Quick-Step Impressive Soft Oak Grey Planks IM3558 Laminate Flooring

Flooring Type – Quick-Step Laminate

Quick-Step laminate flooring is extremely versatile and durable, making it the perfect choice for most rooms in your home. It consists of four different layers built around a glued High Density Fibre) HDF board. Laminate flooring is very cost effective and is also underfloor heating compatible.

 

Finish – Transparent, wear-resistant overlay

Scratch Guard top layer provides protection from stains, dirt and scratches, making maintenance easy. Quick-Step’s ultra-resistant layer makes their laminate flooring up to ten times more resistant to micro scratches.

 

Fit – Uniclic

A click fitting system means that the boards can simply be clicked together to provide straight forward installation.  The planks of flooring have interlocking joints which have been machined onto the edge. These joints click and lock together to provide a tight and secure fit without the need for nails or glue. The improved drop-down technology provides extra strength due to the vertical and horizontal locking.

 

Installation method – Float over an underlay (Click)

Floating a floor over an underlay means the planks of flooring are attached together by the click fitting system, but they are not fixed directly down to the subfloor; instead they float over a layer of underlay. This method of installation is compatible with underfloor heating.

 

Acclimatisation

Quick-Step Laminate needs 2 days to acclimatise to its surroundings before it can be installed. It should be left in the room where it is going to be installed, which should be dry (no new drying plaster or concrete) and heated to between 18 to 30°.

 

Maintenance & Aftercare

Quick-Step Laminate flooring is easy to look after and maintain. Simply sweep with a soft bristle brush to remove any dirt or dust, and then clean on a weekly basis (more often if needed). To prevent any unwanted dents or damage to your hardwood, remember to remove outdoor footwear, use felt protector pads on the bottom of furniture and never drag heavy or sharp object across the floor. This will ensure that you floor keeps looking at its best for as long as possible.
