Re: (AC) Wear rating on Allure Aspen or Laneway Vinyl planksFlooring & Floor Covering

Jul 27, 2012 6:16 pm

They don't have AC ratings as they are PVC floors, not laminate floors. The Allure Lock is a .5mm Commercial Heavy Duty click plank and can be used immediately. It has a lifetime wear warranty when installed in a residential situation. Can't speak for the Laneway one, as we don't sell it so we canno...

I guess I should rephrase the question ... does Vinyl have an (AC ) wearing equivilant test/standard ?? or do I assume that it is PVC i'll be in my next life before it wears out ? This author has been in the industry for 20 years and has never once heard of a wear issue on PVC flooring. In America,...

The drop lock system on the Vintage laminate range is perfect for DIY installs and with an AC4 rating and a lifetime wear warranty, it will last you as long as you need it to ! Priced at $39m2, it will come in under budget too.

Re: Advice on reasonable prices for vinyl and bamboo floorinFlooring & Floor Covering

Jun 12, 2012 6:32 pm

You could look at Allure Lock. It's a commercial grade PVC floating floor with the licensed unilin clicking system. Because it has a ceramic bead coating on top of a commercial .5 wear layer, it will withstand household wear and tear very well. As you can apply a simple polish on top with a mop, you...

What does wear layer mean? The thickness of the actual wear layer that protects you from damaging the decor layer (or the picture) that you are walking on :)

Thanks. What underlay would you recommend? Well of its going on a concrete subfloor it doesn't require any, just a dry(ish) subfloor and a reasonably level one (3mm per meter max variation). On timber or particle board subfloors, it's the same although in the case of the concrete floor, where you c...

Removing the old will cost between $4400 and $7700, depending on who does it (that's the least expensive and most expensive we have heard of .... The two extremes if you like)......Whilst we do not do it, most of our flooring franchisees will be able to assist you with a contact in your local area. ...

7 months later...

Re: Anyone have a sisal/wool blend rug?Flooring & Floor Covering

May 04, 2012 8:25 pm

Michelle is right. You would be better to consider a wool rug from someone like The Rug Collection in their Cross Weave range as it gives you a similar look. http://www.therugcollection.com.au They are a wholesaler, not a retailer, but can direct you to a retailer in your local area. Cross Weave rug...

Is timber or bamboo the preferred floor these days ?Flooring & Floor Covering

Mar 24, 2012 7:12 am

Bamboo sales are through the roof around Australia. Cannot get enough stock to satisfy the demand... Is this because it is seen to be better than timber in terms of hardness and perhaps the Eco story with it ? Or does it come down to price and the fact it tends to be less expensive ? If you could bu...
