The Not – So – Good – News : 

  • Laminate flooring shouldn’t be installed in laundry rooms and rooms with sump pumps or floor drains.
  • Installations on basement floors and slabs should include a moisture barrier.
  • Laminate flooring in the kitchen is okay as long as you’re diligent about cleaning up spills and splashes. 
  • Laminate flooring can’t be refinished the way real wood can, so once it’s worn out, it’ll have to be replaced. Check the warranty of the flooring you’re thinking of buying : products with higher warranties mean better quality and longer life. 
  • Look real, but it’s still a synthetic that feels unnaturally hard and can be harsh-sounding when walked on.
