Strong & Stylish Laminate Flooring
Enjoy Stylish Laminate Flooring with Exceptional Durability
Types of Laminate Flooring Explained
When considering what type of laminate flooring may be the most suitable for you, it is important to understand the different types that we have available in our showroom. Laminate sports a solid appearance and contains four distinct layers. It is manufactured with a base that protects against moisture and a core that can withstand heavy foot traffic. The next layer is decorative, allowing for a variety of patterns that can realistically mimic wood or stone. To top it all off is a wear layer typically compounded with melanin resin and aluminum oxide; elements that protect your floor from stains and other markings. This produces a beautiful flooring option that is available in a variety of colors or patterns, with a resemblance to wood or stone surfaces. At Imperial Flooring America, we provide two types of laminate flooring:
- Laminate Wood Flooring - This gorgeous laminate flooring type gives you an elegant wood look with the exceptional functional benefits of laminate. You can rest easy knowing daily household mishaps and excess moisture is no match for your stylish wood-look flooring. Whether you desire a lovely mahogany look for your living room or a rustic oak look in your bedrooms, we bring enhanced wood visuals with registered embossing with the prices and performance you deserve.
- Laminate Tile Flooring - If you dream of a classy porcelain bathroom or a beautiful ceramic pattern in your kitchen, opt for this durable tile alternative. Not only is laminate much more affordable than tile, but it is also much warmer underfoot on rainy Eugene, OR, mornings.
How is Laminate Flooring Different Than Luxury Vinyl Flooring?
While laminate and luxury vinyl floors offer similar functionality and beautiful looks, there are a few distinct differences to note. The first is price. Laminate floors tend to be less expensive than their LVP or LVT alternatives due to the materials used. Laminate has a wood by-product core while vinyl is typically composed entirely of plastic. Both have a similar installation process, typically using a click-and-lock or tongue-and-groove system for a tight seal. Lastly, laminate floors are water-resistant while luxury vinyl floors can be 100% waterproof. Both are wonderful flooring solutions. Visit us today to find out which type is best for your lifestyle.
