, linoleum is an easy-to-install roll covering that\u2019s ideal for budget-friendly projects. It comes in a variety of patterns and quickly covers large areas. However, because it\u2019s thinner, it\u2019s more prone to marks, tears, and any imperfections in the existing floor. Its finish is generally less textured than modern vinyl, making it a practical option\u2014though less durable over time. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”17px”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n

Ceramics <\/b><\/h4>\n

Ideal for spaces prone to moisture, such as kitchens or bathrooms, ceramic stands out for its durability and resistance to stains. It also offers a wide variety of formats and finishes. However, it can be cold underfoot without underfloor heating and requires professional installation.

Polished concrete <\/b><\/h4>\n

Increasingly trendy, polished concrete offers a modern and minimalist look. Very durable, it requires special expertise in the installation and may require the installation of a radiant heater to improve comfort. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”17px”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n
