Quick-Step Classic Laminate Flooring

Why Choose Quick-Step Classic?

• Water Resistance: Each plank is treated with a HydroSeal water-repellent coating. This prevents surface moisture from soaking into the core, making the range suitable for kitchens and bathrooms when installed correctly.

• Surface Protection: The Scratch Guard top layer is engineered to be up to ten times more resistant to micro-scratches than standard laminates, helping to protect against damage from furniture, pets, and children.

• Simple Installation: Using the patented Uniclic system, the boards simply snap together without the need for glue. This creates a tight, secure seam that is also compatible with underfloor heating.

• Traditional Finish: The 1200mm long planks often feature a four-sided bevelled edge, which creates a small groove between boards to mimic the look of authentic floorboards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I install Quick-Step Classic in a bathroom? Yes, the Classic range is water-resistant thanks to its HydroSeal coating. To ensure it is fully protected in a bathroom, you should seal the perimeter with a foam strip and silicone (Hydrokit) to prevent water from getting underneath the planks.

How do I clean this flooring? For daily maintenance, use a vacuum with a soft brush attachment or a dry microfibre mop. For a deeper clean, use a damp (not soaking wet) mop with a dedicated laminate cleaner. Avoid using steam mops, as the heat and pressure can damage the planks.

Do I need an underlay with Quick-Step Classic? Yes, an underlay is required to provide a level base, reduce impact noise, and act as a moisture barrier on concrete subfloors. Choosing the right underlay can also improve the performance of underfloor heating.

Is this floor suitable for pets? Yes. The Scratch Guard technology makes this range highly resistant to scuffs and scratches from claws, while the water-resistant surface handles occasional accidents or wet paw prints effectively.

The thickness is 8mm and is suitable for underfloor heating.
