Enjoying Your New Floor

What to expect at installation and beyond.

Choosing a glueless laminate floor that installs by clicking planks together makes for faster installation and easier repairs. Laminate floors are installed using a “floating floor system” in which a padded underlayment (either separate or pre-attached) sits between the sub floor and the laminate planks.

  • The planks sit directly on the underlayment and are not anchored to the sub floor on the bottom but rather anchored by the edges.
  • When walked upon, laminate floors with attached underlayment will produce the most natural sound.
  • Slight ridging or peaking where planks are joined together may occur. This is normal and nothing for you to be concerned about.

Get on top of the bottom line.

Know the entire cost of ownership. The “cost per square foot” of your laminate floor is just one component of the entire project cost. To ensure there are no surprises, and the laminate you select fits within your overall project budget, be sure to ask us to provide a the total cost for your floor-covering project.
