What makes a floor pet-proof?
The best floors for pets are waterproof floors such as laminate or vinyl. Other qualities you need are wear resistance and soundproofing – elements that most quality laminates and vinyls possess.
Also, slip-free fast paw resistance is important. Whether chasing cats or dashing after dogs, you want to ensure that you and your pet are safe and slip-free. Choose slip-resistant or slip-proof floors, features usually combined with waterproofing. Make sure you choose both for the perfect floor for your pet.
For claw-proof and scratch-resistant floors, turn to laminate, vinyl or LVT ranges with enhanced scratch-resistant treatment layers. For example, Quick-Step uses “Scratch Guard” treatments to make its floors up to 10 times more scratch-resistant. Thus, they are hard-wearing, scratch-resistant and ideal for dogs, cats, and other pets’ paws and claws.
There are many waterproof and specially treated water-resistant wood-look floors ideal for homes with pets. COREtec and Lamett are two affordable choices that are designed with wood-like qualities in both look and feel. Plus with many laying design options and wood tone choices. Pet-proof luxury wood flooring, indeed!
Soundproof and noisy-paw resistance floors come from acoustic flooring designed to minimise unwanted noise. One great choice is Berry Alloc – they do both an affordable laminate and one of the most silent types of vinyl on the market. Faus is also a little-known laminate brand that is taking the pet market by storm – offering artisan ceramic designs or wood-like finishes. Great for silencing lively, heavy-footed animals or the pitter-patter of tiny paws but also to reduce anxiety and clatter for nervous pets. So, humans, felines and canines can always relax in silence, no matter who is running riot.
