Stronger Locking
The locking system is stronger as it is thicker.
Better to Heavy Traffic
Thicker laminate flooring can stand up better to heavy traffic and is less likely to be warped or damaged from everyday use.
Quality

Acclimating planks

It's Essential to Wait 48 Hours

After purchased your flooring, We recommended that new laminate be stored in the intended room for 48 hours. This will help the planks become accustomed to the humidity and atmosphere before they are installed.

Water-Resistant vs. Waterproof

Water resistance in laminate flooring refers to the ability of the flooring material to withstand exposure to water without significant damage. Laminate flooring is composed of multiple layers, typically including a wear layer, a decorative layer, a core layer, and a backing layer. The wear layer is usually treated to resist moisture.

It’s important to note the distinction between water-resistant and waterproof. While water-resistant laminate can withstand some moisture, it is not impervious to water. Waterproof laminate, on the other hand, is designed to resist water penetration more effectively. Some laminate products are marketed as waterproof and may be suitable for areas prone to spills or high humidity.

Laminate flooring installation

Laminate flooring installation typically follows industry standards. Here are some general guidelines:

Subfloor Preparation
Ensuring the subfloor is clean, flat, dry, and structurally sound. Subfloor irregularities can affect the laminate’s integrity and appearance.
Acclimation
Allowing the laminate to acclimate to the room’s temperature and humidity for at least 48 hours before installation. This helps prevent expansion or contraction after installation.
Expansion Gaps
Leaving expansion gaps around the perimeter of the room to accommodate natural expansion and contraction of the laminate due to temperature and humidity changes. The recommended gap is usually around 1/4 inch.
Underlayment
Installing underlayment material beneath the laminate to provide cushioning, sound absorption, and moisture protection.
Direction
Laying the laminate planks parallel to the longest wall in the room to create an aesthetically pleasing appearance. However, in some cases, the layout may need to be adjusted based on the room’s dimensions and layout.
Staggering
Staggering end joints of adjacent rows to create a more stable and visually appealing floor. The specific staggering pattern may vary depending on the manufacturer’s recommendations.
