Our laminate installation process
Laminate is installed as a floating floor, which means the planks click together and rest over the subfloor rather than being nailed or glued down. Done right, it is fast, quiet, and long-lasting.
Here is how we install it:
Underlay and vapour barrier. We lay the correct underlay to cushion the floor, soften sound, and protect against moisture rising from the subfloor. On concrete, a vapour barrier is important.
Expansion gaps. Laminate expands and contracts with temperature and humidity, so we leave a small gap at every wall. This stops buckling and keeps the floor flat over the seasons.
Plank layout. We plan the run so the pattern looks natural and seams stagger correctly across the room.
Transitions and finishing. We fit clean transitions at doorways and where laminate meets other floors, then cover the expansion gap with baseboards or quarter round.
We inspect and prep the subfloor first, because laminate follows the surface beneath it. Any dips or high spots are corrected so the finished floor sits flat.
AC durability ratings and where each fits
Laminate is graded by an AC (Abrasion Class) rating that tells you how much wear it can take. Matching the rating to the room means the floor lasts.
AC3 – suited to general residential use, such as bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways in a typical home.
AC4 – a step up for busier households and light commercial use, good for entries and high-traffic family spaces.
AC5 – the most wear-resistant, built for heavy commercial traffic, and more than most homes need.
We will help you pick a rating that matches how hard the room is used, so you are not overpaying or underspecifying.
Laminate vs luxury vinyl plank vs hardwood
Each floor has a place. A quick comparison helps you choose.
Laminate – budget-friendly, durable wear layer, realistic wood look. Suited to dry rooms. Most laminate is not waterproof.
Luxury vinyl plank – waterproof through the plank, which suits kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. See our vinyl plank flooring installation page.
Hardwood – real wood that can be refinished over decades, with the highest resale appeal. See our hardwood floor installation page.
If your rooms stay dry and you want a wood look without the hardwood price, laminate is often the right call.
Moisture considerations and rooms to avoid
Standard laminate is a wood-based product, so water is its weak point. Prolonged moisture can cause the boards to swell at the seams.
For that reason we usually steer homeowners away from laminate in full bathrooms, laundry rooms, and below-grade basements that see humidity. In those spaces, waterproof vinyl plank is the safer choice. Kitchens can work with laminate if spills are wiped promptly, though many homeowners prefer vinyl plank there too. We will give you a straight recommendation for each room during the measure.

Frequently asked questions
Is laminate flooring waterproof?
Most laminate is not fully waterproof. It handles the odd wiped-up spill, but not standing water or wet rooms. For bathrooms and basements we recommend waterproof vinyl plank instead.
Do I need underlay under laminate?
Yes. Underlay cushions the floor, reduces noise, and helps guard against moisture. On concrete subfloors a vapour barrier matters. We include the right underlay for your subfloor.
Can you install laminate I already bought?
Yes. We offer supply-and-install, and we are happy to install laminate you have already purchased. Old flooring removal, disposal, and furniture moving are available too.
How long does laminate installation take?
It depends on the size of the job and the prep needed. Many single-room installs finish in a day, while larger or multi-room jobs take longer. You get a timeline with your written quote.
