Laminate Flooring
Laminate flooring is made up of multiple layers of composite material, topped with an ‘image’ layer designed to imitate the appearance of wood, stone or tile. The composite material generally consists of a wood fiberboard material and melamine resin, with the top layer covered in a layer of clear vinyl for durability.
Engineered Wood Flooring
Engineered wood flooring consists of two or more layers of wood adhered together to form a plank. Typically, engineered wood flooring uses a thin layer of a more expensive wood bonded to a core constructed from cheaper wood. The increased stability of engineered wood is achieved by running each layer at a 90° angle to the layer above. This stability makes it a universal product that can be installed over all types of subfloors above, below or on grade.
