Laminate flooring has long been a top flooring choice for homeowners and businesses who want something affordable, simple to install, and durable.

What Is Laminate Flooring?

 

Laminate floors are manufactured products that are compressed in sturdy layers.

 

Each laminate plank has:

 

  • A realistic image layer
  • A transparent wear layer
  • A hefty core made of sturdy particle board

 

Laminate flooring is built by compressing and gluing together several layers of composite wood, and then placing a wood look image toward the surface. The floor also has a surface finish that’s exceptionally strong.

How Does Laminate Flooring Really Compare to Hardwood Floors?

Modern laminate flooring looks and feels almost exactly like your favorite hardwood species and cut.

 

As a result of high-definition photography and advanced printing techniques, modern laminate flooring is a stunning imposter for natural hardwood flooring, thanks to its realistic image layer.

 

From above, many consumers can’t tell the difference. However, laminate flooring is more water-repellent than most hardwood floors, and it has greater scratch and dent-resistance. It’s also more affordable and requires much less time and money to purchase, install, and maintain. Nails aren’t required to install it, and you’ll never need nails or floor polish.

 

 

 

Is Laminate Flooring Waterproof?

Not all laminate flooring is made quite the same.

 

All laminate floors are made to resist a fair amount of normal moisture, but select options are fully waterproof. We carry many waterproof laminate flooring options that are designed to lock out 100% of moisture, so you don’t need to worry about pet accidents, spills, or humidity affecting your floors.

 

Use waterproof laminate flooring in spaces like bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and anywhere your pets or kids tend to hang out.

 

 

Where Can Laminate Floors Be Installed?

Laminate flooring is a great addition to many interior spaces, including both residential and commercial buildings.

 

It’s best suited for anywhere you can install hardwood floors, including:

 

  • Dining Rooms
  • Offices
  • Living Rooms
  • Bedrooms
  • Hallways
  • Entryways

 

 

Our waterproof laminate flooring is also ideal for kitchens, mudrooms, and similar areas. We also carry laminate flooring choices that work well in light-use commercial settings, like small offices, waiting rooms, hotels, and boutiques.

 

 

Can I Install My Own Laminate Floor?

Laminate flooring is simpler to install than other hard surface floors, but that doesn’t mean you should immediately jump into a DIY project.

 

Easy to install, laminate flooring is often designed to click-together for a floating floor, with no adhesives required during the installation process. This makes it quick and simple to replace individual planks if needed.

 

Sound like a breeze? Not so fast, even simple to install floors can go wrong quickly if you’re not handy with household tools! Choose professional flooring installation and you’ll rest easy knowing your project is done correctly the first time, and your product warranty will be honored, no matter what happens tomorrow.
