What is a Laminate Floor? Whether you are remodeling or building a new home laminate floors have become a popular choice for active areas within the home. If you love the look of real hardwood but are concerned with the upkeep then laminate floors could be your answer. Originally from Europe, laminate floors have become a major flooring category with South African consumers. Today, consumers can find a wide selection of laminate flooring brands in many different designs, sizes and colors. Laminate flooring manufacturers use sophisticated, computerized technology to create realistic designs. The top wear layer is incredibly durable and easy to care for & mantain. It is also impervious to most stains, spills, burns and extremely scratch-resistant. Laminate floors are installed by floating the planks over most substrates including concrete slabs and some existing floor coverings. The planks and tiles have tongue and groove edges that lock them together. These floors are never secured directly to the sub floor. Most laminate floors require no glue to secure the planks and tiles together, they just snap together. Some other laminate floors are pre-glued at the factory and only require a damp sponge to re-activate the adhesive along the tongue edges. While a few other laminate floors do require a specially formulated glue to be applied to each of the plank edges. We ensure your floor is professionally fitted, finished off & that it will provide you with years of comfort. We also stock all the trims & skirtings needed to finish your installation off.
