What to choose first when choosing a floor? How to choose when buying flooring?

I saw a post on the first floor network, mainly talking about some issues that should be paid attention to when buying flooring, I hope it will help you.

First: the lighting conditions of the room.

The lighting conditions of the living room limit the range of floor colors. Rooms with good natural light can be selected from a wide range of sizes and shades. For rooms with lower floors and insufficient lighting, it is necessary to pay attention to the selection of ground materials with higher brightness and suitable colors, and avoid using darker materials as much as possible.

The decoration, but most of the rookies of home decoration do not know much about what kind of floor is more with the country style, how to match the Chinese style, and under the premise that the decoration style has been decided, what kind of tricks are there in the choice of flooring?

Second: the color matching of the ground.

The color of the ground should set off the color of the furniture, and the ground decoration belongs to the long-term decoration, in general, it will not be replaced often, so many factors should be considered when choosing. Neutral colors have always been the dominant color, but with the right combination, both dark and light colors can achieve the desired effect. In general, the following aspects should be noted.

Third: the size of the house.

Colors affect the visual effect of people, warm tones are expanded colors, and cool colors are shrinking colors. Therefore, the floor of a small room should choose a cool color with dark tones, or a simple and bright floor, so that people feel that the area is expanded. Warm, colourful flooring can make the space feel cramped and oppressive.

In addition, in the choice of color, you should tend to small texture or straight grain effect, and avoid large and chaotic patterns.

For those who prefer white flooring, it is recommended to use off-white flooring.

Nowadays, many families prefer to use white flooring and want to have a peaceful home atmosphere. It is recommended to use a lighter color such as gray and white, which is easy to give people a sense of tranquility and does not cause "top-heavy" with heavy walls and light floors.

Yellow floors are better than green walls.

Some families like to use a slightly yellow floor, and the walls use the "adjacent color" rule, so you can choose a green next to the yellow to create a very warm atmosphere.

Brown floors should be pink and ivory.

Dark-toned floors are very appealing and expressive, with strong personalities, such as the reddish floor, which gives a strong sense of color in itself, and if you paint the walls with strong paint, it will look out of harmony. But choose an ivory with a pink hue to create a sense of unity with the black brown floor.

Dark brown flooring is best paired with cashbeige.

Some homeowners are willing to pair white walls with dark brown flooring, which can make the floor appear dark. If you choose the same brown color as the color of cashbeige for the walls, the color of the walls and floors will be easier to access, and the space will appear larger. The style is simple, fresh and elegant.

You can log in to the first floor network to see for yourself.

The first thing to consider when choosing the floor is to consider your own needs, Chen Ge decoration to give you the advice is: according to your family members to choose that type of floor, and then according to the style to see the match, as for the brand, the choice of the first and second line brands are almost the same, I hope Shanghai Chen Ge can help you.

When many people are decorating their new home, most people will choose wooden flooring for installation, there are many types of flooring, there are many patterns, and it looks good with it. However, the selection of the floor is also particular, and the service life of the selected bad is very short. So how should you choose when buying flooring?

01 When buying flooring, you can first look at the overall texture of the floor, wipe it with water on the solid wood floor that has not yet been painted, and you can see the texture of the template.

02 When buying flooring, you can also weigh the weight of a single plank, because the density of a good plank is relatively high, so the weight of a single plank is relatively heavy, and the strength and hardness of a single plank are relatively large.

03 When buying flooring, you can also smell the smell of the floor, good wood itself has a very fragrant smell, and the fragrance is also more obvious after making the floor. Of course, if the floor is of inferior quality, the smell will be very pungent.

04 When buying flooring, you can measure the thickness of the board, the most common measurement method is to use a dollar coin to measure, the thickness of a good template is basically in 1 word, so that the thickness of the board is about 18mm, which is also the standard thickness.

05 When buying flooring, you can also measure the "three measurements" of the board, many people don't know what it means, in fact, the three measurements of the board is its length, width and thickness, and the ratio of a good board is 125:910:18, which is the best ratio of a single plank, which can ensure the stability of performance and is not easy to deform.

06 When purchasing flooring, you can take a look at the tongue and groove of the plank, the so-called tongue and groove of the plank is actually a joint interface between the planks, because the tongue and groove of the good plank are fully automated to slot, so they are relatively flat, so it is easier to install.

07 When buying flooring, you can take a look at the lacquer surface of the board, because after the good board is painted, the paint gloss on the veneer looks relatively round, and there is no obvious change from any point of view.

08 When buying flooring, you can also touch the overall texture of the board, the elasticity of the board should be relatively moderate, and the surface is relatively smooth and delicate, so it is more comfortable to step on. Inferior wood boards are rough if they are not molded.

Advantages: durable, aging resistance, long life, good stability, no cracking, no warping, waterproof, mildew-proof, anti-corrosion, insect-proof, antibacterial, high temperature resistance. Cons:

The texture is brittle, the toughness is not enough, the impact resistance is not strong, and the external temperature difference is large, which is easy to expand and shrink deformation. Advantages: anti-corrosion, anti-mildew, anti-moth, anti-termite attack, waterproof, good permeability, strong anti-erosion, can meet various design requirements.

Disadvantages: preservatives need to be added to make preservative wood, slight chemical odor, uneven color, large color difference and dull. Pros:

Anti-corrosion, anti-biological invasion, low moisture content, not easy to absorb water, good thermal insulation performance, consistent color, easy to paint, no special odor, insect-insect-resistant, anti-deformation and cracking, high temperature resistance. Disadvantages: The color is darker, not as bright and bright as other floors, more brittle, and the touch is not as soft and comfortable as other floors.

Which kind of ground material is the best to lay on the ground, we talk a lot on the Internet, Yaguang Ya decoration believes that customers in the living room to choose the floor material from the personal practical problems, specific problems specific analysis, they think it is suitable for their own re-adoption.

Decide in terms of spending power.

If your decoration budget is high, and the cost of floor materials is more than 200 square meters, solid wood flooring is preferred.

If your decoration budget is not high, the cost of floor materials is less than 200 square meters, and the imitation parquet is preferred.

It is determined by the age of the consumer.

For middle-aged and elderly families, the floor of the living room is suitable for paving solid wood flooring, which can adjust the temperature, warm in winter and cool in summer, comfortable feet and gorgeous. The living room of the youth family is suitable for paving antique imitation parquet flooring and imitation parquet flooring. Because compared with menstrual families, one is limited economic ability, and the other is that the child is small, the driving of the stroller, the use of toys, the ground material requires wear-resistant and anti-rubbing.

The third is that the imitation parquet has many personalized colors, which are suitable for young people.

Decide from the aspect of product environmental protection.

From the perspective of environmental protection, solid wood flooring is the first choice, followed by imitation solid wood flooring. Because it is undeniable that hardwood flooring is the most environmentally friendly material for floor decoration.

Decide from the aspect of product maintenance.

If you are diligent enough and love to clean, you choose solid wood flooring. If you want to save trouble and make the floor easy to take care of, you choose imitation parquet.

Decide from the aspect of underfloor heating.

If your floor is underfloor heating, the only option is parquet. At present, some businesses claim that solid wood flooring can also be used for floor heating, which is irresponsible, and the current process cannot reach this level. If the imitation solid wood floor is used for floor heating, the thermal conductivity is poor.

Decide from the geographical aspect.

In China, in general, the southern region is more suitable for the paving of solid wood floors. The weather in the south is more humid, the humidity is heavier, and it is not suitable for laminate flooring.

The north is just the opposite, adapting to any kind of flooring, but laminate flooring is cost-effective, so northern home furnishings are mainly laminate flooring. The dry solid wood floor in the north is easy to crack, pay attention to cracking in the selection of materials!

Laminate flooring purchase:

Before purchasing, you must first know the level, orientation and area of your residence, and it is best to draw a floor plan for overall planning, specifically allocate the use functions of each room, and then choose the floor according to local conditions; Generally speaking, young people are busy with work and study, so it is impossible to be completely consistent with the requirements of the elderly and children. It is also necessary to consider the performance of the floor, whether it is temporary or long-term, and whether it will cause operation and damage to the surrounding buildings during the paving construction; Finally, you should also consider your own financial ability and budget for decoration costs.
