Cornwall Karndean Flooring Suppliers offer great advice on choosing Karndean flooring over Hardwood Flooring.
Made from an exceptionally durable form of customised vinyl, Karndean flooring replicates all the beauty of natural flooring materials with none of the practical drawbacks.
Whilst being virtually indistinguishable from the materials which inspire our designs, Karndean offers significant advantages in terms of design capability, maintenance and cost.
The first thing about a Karndean floor that really grabes your attention is that it looks and feels just like the real thing. Whether you choose a wood, slate or marble effect floor, your friends and family will never know the difference. Unless, of course, you tell them so!
Taking the beauty and practicality of a Karndean floor into consideration, you may be surprised at just how affordable our products can be. |

The Advantages & Disadvantages of Karndean Vs Hardwood Floors
Hardwood floors can be scratched, but scratches are pretty simple to repair. However, if a Karndean floor is scratched or tears, it is not so easily repaired.
Most stained wood floors will change colour over time. Unlike Karndean, though, wood floors can always be restored to their original beauty. |

On the other hand, Karndean floors never need waxing or polishing. Both hardwood floors and Karndean floors can be effected by excessive moisture, but typically it is only Karndean flooring that can really hold up to being put in a kitchen or bathroom.
Rooms that get a lot of moisture are not ideal for hardwoods although a Karndean floor perfect.
Karndean's other strong point is that it allows your creativity to flow without being restricted by location. With the possibility of inlaid patterns, borders, "chequerboard" effects, feature strips and literally hundreds of designs, you're likely to be spoilt for choice.
Ultimately, the decision to go with hardwood floors or Karndean flooring is best made by examining the best product for your personal needs.
