Why Laminate Flooring?

From the surface, laminate flooring looks just like regular wood floor panels. However, it’s constructed very differently. Each laminate plank is created by adhering layers of composite wood. At the surface, a high-definition visual of high-end hardwood creates the illusion that you’re standing on solid wood flooring. The benefit of this is that laminate flooring is more affordable and easier to care for than real hardwood. It’s also more moisture-resistant and won’t warp as easily when exposed to humidity and spills. Additionally, we have distinct types of laminate flooring, including stone and tile looks.

Is Laminate Flooring Waterproof?

Laminate flooring describes a category of flooring that is made of durable wood materials and a realistic laminate layer printed to mimic the looks of hardwood, stone, and even marble. Certain laminate floors are fully water-resistant, making it a good option for high-traffic and moisture-prone areas in your home. These features make laminate floors a desirable choice for households with children and pets.

Laminate Installation

Laminate flooring is more versatile than real wood flooring. You can install it on every level of your home, including basements and light-moisture areas like the kitchen. Wood look laminate looks beautiful in bedrooms, living rooms, home offices, and other spaces.

The manufacturing process of laminate makes for easier installation. Because laminate flooring planks are designed to interlock, they are much easier to install and can often be “floated” on top of an existing floor. This means that the floor is not actually glued or nailed directly to the subfloor. Less time for your installer also means lower installation costs. With installation costs taking up a significant part of any new flooring budget, this is a big win for the overall budget of a laminate flooring project.
