Our laminate selection features unique and beautiful looks including hand scraped, exotic and traditional wood looks. Also available are looks inspired by the “reclaimed wood” trends in flooring, cabinets and furniture. Laminate flooring has improved greatly in recent years. There have been many improvements in both quality and design. Our laminate selections are stylish and durable with realistic hardwood visuals. Many feature dramatic details and distinctive colors. Some are now water resistant or even waterproof! Check out the rest of our post to learn about laminate flooring.
DURABILITY & COST
Laminate, when maintained, will last for many years. The melamine surface means your floor can stand up to a barrage of traffic from people and pets. It’s a great option for heavy traffic areas.
Laminate floors are a great lower cost option. If your flooring budget is limited, consider laminate for a hardwood look alternative that costs less and is more durable.
CONSTRUCTION
The top surface of laminate flooring is a melamine resin. It will hold up to stains, scratches, burns and fading. It is engineered and can provide the look of real wood. It can also be installed on all grade levels and is available for use in commercial buildings as well.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Laminate floors are easy to clean. Sweeping and vacuuming are great for removing dirt and grit regularly. A robot vacuum is good for this as well if you have one. Using mats at your doors can keep dirt out. Use felt protectors on the bottoms of chairs and table legs. Don’t wax your laminate floors and only clean with approved products. Mop once in a while, but be sure to avoid any excess water on the floors. Clean spills up immediately.
