Frequently Asked Questions – Laminate Flooring at OC Flooring

Laminate flooring offers several advantages over hardwood, including:

  • Cost-effectiveness: Laminate delivers the look of hardwood at roughly half the cost, making it a practical choice for larger renovation projects or rental properties.
  • Enhanced durability: The wear layer on laminate resists everyday scratches, stains, and fading better than most hardwood finishes, which matters in high-traffic households.
  • Ease of maintenance: Laminate requires no sanding, refinishing, or special treatments — regular sweeping and occasional damp mopping is all it needs to stay in good shape.

In Ottawa’s climate, laminate also acclimates well to indoor temperature ranges, making it a stable option for above-grade rooms throughout the year. 

Today’s laminate flooring has come a long way. Many modern laminate products now feature highly water-resistant, and in some cases waterproof, surface technology, making them an excellent choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and even many basements when the proper product is selected. In fact, we often recommend laminate over luxury vinyl plank because it offers outstanding durability, excellent scratch resistance, and a more realistic wood feel underfoot. The key is choosing the right laminate for the space and ensuring the subfloor is dry and suitable for installation. Our team can help you determine the best option for your home during a free in-home estimate.

Both laminate and luxury vinyl plank are durable, low-maintenance flooring options, but each has its strengths. Laminate is generally more scratch and dent resistant, making it an excellent choice for busy households with kids and pets. It also offers a realistic wood look and feel thanks to its rigid core and textured surface. Luxury vinyl plank has the advantage when it comes to standing water, but today’s premium laminate products feature highly water-resistant, and in some cases waterproof, surfaces that perform exceptionally well in kitchens, bathrooms, and many basements. Both products are easy to clean with regular sweeping and occasional damp mopping. Choosing between them often comes down to your home’s specific needs, and our team can help you select the best option during a free in-home estimate.

With proper care and maintenance, laminate flooring can last between 10 to 25 years. The longevity of your laminate floor depends on factors such as the quality of the product, the level of foot traffic, and how well it is maintained.

While laminate flooring is designed for relatively simple installation, we recommend professional installation for optimal results. Professional installers ensure that the flooring is properly aligned, securely fitted, and protected against potential moisture infiltration.

Maintaining laminate flooring is simple:

  • Regular sweeping or vacuuming to remove dust and debris
  • Occasional damp mopping with a laminate-specific cleaner for thorough cleaning
  • Avoid using excessive water or harsh cleaning agents, as these can damage the surface

Following these simple steps will help maintain the appearance and integrity of your laminate floors.

Yes, laminate flooring typically requires an underlayment to provide cushioning, reduce noise transmission, and protect against moisture. The specific type of underlayment needed depends on the laminate product and the condition of the subfloor. Our flooring experts can assist you in selecting the appropriate underlayment to complement your chosen laminate flooring.
