Made to capture your favorite hardwood and stone styles, laminate flooring is affordable and innovative. A wonderful choice for every room, laminate flooring resists moisture and wear without worry. At Whitmore Carpet One Floor & Home of Oakwood Village, OH, we have a passion for laminate flooring and can help you meet your next match.

Laminate vs Hardwood

Laminate flooring is made to resemble fine hardwood. Don’t be fooled: these two flooring families have an extensive list of differences. Laminate flooring doesn’t mind getting splashes on. It resists everyday moisture and damages. Unlike “real” hardwood, laminate flooring is affordable and doesn’t require major upkeep.

Your laminate floor was manufactured in synthetic layers. A digitally enhanced top layer provides nature-inspired textures. Nails aren’t part of the process, while the future ahead doesn’t include wood polish, sanding, or refinishing. Your wallet will also note the difference.

Is Laminate Flooring Waterproof?

Laminate flooring is made to resist moisture. It can be installed in about any room. Everyday accidents won’t do harm, provided they’re dealt with in reasonable fashion.

Certain laminate flooring products are built even tougher. Made for 100% waterproofing, these reinforced laminate floors can be used in splash zones like the kitchen or bath. Our exclusive line of Mirror Lake Performance Flooring is one type of waterproof laminate merging ultimate function and design.

Laminate Flooring Installation

Laminate flooring is renowned for its swift installation prospects. Engineered for ease of install, laminate flooring simply clicks into place. Nails and hammers aren’t needed, so you’ll not only save on materials: you’ll save on labor costs.

While it’s tempting to try installing your own laminate floor, we recommend seeking professional advice before you leap. Laminate installation requires a clean, consistent subfloor. Additionally, a professional installation is sometimes required per your product warranty. Our friendly flooring specialists are always happy to discuss your various laminate installation routes.
