Laminate Flooring

Article Category: Advice

Author Name: Ginger Jackson

When a multi-layer synthetic flooring product is fused with a lamination process the result is laminate flooring. Laminate flooring is able to simulate wood by having a photographic layer appear under a clear protective layer. There is an inner core layer that is made up of melamine resin and fiber board materials. Often times there is a glue backing to make installation easier on the person installing the laminate flooring. Laminate flooring will cost a person less money than making the decision to install hardwood floors. It is also more durable than installing carpet. It is easy for a person to install laminate flooring themselves, or hire another individual to perform the task.

Laminate flooring is packaged by the plank and easily snaps together for installation. Laminate flooring typically floats on top of the subfloor with a film underlayment. It is extremely important to leave a gap around the edges of laminate flooring by the baseboard to allow for expansion. For a neater finish, it is important to remove the baseboards before laying laminate flooring and then replace them when finished. After a person has installed laminate flooring, just like any other flooring, it is important to clean it on a regular basis. In high traffic areas small pebbles may scratch the laminate flooring over time and by cleaning and sweeping regularly this will prevent the laminate flooring from becoming ruined.

If the laminate flooring is being installed near an outside doorway, kitchen or bathroom, it is important to keep the laminate flooring as dry as possible. If the laminate flooring is exposed to too much moisture it may warp or cause the planks to swell. Some brands of laminate flooring may be equipped with water-resistant coatings to prevent this from happening. It is important to clean up water spills quickly to prevent any warping of the laminate floors to occur. After you have installed your laminate flooring, one piece of advice is to put felt pads on the bottoms of couches, chairs and stands to prevent the flooring to become scratched. Placing a pad underneath of a rug is also important to prevent minor scratching from occurring.

If you notice that after a while the planks begin to separate, it is important to use the proper tool to snap them back together to prevent dirt and dust from gathering in-between the planks. It is important to keep in mind that often the material that is in laminate flooring also contains formaldehyde which may cause health issues. Many companies use a chemical process to reduce air transmissions of formaldehyde to prevent health issues from occurring. Laminate flooring was invented in the late seventies and has improved a great deal over time.
