Laminate flooring FAQ

 

What is laminate flooring?

Laminate flooring is a versatile and durable solution made from multiple layers of synthetic materials fused through a lamination process. The top layer is a high-resolution photographic image that mimics the appearance of natural wood, stone, or other materials, providing aesthetic appeal at a more affordable price. At Giles Carpets, we have a gorgeous selection of laminate that mimics the high-end, chic look of real hardwood floors.

What applications is laminate flooring ideal for?

Laminate flooring suits several different applications. Some of the most popular laminate flooring applications include:

  • Residential spaces like living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways.
  • Commercial settings such as offices and retail spaces.
  • Areas with moderate foot traffic due to its durability and scratch-resistant properties.
  • Any space where a realistic wood or stone look is desired without the high cost and maintenance of natural materials.

Can laminate be installed over existing flooring?

Yes, you can install laminate over existing flooring, including surfaces like concrete, vinyl, tile, and hardwood, provided the surface is clean, dry, and level. Following the manufacturer's guidelines ensures proper installation and avoids potential issues.

How do I maintain laminate flooring?

Regular maintenance keeps your laminate flooring looking its best, but fortunately, maintenance is minimal. To keep your floor in top shape:

  • Regularly sweep or vacuum the floor to remove dust and debris.
  • Use a damp mop and a specialised mild laminate cleaner.
  • Avoid excessive water or steam cleaning, as moisture can damage the laminate.
  • Add felt pads under furniture legs to avoid scratches.

How does the cost of laminate compare to other flooring materials?

Home and business owners praise laminate flooring for its affordability, especially compared to the materials it mimics, such as pricey hardwood floors. Laminate offers excellent value for money as it’s durable, easy to install, and has incredibly low maintenance requirements while providing similar visual appeal to more expensive materials.

Does Giles Carpets’ laminate flooring come with a warranty?

Yes, we offer laminate flooring backed by warranties, ranging from 5-year commercial warranties to 20-year residential warranties. Check out the specific product page or contact Giles Carpets for the exact duration and coverage details.
