Laminate is best known for being budget-friendly, easy to care for, and simple to install. Laminate flooring beautifully mirrors natural hardwood, and can even copy stone and tile. At Jims Carpet One Floor & Home in Fort Dodge, Iowa, we are your locally owned flooring store with a great selection of laminate. Our expert team will help you find the right floor for your space. Some laminate flooring is made stronger than others, so ask one of our flooring specialists for their recommendation.

Laminate vs Hardwood

While laminate flooring looks and feels identical to hardwood, it’s actually very different. It’s made using layers of composite wood that are glued together. This structure creates stability and prevents the planks from warping with moisture exposure. Each laminate plank has a wood look image at the surface that gives the floor an upscale appearance.

Laminate Installation

Laminate is simple to install and incredibly robust. Thanks to its layered construction, you can use it in more moisture-prone areas than hardwood. It’s also great for handling the occasional spill or pet accident. You can install laminate throughout your home, including in finished basements.
