Good laminate floors resist scratching, cutting, and denting, take a lifetime of wear and do not stain. They are great for remodel applications because they are normally about 1/4′ thick and can go over almost any existing floor (other than carpet) with little or no floor prep.  Also, because it uses a free-floating installation it doesn’t separate as some plank wood flooring does.  The wood looks offer a great alternative for customers that are worried about the scratching, wear or denting of real wood. Great for active families… again, as we like to say “rocks in shoes, big dogs, and kids fire trucks”.  In the tile look laminate can eliminate the concern of grout staining & cleaning. Laminates are also warmer and softer on the feet and legs for those that are on their feet all day, or maybe more sensitive to hard ceramic or stone flooring.  Laminate floors are perfect candidates for many rooms in the house including kitchens, playrooms, hallways and bedrooms where water is not a primary concern.
