What’s the right kitchen flooring for you?

Kitchen Flooring

Moduleo flooring

In most homes, the kitchen is the hub. It’s the place where people cook, eat, socialise and spend time talking.

Therefore it endures a lot of foot traffic and so any floor that you choose for this room needs to be durable and hardwearing. It also needs to look great, and add value to your home should you sell your property. Floors for the kitchen can be both hardwearing and beautiful as well as being good value for money. Here are some of the options if you are looking for a kitchen floor:

Laminate kitchen flooring

The great thing about laminate kitchen flooring is that it offers the appearance for solid wood or tiles, but it is much more cost effective. It’s easier to fit and is very durable. It also takes very little effort to maintain laminate flooring. With the advancements in manufacturing there are sound astoundingly realistic looking laminates on the market today – pop in and see our range of samples.

Real wood kitchen flooring

The great thing about real wood is that it adds value to your home, it’s beautiful and it’s natural. Many people simply want the real thing, no matter what synthetic materials are available. In fact, when you look at Zoopla and they value your property, one of the only questions you will be asked about the cosmetic appearance of your home is whether your have real wood floors. If the answer is yes, your home will be worth more. The great thing about real wood kitchen flooring is that you have many species to choose from as well as plank lengths, widths and a choice between lacquered and oiled.

Bamboo Kitchen Flooring

Many people overlook Bamboo kitchen flooring, but did you know it’s one of the hardest wood on the planet?in addition, it grows very fast making it an incredibly environmentally friendly choice. Given how hard this wood is, it’s perfect for heavy use in the kitchen. It’s available in many shades, but the lighter shades are very popular as they give the impression of space. Pop into our showroom for samples.

Luxury Vinyl Kitchen Flooring

We would say that because of its waterproof properties, luxury vinyl kitchen flooring is the ideal choice. If you are worried about wood marking, and want something that is ultra durable vinyl could be for you. We offer several leading brands including Amtico and Moduleo which are both available as a click system floor which means it can be laid easily and taken up should you have any leaks or need to change your units or perhaps change the layout of your kitchen. It’s easy to clean, hard wearing and you don’t have to worry about it fading or scratching. It’s also available in a wide range of finishes including light and dark stone, concrete, slate, tile or wood effect. Pop into our showroom at 176 Fenwick Road to see samples and get some comprehensive advice.

Absolutely Delighted with the Conduct and Quality of Work. My Wife and I decided to replace our Bedroom Carpet and lay down wooden flooring for our Hall. We noticed that there was a possible supplier for flooring at first floors shop on Fenwick Road. We met up with David and Graham and explained that we were looking for quality products for both Items. We were shown flooring possibilities from their extensive range of designs and thicknesses and soon found a product that we were interested in. We were delighted to find out that they had carpet selections at the back of the shop which surprised us; you could not appreciate the size of the place from the shop front! We chose a carpet that we thought met our specifications and were given a reasonable sized sample to take home to see how it would look in our room taking into account of our particular lighting conditions. First Floors sent out a guy to take measurements for floor, accessory fittings and carpet.
Being very happy with the proposition given to us and estimates of work completion dates and prices we went ahead with the order. Graham kept us updated with the schedule and I am happy to say that the work was carried out on time and was completed to a very high quality with which we were both delighted with.
I would be happy to reference this company for anyone who is interested in upgrading their floors or replacing carpets.

Good selection, service and fitting.We were able to take home some samples to select the carpet that was just right for our room. There was a delay in our furniture arriving and First Floors were very accommodating in putting our fitting date back to suit. The fitting went very well indeed - couldn’t have been easier.

Excellent service from First Floors. All staff including fitters have been helpful and gave a friendly professional service. My new stair carpet has been fitted very well and already received many complements

Excellent service with care. On our first visit to the showroom, David advised and helped us with our choice but never rushed us and gave us lots of confidence in making our final choice of engineered wooden flooring. Our new build home was delayed for a few months and during this time David and his team waited patiently with us until the flooring was able to be fitted! The fitting throughout our new house was more than excellent. The care and attention to detail was everything we could have hoped for, our thanks to the fitting team. We would have no hesitation in recommending First Floors, their professionalism and customer service was 100%.

Fantastic service. David gave me great advice on which flooring would be most suitable for my business premises. Within the week Steven came to fit the flooring and, as promised, was in and out in a day. Can’t recommend this local Company enough. Anna Smylie ZuZu Giffnock.

We recently purchased engineered oak flooring and carpets from First Floors. The customer service from David and team was exceptional. We had just moved home from overseas and bought a house with no floors so we did not have access to allow First Floors to measure. Theye allowed us to use our own measurements as we wanted the floors laid ASAP once we had the keys. The floor is beautiful and laid very professionally (thanks Steven). The carpets are also lovely and exactly what I wanted. The only thing I would change about the experience would be to have First Floors assess the house in advance. We have fire doors which were a problem the day the carpets were laid. This was not the issue of First Floors and it was resolved quickly. Thanks again David, we would highly recommend First Floors to anyone.

Another Great Job Done!!
Just had our third floor project in seven years completed by First Floors once again.
Great service from David and his showroom team from assisting in the selection of materials through to arranging the installation. Chris and his team worked tidily and efficiently on the hardwood flooring with great attention to detail. Gordon who fitted the stair carpet was very professional in his work and was able to resolve some problematic details to our entire satisfaction.
Would definitely recommend First Floors.

We recently had First Floors install laminate flooring in our lounge and hallway and are absolutely delighted with the final result! It has been finished to a high standard with great attention to detail.

Having had a rough idea of what we were looking for, David helped find the perfect flooring for both rooms.

We were booked in quickly and kept informed throughout the process.

We would definitely recommend and use again.
