Alternatives to laminate in your apartment include budget-friendly materials that can keep your floors warm, even in the bathroom—durable options to consider.

Instead of laminate, you can opt for heterogeneous linoleum. This is a high-quality, durable, and practical choice for apartments and homes.

Heterogeneous linoleum provides excellent thermal insulation, keeping the floors warm. It can be installed quickly, often in just a few hours.

The main advantages of heterogeneous linoleum include moisture resistance, thermal insulation, and practicality, as noted by the Zen channel "With Renovation for Life." The material does not deform when exposed to water and ensures a warm floor even in corner rooms.

Unlike laminate, linoleum can be quickly laid down without glue or other auxiliary materials. You will only need a level floor and the linoleum itself.

The installation process consists of several steps:

Step 1. First, prepare the surface. The floor should be clean and even.

Step 2. Next, roll out the linoleum on the floor, leaving some extra material at the edges. Use a linoleum knife to cut the material to the required size.

Step 3. Then, lay the linoleum starting from the corner. Roll over the surface with a roller to eliminate any bubbles. The edges of the linoleum can be glued down.
