Laminate Flooring FAQ's

What is Laminate flooring?

Laminate flooring is very different from wood flooring. Although in some instances they look similar, they are in fact very different. Laminate flooring has the printed effect of wood or stone. It is also more suitable for homeowners who have pets and clean very frequently because it is very easily maintained.

The thickness of our laminate flooring, here at Flooring365, ranges between 7mm and 14mm.

Laminate is not only easy to clean, but budget-friendly too since it's one of the least expensive flooring options. With the added benefit of click together joints, the buyers could install this themselves without having to pay a floorer.

As flooring experts, we would recommend laminate flooring for all areas of the house, apart from bathrooms.

Laminate Flooring Finishes & Treatments

Since laminate flooring has a printed image layer, there is a wider variety of finishes available. Some aim to simulate solid wood, and others are less conventional.

Stone Effect

Laminate flooring can also be made to look like stone tiles, providing endless design options.

Embossed / Wood Grain

An embossed finish attempts to simulate the texture of the wood (or stone) image that is printed on the flooring; rather than being smooth, these boards have the same texture you would feel on the surface of solid wood or stone tiles.

Matt

Matt is a smooth, clear finish on top of the printed image; because it is matt there is minimal reflection.

Extra Matt

Extra matt attempts to have zero reflection, giving the flooring a slightly chalky appearance. This type of finish is also much less likely to show scratches and other small imperfections.

Silk

This finish creates a subtle shine, but without all the maintenance and upkeep of a high gloss floor. Silk is a light gloss finish, somewhere in between our silk matt, and smooth finishes.

Silk Matt

If you can’t decide between silk or matt, then this finish is for you. Silk matt has a mixture of gloss and no gloss areas. The varying gloss level gives it a contrast that accentuates the texture of the floor.

Silverfrost

This finish highlights the flooring texture by running a subtle silvery tone through the grains.

Smooth

Smooth does not have a deep grain structure, instead, it is a more uniform, gloss finish.  This type of flooring will look great in calculated, modern rooms.

Handscraped

A handscraped finish imitates the way solid wood flooring was traditionally finished before specialised machines could make perfect finishes. The imperfections in the finish add character in the way that it reflects light.

Rustic

This type of finish looks to imitate the worn character of older wood flooring, perfect for rooms that you want to look cosy and lived in.

Textured

This is a broad term for finishes that have some form of texture; like an embossed finish, while not quite as worn as a rustic or handscraped finish.

Laminate Flooring Installation Methods

Click System

Our laminate flooring uses a click system; this is a glue-free, interlocking fitting system, which can be laid relatively easily on top of a floating floor. Because of its ease of use, laminate flooring is the perfect choice for people who are looking to install their flooring themselves.

Underlay

Underlay is a layer of material that goes between the floor and the subfloor, evening out the surface and providing numerous benefits such as sound absorption, insulation, and improved underfoot feel. It is important that you have underlay with laminate flooring because it is not as strong and durable as other flooring types. Having underlay will help to keep your laminate in place securely and limit the chances of damage to your flooring as well as providing an even surface.
