Laminate floors show off a wood or tile look
Practical and versatile laminate floors provide a wood or tile look at a fraction of the cost of the materials they imitate. The flooring is appropriate for use in basements, half bathrooms, and living areas of the home. Wood-look planks mimic many wood species while tiles are available in styles that look like hardwood, natural stone, and ceramic. Stick and Stone Flooring has a laminate flooring showroom in Wildwood, Florida. You can find a wide assortment of styles with us!
Multi-layer
Laminate flooring is a multi-layer synthetic product that usually has a fiberboard core. A backing layer, which protects both the floor and the subfloor, provides stability. A transparent wear layer protects the high tech image layer from stains as well as scratches, scuffs, and other types of abrasion. Because of its makeup, this flooring is warm underfoot and thus, comfortable to walk on.

Durability
It's easy to determine the durability of these products since they are tested for several kinds of abrasion. When browsing through samples, look for the AC (abrasion coefficient) rating, which ranges from 1 to 5. Flooring is tested for resistance to burns, stains, water, and more. Flooring with an AC3 rating is ideal for all residential applications.
Waterproof
Water needs to be cleaned up immediately while water on waterproof-resistant laminate needs to be cleaned up as soon as possible. Waterproof-resistant flooring repels water only for the amount of time listed by the manufacturer in the product guidelines. Typically, the flooring is considered waterproof for about one day. After that time, it can become damaged.
Installation
Usually, planks are installed as a floating floor. Planks click and lock together so no attachment to the subfloor is needed. Underlayment acts as a base for the planks. Most tiles are installed in the same manner although numerous brands are designed to be glued to the subfloor. Most brands can be installed over existing hard surface flooring.
