Advantages
Why Choose Laminate
Laminate flooring is an excellent choice that offers a versatile range of styles and designs to transform any space, whether residential or commercial. High-quality laminate is built to retain its appearance for many years, withstanding the wear and tear of daily life. At Landmark Flooring, we offer an extensive selection of laminate floors from industry-leading suppliers, ensuring we have the perfect option to suit any budget and design preference. We work closely with you to select the best laminate flooring for your space, and we stand behind our work with a full guarantee, confident that you’ll be satisfied with both our products and installation.
Laminate flooring is a great option for many situations, combining durability with style to enhance the look and feel of any room. Its multi-layered construction provides excellent strength, making it resistant to scratches, stains, and fading. In addition to its durability, laminate flooring often comes with water-resistant properties, making it ideal for areas like kitchens, bathrooms, or busy commercial spaces. Laminate floors are also designed to be easy to clean and maintain, requiring only routine sweeping and occasional damp mopping to keep them looking their best.
Another advantage of laminate flooring is its ability to mimic the appearance of natural hardwood at a fraction of the cost. This allows you to achieve the aesthetic appeal of more expensive flooring options without compromising on budget or functionality. Laminate floors are available in a wide range of finishes and textures, allowing you to select a style that complements your space, from modern and sleek to rustic and traditional.
Laminate flooring also contributes to a healthier indoor environment. Unlike carpets, which can trap allergens, laminate provides a smooth surface that doesn’t harbor dust, pollen, or pet dander, making it an excellent choice for people with allergies or asthma. The surface of laminate flooring is easy to clean, helping to maintain healthy indoor air quality. Regular sweeping and mopping can quickly remove dust and dirt, ensuring your space remains clean and fresh.
The construction of laminate flooring also provides some acoustic benefits. While not as sound-absorbing as carpet, laminate can still help reduce noise, especially when installed with the right underlayment. This makes it a good choice for homes, offices, or multi-level buildings where sound control is important.
At Landmark Flooring, we don’t just offer top-quality laminate flooring. We also provide a wide range of other flooring options, including vinyl plank, vinyl tile, and carpet, to help you complete any project with style and ease. Our commitment to your satisfaction is at the core of everything we do, and we guarantee that you’ll be pleased with the results of your new flooring installation.
Composition and Structure
Laminate flooring is composed of several layers, each designed to contribute to its durability, appearance, and overall performance:
Wear Layer: The top layer is a transparent, protective coating that shields the floor from scratches, stains, and fading, ensuring long-lasting durability even in high-traffic areas.
Design Layer: Beneath the wear layer, the design layer contains a high-resolution image that gives the laminate its realistic appearance, mimicking the look of natural materials like hardwood, stone, or tile.
Core Layer: The core is made of high-density fiberboard (HDF) or medium-density fiberboard (MDF), providing stability and strength to the laminate. This layer is essential for impact resistance and structural integrity.
Backing Layer: The bottom layer acts as a moisture barrier and provides additional stability to the entire structure. It helps protect the floor from warping and damage due to moisture from the subfloor.
Underlayment: Laminate is often installed over an underlayment, which adds cushioning, improves sound absorption, and provides a smoother surface for installation.
These layers work together to create a durable, attractive, and easy-to-maintain flooring option suitable for a variety of spaces.
