Five Thing To Determine If Laminate Flooring Is Right For You

You want to get rid of that raggedy carpet?
Sick of that ugly tile that came with the house? You may be asking yourself the following questions about laminate flooring:
1. What do you mean by laminate? Isn’t that Pergo?
“Laminate flooring” is to Pergo as “bathroom tissue” is to Kleenex. It’s a brand name, and a good one, but there are many other good brands to choose from.
2. So what is laminate flooring, anyway?
Laminte is not made of wood, but is in fact a series of layers of pictures of wood pressed together to make a sturdy surface. This picture layer is securely attached to an HDF (High Density Fiberboard) platform that gives the floor depth and strength. It is not to be confused with “engineered hardwood flooring” which is a veneer of real hardwood on attached to a plywood platform.
3. What about cost?
Laminate flooring is a great choice for the budget-conscious buyer. It can be considerably less expensive than solid hardwood or engineered hardwood. And it is a floating floor so the installation cost is up to 40% less as well.
4. Is it a good floor?
Laminate flooring is extremely scratch resistant. It is a recommended choice at Lumber Liquidators for folks with concerns about their big dog’s nails. The better laminate flooring (and the quality has improved in the few decades it has been on the market) is sturdy and quiet.
5. I’ve heard laminate floors are noisy to walk on. Is that true?
Generally, NO! Not if installed correctly.
As stated before, manufacturing has improved over the years. However, there is still a wide variety of qualities available. The main difference is the thickness of the product – it can range from 6 mm to 12mm, and the thicker the better, generally. A quality 12mm laminate floor with a good pad underneath is a great floor. This writer had one in his very large living room and kitchen for several years and was very impressed. (Thatwas “Pergo,” by the way.)
So laminate flooring installation may be the best investment for YOUR home!
