Installing Laminate Floors
Installing Laminate Floors is the quick and easy way to update the look of your home
Laminate Floors are a tongue and groove interlocking floor system that rests on top of an existing floor. It can be used on concrete slab, plywood, vinyl flooring, hardwood flooring, or nearly any other hard and flat surface. Rather than being affixed to the floor underneath, Laminate Floors rest on top of the existing floor and each tile of flooring links to others. Laminate Flooring is made of components that are bonded together. The top layer is a wear resistant decorative surface that is made of resin-based melamine. On this layer, the resin is extremely dense, making it very difficult to scratch, stain or burn. This layer is bonded to a moisture-resistant wood-based core which then has balancing backing bonded to the underside of the core. The result is an extremely durable floor product. The beauty of laminate floors is they can be fabricate to mimic the appearance of nearly any other flooring, but both the materials and the installation are far more inexpensive. The most common Laminate Floor designs have a wood grain or stone and marble appearance. The quality of a Laminate Floor is only as good as the installer.
