What is laminate flooring and when should I pick laminate over hardwood flooring?
Laminate flooring is versatile, durable, attractive flooring with the appearance of a hardwood floor. Although laminate flooring may look like wood flooring, there is actually no solid wood used in its construction. Laminate flooring is much cheaper than traditional hardwood flooring. It can be installed fairly quickly and inexpensively. It is designed to be scratch-resistant and fade resistant, two areas where solid hardwood flooring is known to be more vulnerable. Laminate flooring is perfect for anyone wanting a durable floor for a fraction of the price and installation time of a hardwood floor, but with the attractiveness of real hardwood.
