Laminate Flooring
For many people Laminate Flooring is the ideal solution for creating a more attractive home
Laminate Flooring consists of interlocking sections of flooring that actually sits on top of the existing floor in a room. It can be installed on top of a concrete slab, plywood, vinyl flooring, hardwood flooring, or nearly any other surface that is hard and flat. It is not affixed to the underlying floor, and for that reason it is relatively easy and inexpensive to install. The pieces of flooring actually link to one another. Laminate Flooring consists of several layers that are bonded together. The top layer, made of a resin-based melamine, is the decorative surface and is wear resistant. The dense resin used in this layer makes the top of the floor extremely resistant to scratches, stains, or burns. The lower side of this layer is bonded to a moisture-resistant wood-based core which then has balancing backing bonded to the underside of the core. When it is all compressed together the result is extremely durable flooring that is lightweight, attractive, and relatively easy to install. The most common Laminate Flooring designs are a wood grain look, or a stone and marble appearance. There are many different types of Laminate Flooring of varying levels of quality, thus it is important that you purchase your flooring from a reputable dealer.
