Laminate flooring seems to be popular among home owners who are looking for a beautiful, durable, yet cost-effective flooring solution for their home. As matter of fact, I am recommending it for my client who is looking to replace her old carpet.
Many of today’s laminate styles consist of extremely authentic wood or natural stone visuals to accommodate any room. I am recommending the “plank” look, which resembles real cherry wood.
Laminate floors are relatively new to this country, but have been used in Europe for more than 25 years because laminate flooring can be installed over many types of existing floors it has made it a natural for old European buildings since it is installed floated over the subfloor.
By using the countertop technology and adding considerably more resin to the wear layer, some laminate floor manufacturers boast that their laminate floors are now 10 to 20 times harder than laminate countertops.
Since this resin-filled wear layer is so dense, it becomes extremely difficult to stain or scratch.
So, if you are thinking of replacing your old carpet with hard-surface flooring, sure to check out laminate options.
