What Is Laminate?

From the surface, laminate looks identical to wood floor panels. However, unlike solid hardwood, each laminate plank is constructed by adhering several layers of composite wood together. At the surface is a high-definition hardwood visual encased by a protective layer. This layered construction adds more dimensional stability and prevents the planks from swelling in humid or wet conditions. There are also different types of laminate flooring, including stone and tile looks.

Where Can Laminate Be Installed?

Thanks to its moisture-resistant properties, laminate is often more versatile than solid hardwood. You can install it in basements and light-moisture areas, including foyers, kitchens, game rooms, laundry rooms, and more. One of the major advantages of laminate is that it comes in a snap lock format that’s easy to install and requires minimal labor. This adds to laminate’s budget-friendly quality.
