What is Karndean?
Karndean is a range of luxury vinyl flooring, available in a huge range of colours, textures and finishes. Karndean flooring allows you to embrace the natural flooring look but without the cost or the hassle: every vinyl flooring option is authentic, easy to install and durable, as well as luxurious.
Why choose Karndean?
The Karndean flooring range gives you the option of a wood or stone-look floor, without the expense and the inconvenience. Karndean vinyl flooring is designed to look truly authentic, with hundreds of different colours, textures and styles available. You'll find that Karndean floors are incredibly easy to maintain, needing only a mop and the Karndean cleaner - while they are also suitable for homes with an underfloor heating system.
The brand has designed its flooring ranges to be tough and durable, coping even with the heavy duty use of both commercial and retail environments. If the floor does become damaged, you'll be covered with Lifetime Guarantee*s accross all Karndean ranges. In addition, damage does not mean replacing the entire floor: as a tile-based system, it is quick and easy to replace individual tiles if needed.
Our range of Karndean flooring is available at unbeatable prices, offering you exceptional flooring options that are incredible value for money.
Karndean vs other flooring
Karndean Design Flooring offers a huge number of benefits over other flooring types, as detailed below:
Karndean vs. Laminate Flooring & Engineered Wood
Laminate flooring and engineered wood can often look unrealistic, unlike the Karndean alternative. These options can also warp due to moisture and temperature changes, and can become damaged due to water seeping through and spillage. Karndean flooring is not only water-resistant, but also keeps its shape and looks incredibly natural.
Karndean vs. Carpet
Carpets are far harder to keep clean than Karndean flooring, and may harbour mites and other bacteria. Unlike Karndean, they are also unsuitable for underfloor heating systems, and can be costly to replace.
Karndean vs. Stone Flooring or Ceramic Tiles
One of the major issues with ceramic and stone floor tiles is that they are slippery when they become wet, which may cause problems in kitchens and bathrooms. The textured surfaces of Karndean flooring have been fully tested for slippage, making them ideal for rooms of all types. In addition, they weigh less than their stone and ceramic alternatives, making them easier to install and suitable for upstairs use. Karndean flooring is also warmer to the touch than these two flooring options.
Karndean vs. Hardwood
Karndean flooring is far easier to maintain than hardwood flooring, with no need for sanding, lacquering, staining and more. It also retains its shape, and is not warped by changes in moisture or temperature - while still offering the knot and grain features that are loved by fans of hardwood flooring.
