I've laid Karndean flooring in two bathrooms now.



Can you tell me more about this flooring.
I have been looking at Amtico, but at £130 m2 and you have to have
supply
& fit it's pricey.

Hello Rick,

A wealth of info is available on their website at www.karndean.co.uk. They
also have quite comprehensive displays at local stockists so you can get an
idea of the likely result.

I believe the product is really aimed at the supply and fit market, but I
have had no problems obtaining supplies from my local stockist, also the
adhesive, etc. If you read the info on the website you can find out all
about the surface preparation required, and also the protective coating that
you are supposed to apply the the finished floor. There is also a special
cleaning product although we haven't actually used this and have experienced
no problems over a couple of years.

Pricewise it is FAR cheaper than the £130 that you mention. Check with your
local supplier. They do various ranges from a "domestic" one up to one
suitable for commercial installations. The price varies accordingly. One
thing I was wary of on the more luxurious range is that the edges are
"bevelled" rather than flat - this wouldn't have worked for the "diamond"
pattern that I did.

Regards,

Simon.
