Built with simplicity, strength, and style in mind, laminate flooring is a beautiful addition to many homes. Laminate floors of today are much more durable and natural-looking than in the past. At Hyland Carpet One Floor & Home in Sudbury, Ontario, we are your local source for beautiful flooring, including plenty of quality laminate options.

Laminate vs Hardwood

Thanks to high-definition photography, laminate floors look virtually identical to hardwood from above. Each plank is made by layering pieces of composite wood together, and then placing a wood look visual toward the surface that’s protected by a durable finish. Laminate floors are also textured to feel like real wood. However, they are more scratch and dent-resistant, economical, and moisture-repellent.

Is Laminate Waterproof?

Laminate floors used to only be available with water-resistant protection. They could handle spills relatively well, but not too much moisture too often. Today, we carry many different waterproof laminate flooring options. These are ideal for even your most challenging water-prone spaces. They will protect your subfloor from water damage, while also repelling stains and odours.

Where Can Laminate Be Installed?

Laminate can be installed anywhere you would put hardwood and beyond. Waterproof laminate can be installed in kitchens, mudrooms, bathrooms, and other high-moisture settings. We also have stone look laminate floors for clients who want a tile appearance. Our expert team has years of experience installing a variety of floors, including laminate. We can handle all your residential laminate installations, and we also recommend this type of flooring for light-use commercial settings, like boutique shops and small offices.
