Summertime is quickly creeping up on us which means that everyone is getting ready for some fun in the sun.

Sunshine, the beach, ice cream and …… wasps.

Okay so maybe not everything about summer is fantastic, even so taking advantage of the summer is a must for everyone from taking trips with family to getting your tan on.

Even the time you spend at home can benefit from the feeling of summer.

Your probably sat there thinking ‘why would I want to make my home better during summer, I want to be out in the sun’.

Yet the summer sun provides endless opportunities to improve your home design. This is because summer provides more natural light than at any point in the year. This means that you can take advantage of the sunshine peering through your window, creating a vibrant and uplifting atmosphere for the whole family.

This can be done through various means, from installing fresh cream curtains to plush white rugs all allowing light to bounce around and envelop the room.

Some of you may even take this one step further and redecorate to take advantage of the summer sun. Now if wallpapering does not seem like your idea of summer fun, do not worry as there is another way - Laminate wood flooring.

This may seem like an alarming method, especially given that summer only lasts 3 months, yet the longstanding benefits of laminate flooring are completely worth it.

Let’s look at summer first however. Laminate flooring features a multi-layer design, featuring a durable central layer with a printed layer and transparent layer at the top.

This allows greater flexibility in terms of design, offering styles that sometimes cannot even be replicated by natural hardwood floors.

This means you can add a whole new level of vibrance to your room design. One fantastic option would be white laminate flooring. This features a distinctive wood grain style wrapped up in a vibrant white finish, allowing light to flow seamlessly throughout the room.

However for those of you looking at a more authentic wood feel, the light oak laminate flooring is a fantastic alternative. Offering the unmatched charm and charisma of oak wood flooring in an easy to install and user-friendly package.

On the topic of user friendliness, laminate also offers fantastic benefits for everyday home life.

For instance, going down to the park with your dog is a fantastic way to enjoy the summer sun. However, dogs tend to get a little excitable when it’s time for walkies, therefore claws may be screeching across your floor, causing equal screeching from yourself thinking of the damage.

Thankfully oak laminate flooring is incredibly scratch resistant thanks tothe durable clear top layer.

Another benefit is how easy to clean laminate is

compared to other wood floors, especially in summer with all the trips to the beach, the park and even just being out in the yard. Mercifully muddy shoes and paw prints only require a quick mop to remove, allowing you to easily keep your laminate floor in top showroom condition for longer.
