I'm considering fitting my living room with a laminate floor.
Please share your knowledge and experienced with this ?
Who are the main suppliers in Nairobi ?

comes out very nicely and much warmer than tiles

just need to be careful - your furniture should be 'cushioned' at the bottom to avoid scratches on the laminate when moving furniture. you can buy the cushioning bits (i forget the proper name) in the bigger supermarkets. compare prices between kijabe street, downtown and tile and carpet - dont assume.

Good question.
I think Laminate is a bit more expensive? Also, what is the difference between Pergo and Laminate flooring?
Others can confirm. But nothing beats the classy look of a mahogany parquet floor. Use of any other wood (eg blackwood, mvule, blue gum etc) will just be a waste because they do not look as classy.

-Laminate don’t require varnish etc
-Laminate more expensive
-if you get the level wrong on laminate, you will hear creaking
-I personally think it gives a room a more modern finish than parquet.
-Water damage not an issue

I think I am beginning to get sold on Laminate. Pergo Laminate to be specific.
Definitely gives the floor a more stylish modern, up to date look and you can customize to any color you want.
