Why Laminate Flooring?

Laminate flooring is the latest and hottest trend to hit the consumer flooring market since the invention of linoleum!

Plainly put, it's an ultra-durable floor that looks like a real hardwood or natural stone, yet costs about one-third less than 'real wood,' it is simpler to install and on average lasts longer. Laminate flooring also has a variety of other benefits, including:

• High Ultraviolet resistance, blocking the sun's damaging rays and shielding the floor pattern from fading over time.
• Easy installation.
• Excellent warranty protection.
• Easy repairs, since damaged boards can be replaced without contrasting with the pattern of surrounding boards.
• Easy cleaning, since laminate flooring doesn't trap dirt. The majority of spills can be cleaned up with a terry-cloth mop or sponge.

Laminate Flooring Means...Versatility!
Laminate flooring gives you flexibility. Wood grains and lightly colored natural stone patterns provide the chance to significantly alter the overall look and feel of a interior space by changing some of the accents. A guest room, for example, can be transformed with the seasons by merely changing out the linens.

Be Creative
Look at your design options from different angles: laminate flooring can be installed diagonally (instead of straight) -- and laminate tiles can either be laid corner-to-corner or in a staggered arrangement to fashion a variety of diverse looks. These types of installations require an extra 15-20% more material for waste, but visually is worth it!

Match or Contrast ... That's the Question!
With so many hardwood grain looks on hand in laminate flooring, most homeowners are tempted to try to match their new floor to the color of existing cabinetry. This may work in some instances, but you will probably be more pleased with the end result if you select a contrasting or coordinating look.
