Are you looking for an affordable alternative to natural hardwood flooring? Laminate is a great alternative to natural hardwood as it offers the looks while offering durability where real wood cannot. We proudly offer a wide selection of laminate flooring options at I-5 Carpet One Floor & Home in Chehalis, Washington. As wood-look flooring continues to trend, laminate flooring continues to adapt and offer more styles and better durability. Laminate might not have been your first choice, but you should remember how affordable it is! Today's laminate flooring features more realistic visuals, quality materials, and increased durability.
Most laminate flooring today replicates the look and feel of natural hardwood. The image layer consists of a high-definition digitally printed image under a layer of strong polyurethane. Most laminate planks also feature textures similar to hardwood. Unlike hardwood, the top layer of laminate is made to resist scratching, gouging, and other damage from impact. It is naturally wear-resistant, and no additional treatments or finishes are needed. This layer also makes the floors much easier to clean. Laminate wood flooring has unique support layers called the core and base layers, making it more dimensionally stable than natural hardwood. Laminate planks rarely buckle or collapse, even when exposed to extreme stresses.
Looking for durable, affordable flooring options? Consider the many advantages of installing laminate floors in your home.
Now that luxury vinyl and laminate are both offered with 100% waterproof technology, they’re frequently compared. Both offer gorgeous natural hardwood, and the tile looks indistinguishable from the real thing. While vinyl is made from synthetic materials, laminate is created by gluing together layers of composite wood with a high-definition wood or tile-look finish. Today’s laminate is more scratch—and dent-resistant than luxury vinyl. It also comes at a cheaper price point in many cases.
Waterproof laminate is the best choice for moisture-proof flooring. Unlike hardwood floors, which warp from water exposure, laminate has a stable, waterproof construction.
