What to know

Laminate Flooring FAQs

You’ll find laminate flooring that mimics a wide variety of wood species, from classic oaks and maples to more exotic choices like hickory or even reclaimed wood looks. Colors range from light and airy whites and grays, perfect for modern spaces, to rich, warm browns and deep, dramatic shades for a more traditional feel. Beyond color, you can also find variations in texture. Some laminates have an embossed surface that closely matches the grain pattern of the wood they emulate, adding to the authentic look and feel. We encourage you to visit our showroom to see the full range of styles and colors we offer, so you can find the perfect match for your home’s décor.

Absolutely! That’s our specialty. Modern laminate flooring technology has advanced significantly, and the wood-look laminates we carry are incredibly realistic. They capture the natural beauty and texture of real hardwood, often at a more affordable price point. From the grain patterns to the color variations, you’ll be amazed at how closely our laminate flooring resembles genuine hardwood. Many people find it difficult to tell the difference!

Both laminate and vinyl plank flooring are popular choices, but they have key differences. Laminate flooring typically has a core made of high-density fiberboard (HDF) and a photographic top layer that gives it the wood-look appearance. Vinyl plank flooring, on the other hand, is made primarily of PVC plastic and also has a photographic top layer. Laminate tends to be more rigid and durable, offering excellent resistance to scratches and dents. Vinyl plank is more flexible and often has better moisture resistance, making it suitable for areas like bathrooms or kitchens. Both are great options, and the best choice depends on your specific needs and the room where the flooring will be installed. We can help you determine which is right for you.

While laminate flooring is durable, taking preventative measures can help keep it looking its best for years to come. Using doormats at entrances can trap dirt and grit that could scratch the surface. Felt pads on the feet of furniture will prevent scratches when moving chairs or tables. Avoid wearing shoes with high heels or cleats on your laminate floors. Regular sweeping or vacuuming with a soft brush attachment will remove debris that could cause scratches over time. Be mindful of moving heavy objects across the floor; it’s always best to lift them instead of dragging them.

With proper care and maintenance, laminate flooring can last for many years, often 10 to 20 years or even longer. The lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the laminate, the amount of foot traffic, and how well it’s maintained. Choosing a high-quality laminate, like the ones we offer, and following the recommended cleaning and care guidelines will help maximize the life of your new floors. We’re happy to discuss the expected lifespan of the specific laminate styles we carry and provide you with detailed care instructions.
