Laminate Floors
Laminate floor products are made of several layers, starting with a fiberboard base covered by a photographic image to resemble wood, stone, or tile. This is then sealed with a wear-resistant transparent plastic or resin layer to make the floor durable.
Modern laminate floors have evolved since they were first developed in the late 1970s. While they often provide an affordable alternative to hard surface flooring, there are now higher end options available that are waterproof, as well as mimic high-end designer floors.
Advantages of Laminate Floors
- Can be installed over most subfloors, even concrete and existing vinyl. Because it’s easy to install, it’s also inexpensive to install.
- Available in many different colors and finishes, including wood, stone, and tile.
- Very durable, scratch resistant and stain resistant, making it ideal for homes with kids and pets.
- Good option for in-floor heating.
Choosing Laminate Floors
When you are considering laminate flooring for your new home or remodel, we will ask you a number of questions to help guide your decision.
- How much traffic will the room or area receive?
- Does the room have an outside entrance?
- Will the floor be susceptible to a lot of moisture (kitchen, bathroom, laundry room, etc.)?
- Do you have pets?
- Will young children or older adults be using the room frequently?
- Do you have in-floor heat?
Do you think laminate flooring might be a good option for a single room or your whole house?
We can help you choose the right style so you love it when we’re done.
