Laminate flooring is our favorite hardwood imposter, mimicking all the intricate finishes and grains you love. This dense, sturdy synthetic floor brings endless options: even for the bathroom and kitchen. Today there are even realistic laminate flooring options that capture the looks of your favorite stone flooring- like fine grained marble patterns.

Modern laminate floor planks are made of multiple layers of composite wood. These layers dictate how your new laminate floor will look, feel, and function.
Laminate flooring looks and feels exactly like hardwood, but that DOESN’T mean they are one and the same!
Laminate flooring is designed to perfectly replicate luxurious hardwood floors. While these flooring families look and feel alike, they are quite distinctive.
Since laminate flooring is manufactured rather than milled, it’s equipped with supportive and dense layers to cushion your feet. Its top surface consists of a digitally enhanced image and a clear, protective topcoat.

Yes, laminate flooring is very efficient to install.
Most laminate flooring installation methods involve, clicking and locking your laminate planks in place. Seriously, it’s that simple! You won’t need hammers, nails, adhesives, or other annoying tools to accomplish your goals.
Despite its easy installation prospects, we still recommend a professional laminate flooring installation.
Mistakes can happy very easily if you’re not comfortable with each step of your installation process. Even through they’re relatively simple to install compared to hardwood or traditional tile, laminate floors still need a clean, spotless, and fully leveled subfloor for best results. Often, a professional installation is a condition of warranty coverage.
