LAMINATE FLOORING
Attractive, Resilient and Affordable
Laminate flooring provides a more affordable way to acquire the look and feel of timber at a fraction of the cost.
Unlike timber, many laminates have water resistant surfaces or in some cases are waterproof. They also exhibit better resistance to scratching and stains.
With today’s designs, laminates can be almost indistinguishable from real timber. The extra resilience and reduced cost means that laminate floors can provide excellent value for money.
Floating Floor Comparison
Different floating floor options exhibit different properties and strengths.

Tough, durable and easy to clean, authentic timber floors exhibit a much sought-after natural elegance and warmth that many other flooring types attempt to imitate.
- Flooring Height: Between 12-21mm (14mm is most common)
- Can be glued down to sub floor (more costly that floating)
- Requires underlay when installed as floating floor
- Not water resistant
- Moderate to low scratch resistance
- Real timber can be more expensive than other floating floors.

- Requires underlay when installed as floating floor
