What Is Laminate Flooring?
Unlike hardwood flooring, laminate floors are a synthetic product. They are made from four different layers, resulting in a durable material that looks great. Let’s take a closer look at these different components.
- Wear layer: This helps protect your floors from daily wear and tear, helping to prevent scratches and stains. The wear layer is easy to clean, even if you spill liquids on your laminate flooring.
- Decor layer: This is a printed image that gives your laminate flooring your desired look. Depending on what you choose, it might look like stone, wood, or tile, resulting in a beautiful design.
- Core layer: This component helps make your flooring dent-resistant, so it maintains its structure even years after installation.
- Backer layer: This final layer provides extra stability and support.
