Laminate floors can come in the form of High Pressure Laminates which involve a double step process, and Direct Pressure Laminates that involve a single step fusing process. Always buy a High Pressure Laminate that may cost more but is long lasting, and comes with a superior inter locking system. These laminate floors also offer a greater variety of designs, and high quality of finishes. If you want laminate floor that look as close to a wood floor as possible, buy from the higher end of the price range. Before installing a laminate floor, make sure that the sub floor is smoothly laid out, and check each laminate plank for defects and damages.
Although laminate floors come with AC ratings that signify that they have passed all test requirements, you still need to take care of your laminate floor to avoid dents and stains. Look for an AC rating of 3 for your home, although a rating of AC 1 will do for a light use room like a bed room. Protect your floor by using rugs or carpets, and make sure that all floor coverings are made of color fast materials that won't stain your floor. Avoid rough carpet materials that may catch your floor. Never use house hold bleach, ammonia cleaners or detergents to clean your laminate floors. Use products that are recommended by your manufacturer.
I purchased laminate flooring already from simple floors.com I will need help to pull up carpet and lay down laminate floors on bottom floor (about 358 sq feet) and 3d floor (320sq feet). What prices could you provide? I willbe getting it delivered on January 2nd and will need it to be installed on the 5th. Thanks a bunch!!!

Hello! I am interested in getting an estimate for flooring installation in my condominium. I currently have prefinished floors/carpet/tile. I would like to replace all of the flooring with a dark stained, prefinished bamboo flooring. I live in midtown Atlanta. Please contact me for more details.
