Check out our practical and inspiring tips and tricks to design your very own backyard lounge area.

Following a few late snowstorms, spring (finally!) seems to be knocking at our doors. For a lot of us, the arrival of warmer weather almost always means setting up our deck, patio, balcony, or whatever outdoor space we may have. Whether you just recently moved into a new home or have been living in the same house for years, spring means enjoying the outdoors. Hence your outdoor space automatically turns into an extension of your home, making for a second living room or lounge area.

List of Good & Certified Flooring Contractors

<h3 style="color:#737672;font-size:24px;font-weight:bold;text-align:left;">Would you like to find out more information in order to be better prepared for your flooring renovation project?</h3>

Flooring is often one of the top priorities of people in terms of renovation because it fulfills both practical and aesthetical purposes. It also suffers a lot of wear over time, so even if your rooms are equipped with resistant flooring, at a certain moment, the surfaces may need to be refreshed.

There is a wide variety of floor materials, suitable for all tastes and budgets. Here are some examples of the most common materials:

<ul>
	<li>Hardwood;</li>
	<li>Laminate;</li>
	<li>Floating floor;</li>
	<li>Ceramics;</li>
	<li>Linoleum;</li>
	<li>Vinyl;</li>
	<li>Natural stone.</li>
</ul>

Some flooring materials are more suitable for humid rooms, high traffic areas, or rooms where occupants want a certain level of comfort.

<h3 style="color:#737672;font-size:24px;font-weight:bold;text-align:left;">Why hire a pro for a flooring installation or renovation project?</h3>

Techniques used to install or restore flooring materials vary according to the types of materials. However, one thing is true in all cases: nothing replaces the expertise of flooring specialists! To make sure that your floor is well installed or that renovations are done properly, it is important to entrust the task to experts.

Are you thinking about carrying out the installation yourself? If a problem occurs, you will have to start from the beginning. Thus, the savings will become nonexistent.

<h4 style="color:#003d69;font-size:24px;font-weight:bold;text-align:left;">Hoping not to spend your summer vacation doing renovations?</h4>

Floor renovation is a project that can very well take place during the winter. Enjoy the low season for better prices on labour and materials!
