What is Laminate?
With so many different style and colour options to pick from, it can be hard to know where to start - we've given you some information below to hopefully help you make that all important decision!
What is Laminate Flooring?
Laminate wood flooring has been around since 1977, and has only improved and further developed since then; from a whole host of better manufacturing processes, improvements to how the panels interlock and their aesthetic qualities, laminate flooring has continued to rise in popularity all around the world. Nowadays, it's common to see laminate flooring in both residential and commercial settings - in the latter, highly durable laminate flooring minimises wear whilst maintaning its impressive visual appeal.
High quality laminate flooring is manufactured by pressing together layers of either synthetic flooring products or pressed wood. These layers are fused together to finish with aesthetically stunning and heavy duty laminate flooring. These layers are finished with an image to give the flooring an authentic natural look, commonly resembling wood, stone or tiles. Finally, a protective layer is added to ensure the laminated flooring is both durable and long-lasting.
Laminate flooring is produced in tiles or boards and can be cut to size according to a room’s requirements. Different pieces snap together which makes for easy installation, and a cost-effective alternative to real hardwood flooring. As well as its numerous visual qualities, high quality laminate flooring comes with an array of other benefits; moisture resistance, easy maintenance and durability all make laminate flooring one of the best options when it comes to new flooring.

It's important to check with the manufacturer for your specific flooring, but for the most part, sweeping and mopping is all you need to keep your laminate flooring in tip-top shape!
Durability: The protective top layer on laminate flooring gives it its hard-wearing and durable properties, meaning it won't show scratches, stains and dents easily, keeping it looking brand new for a long time.
Easy installation: Installing laminate flooring is very possible by yourself, or you can have a professional fitter do it for you. Either way, installing high quality laminate flooring is relatively quick and easy, requiring only a handful of tools and a good eye for measurements! Laminate flooring tiles click into place, making laminate wood flooring a great option for DIY projects.
Versatility: As if you needed any more reasons to choose laminate wood flooring for your next project, its also incredibly versatile. Whether you're looking for the living room, kitchen or anywhere else in the house, laminated floors are a great option for you.

Tips Regarding Laminate Flooring
Not Waterproof
Remember that although very resilient, laminate wood flooring is not waterproof. If you use it in the bathroom or kitchen make sure water doesn’t accumulate in certain areas. For wet areas or spillages, it's crucial you mop up immediately to avoid permanent damage to your laminate flooring.
The Sound
Laminate flooring’s top layer is hard and durable, meaning you'll be able to clearly hear footsteps. Take this into account when deciding on the flooring for your home - one of our carpets might be more suitable if you don't want a constant reminder of the other occupants of your home! The noise is dependent on the thickness of the boards or tiles. Using thicker versions—up to 15mm—can counter some noise.
Look for Authenticity
Do your homework when picking laminate flooring. View boards up close so you can make sure they are a true representation of the design you want - some of our products have samples available for delivery, giving you a good idea what the flooring will look like in your home.
