As summer draws to a close, it is important for your home to be a place that brings you comfort and warmth, especially as the colder months begin to creep up on us. Your flooring has a big impact on giving your home that perfect ‘homely’ feel - choosing the right type can make a big difference.

At Covers there are two popular options when it comes to flooring, especially if carpet isn’t really your thing. They are solid wood flooring and engineered flooring, but why are they such good options?

Where to start?

It is tricky knowing where to start when choosing a new flooring style, especially if it’s something you’ve not really focused on or had an interest in before, which is why it is good to get the right information.

It can be easy to lose track of your house décor, especially during winter. However, wall panelling is one of the simplest and most effective ways to give your home a new lease of life by making your walls look a little more interesting.

Panelling has been a quick growing trend over the past year and it’s clear to see why - it allows for gorgeous designs, colours, and textures that are unique to you. It also provides insulation, gives you the chance to cover up any uneven walls and is very cost-effective.

Types of Wall Panelling

There is a range of different wall panelling out there, so let’s take a look and see what would work for your home.

Tongue and Groove

Tongue and groove wall panelling gives you the look and feel of classic panelling in a fraction of the time and without the need of a joiner. Add character to your kitchen, personality to your bedroom or install it in the hallway and up the stairs for a grand

Plywood

Plywood is available in a wide range of styles and thicknesses depending on the application. It can be used internally and externally depending on the class.

Plywood is very closely related to MDF and chipboard that you will also find in our sheet materials section. It is manufactured from engineered wood that is cut into fine veneers and then rotated 90 degrees for every tier and glued together. This is different to solid wood which has one wood grain, where as this method is known as a cross-grain technique.

There are several benefits to this technique including:

• High strength and stability
• Prevention of warping
• Lower split risk – especially when nails are used around the edges of the sheet

What can plywood be used for?

High quality plywood can be a great alternative to solid-wood as well as being more versatile
