About Laminate Flooring Laminate floors
offer the look of a wood or stone floor. Laminate flooring is a lot like Formica countertops
— a combination of layers of wood and melamine plastic that imitate real wood,
stone or other textures. What you see when you look at laminate flooring is actually
a picture of real wood or stone that has been placed on top of the floor and covered
with ultra-strong, clear plastic. Laminate flooring is available in planks, strips and
tiles. Traditionally, it is glued into place, but in the past few years manufacturers
have introduced some glueless and pre-glued formats that cut installation time in half!
Laminate flooring is installed on top of your existing floor. If you choose a glueless
floor, you can even remove the floor and take it with you when you move. One of the
few disadvantages to laminate flooring is that it cannot be refinished, sanded or stripped.
However, with some of the strongest warranties in the flooring industry, there's not
much chance you'll ever need to replace your laminate floor.
Care and Maintenance Laminate flooring requires virtually no maintenance and cleaning up spills is
easy. Cleaning is usually a breeze and generally does not require expensive cleaning
products.
Cleaning Tips
For major cleanup, mop with ammonia or a mixture of vinegar and water.
Don’t use conventional soap-based cleaners (if possible use citrus based
cleaners).
Don’t use scouring powder, steel wool, or wax strippers.
