FAQs
  • Laminate flooring is a type of multi-layer synthetic flooring designed to look like real wood, stone, or tile. It consists of a high-density fibreboard core, a moisture-resistant backing layer, and a printed decorative layer topped with a clear protective coating. Laminate offers a durable and affordable alternative to hardwood or natural stone flooring.
  • Most standard laminate flooring is water-resistant but not waterproof. Our laminate flooring's protective coating and backing layer help prevent moisture from seeping in. However, you still need to clean up any standing water promptly to prevent damage over time. Some ranges of our laminate flooring have a 48-72 hour water resistant feature.

  • Here are some tips for cleaning your laminate flooring:

    • Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and debris
    • Use a damp mop with a laminate-specific cleaner for deeper cleaning
    • Avoid excessive water or harsh chemicals, which can damage the surface
    • Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining
    • Place mats at entryways to reduce tracked-in dirt and moisture

  • The choice of the best underlay for laminate flooring depends on several factors. You can find our range of Laminate Flooring Underlays on our Laminate Floor Underlays Page here.
    You can also speak to your in store experts about your project and they can advise on the most suitable Underlay for Laminate Flooring for your project. 

  • It's generally not recommended to install laminate flooring directly over carpet. The carpet's soft and uneven surface can cause the laminate planks to become unstable and shift over time, leading to cracks or separations. For the best results, the existing carpet should be removed, and the subfloor should be prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions before installing laminate.

  • Our laminate flooring is a versatile option suitable for various rooms in your home. In our experience, the most popular rooms to use laminate flooring are:

    • Kitchens
    • Bathrooms
    • Bedrooms
    • Living rooms

  • Our laminate flooring collection offers a wide variety of colours to suit any décor preference. The most popular colours we offer are grey, white, black, beige, and brown. 

    All of these colours are very versatile and will fit right at home in pretty much any room. Grey, beige, and brown are great choices for living rooms and bedrooms. While white and black are popular for kitchens and bathrooms.

Herringbone Laminate FAQ's

Herringbone is a pattern often used for flooring. It’s characterised by a series of rectangular pieces arranged in a v-shaped pattern, creating a chevron-like design.

Although “herringbone” can often be used interchangeably with parquet flooring, it’s actually a type of parquet flooring and is one of our most popular laminate flooring designs.

This classic design has stood the test of time, offering a stylish and visually appealing look to floors.

Parquet flooring is a type of flooring that features geometric patterns created by arranging small wood pieces in various designs, such as herringbone.

Laminate flooring is one of the easiest flooring solutions to install in your home, and this is still true for our herringbone laminate despite its intricate design. However we do recommend having your flooring installed by our expert fitters.

No, not all laminates are suitable for a herringbone pattern. Traditional herringbone wood flooring is made by connecting individual planks together. But our herringbone laminate already comes in its angled design, meaning you just need to connect different pieces together for the famous chevron pattern.

Herringbone flooring provides a timeless and stylish design for almost every room in your home. In our experience, the most popular rooms for herringbone are bedrooms, living rooms, and kitchens.
