For those of you who are wondering what is a laminate floor, they are really a combination of special resins (melamine), a print film and paper layer, a fiber core in the middle, and a resin filled backer sheet that are all fused together into one solid piece. Although they appear similar to a Formica countertop, they are really much more durable and scratch resistant. Due to its construction and components, laminate flooring will not stain, fade from sunlight, and the finish is extremely impact resistant. These floors have precision tongue and groove edges for securing the planks together, and they can be installed over most types of subfloors.

Most of the laminate flooring brands carries a 15 to 25 year warranty against staining, fading, and wearing through the finish to the print layer. Recently, some of the manufacturers have also added a Water Damage Warranty, which protects you if you use these floors in a kitchen or bathroom and have an accident. Like all flooring we recommend regular maintenance to get years out of your flooring investment.
