Another flooring question

Laminate flooring works very good in kitchens and bathrooms. I would also recommend the Pergo or other brand that has the underlayment in (for ease and speed)....although puting down the underlayment is not that hard and just requires good measuement and cutting off the roll. Laminate is not nailed or glued so it is very quick to lay. Also, it is very forgiving…and can be laid over pretty much every surface.

I have done/refurbed several kitchens/bathrooms with laminates and they are still going good…after many years of hard use. I have only had to repair one layup and that was due to a leaking pipe from a shower that was running under the floor (not our fault – the owner was willing to pay for the work…but it being minor…and a customer goodwill scenario…we just did it for costs).

I have installed Pergo in my house and love it. Bellawood is a 3/4 ” thick wood product, not an engineered product. Also, shop some of your independent flooring stores. I got 800 sq ft of Canadian Maple 31/4” prefinished flooring for 0.99 a sq ft. The Pergo is in my kitchen, I installed the Travertine floor from them.

Thanks for the replies! I’ve been looking at the Pergo…Originally had a cheaper version in the master bedroom, and my two dogs had it scratched up inside of two months. They’re midsized, but I can’t imagine what it would do to a fairly high traffic’d living room/ galley kitchen if we put down a lesser quality laminate. One of the big reasons I have for making this such a tough decision since refinishing would stand up to the traffic.

You have to be careful with any of the laminate floors. The top layer is so thin, animal claws have a tendency to tear it up. Originally, Pergo was the best, but shop around, because some of the newer floors seem to be a little better.

if you want to used laminated floor, check carefully the top layer because that’s always the issue of laminated floor. though it’s like that i still appreciate it’s beauty because it captures my attention if a house has this kind of floor.

There are some great laminate products out there (I am partial to Armstrong), but you may want to be a bit cautious and make sure you full understand the difference between an engineered wood floor (which is a layer of “real” hardwood flooring seated on a plywood base) and laminate (which is a picture of hardwood flooring affixed to a press board base and coated with a wear layer.)

I personally, if budget allows, lean towards engineered hardwood as it tends to have a more natural feeling under foot and will allow you to list “hardwood floors” in your home listing when you go to sell your home (as opposed to laminate floors which are not considered hardwood)...that can be an important selling point (or at least it is here in Atlanta.)

Sadly we find that women are victims of physical violence 9 out of ten times. What we love about a women’s character is also her greatest weakness. We teach our women to be kind and gentle and yes trusting of the goodness of others. Violent offenders take advantage of this, and expect little or no resistance from a woman. This need not be the case, if you are willing to prepare yourself. savage axis 22-250
