Amtico, yay or nay?

[DarkBlueEyes]

I need to find new flooring for a significant part of our house (big renovation and extension coming up I am not scared ).

We have original oak floorboards in the study, living and dining rooms. Living room is having an extension and will therefore need solid oak flooring coordinated to current floor and staggered in so it won't look completely silly.

New flooring needed in kitchen, hall and entrance way, as well as utility, bootroom and corridor outside indoor pool.

I had thought of engineered oak as we want underfloor heating, with grippy tiles outside pool (current tiles are like an ice rink - absolutely lethal).

I had the local flooring guy out today and he has suggested Amtico to coordinate with the current flooring. I had a look at the brochure and it looks quite good.

Any views or experiences? I don't know anything about it but am assuming it would be good in the areas where it might get water on it, as opposed to the wood.

Thank you in advance for reading this far!

Renovating my 1930's house and just had Amtico fiited to hallway and dining room in herringbone pattern (priory oak design)

Looks great, very happy.

forgot to say, comes with a lifetime gaurantee from Amtico, doesn't require any special care. It is more expensive than Karndean but is a superior product, made in England vs China. Just depends how long you want it to last?

Daptor, looks fab. We are about to knock through for kitchen/diner and have had a quote for Amtico but debating whether to go with these tiles www.toppstiles.co.uk/tprod46455/patchwalk-455x91-tile.html instead.

We have four cats which like playing with their water bowl, a puppy and a 3 year old. Would I get all precious if I had Amtico?

I have a cat and a very lively English bull terrier who treats the flooring like a racetrack, its been down a couple of months now and Zero marks on the floor even with the racing starts and skidding stops from her nails. It is really robust and actually quite warm underfoot.

I highly recommend Amtico. They do a really good job
