Laminate floors are incredibly durable, easy to care for and come in a wide variety of realistic stone and wood flooring designs. If you love the look of real hardwood but are concerned with the upkeep than laminate floors are the answer. If you are concerned with tearing up old flooring or are budget-minded, then laminate flooring may be a great choice for you.

Laminate flooring manufacturers use sophisticated, computerized technology to create realistic designs that are well protected by a tough outer coating that is impervious to most stains, spills, burns and are extremely scratch-resistant. These floors come in both planks and tiles, and can be floated over most substrates including concrete slabs and existing floor coverings.

For the do-it-yourself homeowner most laminate floors have specialized, glue less tongue and grooved locking system that makes installation a snap! No messy glues needed and are easy to fix, in case you make an error while installing.

Laminate flooring textures offer the realism of hardwood graining and natural tile etching. You can choose from natural colors, dark wood grains, as well as warm or cool color tones to compliment any room decor. Many hardwood plank designs are offered, including rare, exotic wood species. Stone and tile patterns will give you the elegant look of tile, but without the concerns about grout cleaning or cracking tile.

Laminate floors are never secured directly to the subfloor; instead, they are floated over the subfloor. This allows laminate flooring to be used over a wide variety of subfloors, including wooden subfloors, existing floors and even concrete slabs.

Laminate flooring comes in several different forms:

Glueless laminate flooring
No mess, glue-less installation makes these floors quick and easy-to-install. They come in a variety of ceramic and wood designs and colorations, as well as some manufacturers offer a real, hardwood veneer instead of a printed layer. These floors come in both planks and squares. A thin, plastic underlayment is needed to seal out moisture from below.

Laminate flooring with attached underlay
These floors come with several different types of tongue and groove locking systems and an attached underlayment to reduce noise levels.

Glued laminate flooring
These are the original laminate floors that do require a special formulated glue to be applied to the tongue and grooved areas for each plank. Once the glue is dried, the planks are almost impossible to pull apart. These floors are offered in both planks and squares.

Pre-glued laminate flooring
No mess, because the glue is already applied to the tongue and grooves that makes these floors quick and easy-to-install. A thin, plastic underlayment is needed to seal out moisture and prevent the glue from sticking to the substrate.
