What is the difference between vinyl, laminate, and solid wood floors?
When deciding between vinyl, laminate, and solid wood floors, whether finished or unfinished you first need to consider where you will be installing your floor. Each have pro’s and con’s. Is it new construction or an existing home? Is it over a slab foundation or a standard subfloor? Will it be in a room where there may be a possibility of moisture or water damage? All these must be taken into account before you can make your final decision. Laminates like “Formica” are a good choice for a kitchen, laundry, or bath.
