What is Laminate Flooring?

Laminate flooring is constructed of a protective wear layer over a decorative sheet containing the pattern, supported by a rigid core and bottom balance layer to help prevent warping. 

 

Benefits of Laminate

• Laminate flooring is water-resistant, making it a good option for kitchens and bathrooms.
• This flooring is extremely tough, resisting scuffs, scratches, dents, and more!
• Here at Martins Carpet One, we offer a range of designs to match your interior style, e.g., wood and stone look.

Laminate vs Vinyl Flooring: Which One Is Best For You?

With so many new choices in flooring, how can you be sure which one is best for you? Laminate and vinyl are both comparable in cost and peace of mind, however, there are still some differences. Here’s a closer look at the benefits of each flooring type.

 

Benefits of Laminate

• A cost-effective choice for large installation areas
• More water resistance thanks to its tighter seams and moldings
• Ease of installation, care, and maintenance
• Three-dimensional design layer that allows for a more detailed wood look or tile look.

Benefits of Vinyl

• Budget-friendly cost
• Water-resistant & heat-resistant 
• Easy, versatile, and quick installation
• Provides the look and feel of wood 

Laminate vs. Hardwood

While hardwood and laminate look alike, they’re constructed very differently. Here’s a comparison of each flooring type and the benefits they offer.

 

Laminate Flooring

• Laminate planks are designed by gluing together layers of composite wood, guaranteeing durability and strength.
• Laminate features a high-definition wood look surface that’s textured to match the feel of the wood grain at half the cost.
• Unlike natural or solid hardwood, laminate flooring is water-resistant and can be installed in areas where hardwood can’t, e.g., kitchens, mudrooms, and bathrooms.

Hardwood Flooring

• In contrast, hardwood floors add value to any home, because they are made from natural hardwoods like oak, hickory, and maple. 
• Engineered hardwood flooring is water resistant and, in some cases, waterproof. This is a bonus for homeowners who want hardwoods in bathrooms and kitchens. 
• Both solid and engineered hardwoods can be refinished for an upgraded look and style.

Laminate Flooring Installation

Laminate is easy to install and simple to maintain. Plus, we even offer waterproof options! It’s an ideal flooring choice for homeowners who are interested in a durable and carefree floor. 

 

Where To Install Laminate

• Bathrooms
• Living Rooms
