Laminate flooring vs vinyl plank flooring. If you have a tight budget, you may be weighing up the costs between the installation of laminate flooring and vinyl plank flooring. Going this route won't help you cut expenses necessarily.

Vinyl floors don't use the same click-in system as laminate flooring; they're directly glued to your sub-floor. Installers use glue directly on the timber or concrete sub-floor. There's a lot more labour required in the installation as it involves gluing and buffing to eradicate any gaps.

Laminate Flooring vs Vinyl Flooring. If your budget is limited, the best options for you are laminate and vinyl floorings.

These two options can both look like hardwood but at more affordable prices. Both Laminate and Vinyl flooring are made by a High Density Fiber (HDF), with a balancing melamine backing layer underneath and a unique decor layer on the top, covered by a transparent and clear wear layer on top. Vinyl flooring installed using a float, glue or loose lay methods while laminate flooring can only be installed using floating method.

Melbourne Laminate Flooring vs Engineered Flooring. Engineered wood floors are made from a thin layer of hardwood, which is then backed with several layers of softwood or plywood.

The multiple supporting layers are hidden and give the boards support and strength, whilst the surface you walk on is pure, unadulterated solid wood. This means that engineered floors look, feel and sound just like solid wood floors, but are a lot more versatile.

Installation laminate flooring. Laminate floors are reasonably easier to be installed compared to hardwood flooring. Laminate boards is packaged as a number of tongue and groove planks, which can be clicked into one another.

Sometimes glue backing is another option of installation. Installed laminate floors typically float over the sub-floor on top of a foam/film underlay; that provides moisture and sound reducing to the property. Skirting boards can be removed and then reinstalled after lying of the flooring is complete for a neater finish.

Laminate flooring has a lifetime which ranges between 15 years to 30 years. Engineered flooring, on the other hand, has the appearance of wood which has been used to make its top layer, but the bottom layer is HDF, MDF or a low grade wood.

Installation of laminate flooring is quite simple and easy to handle. However, engineered flooring takes more time and effort for installation which mostly requires professional assistance, whilst laminate flooring can be installed either by a professional or DIY'er.

Laminate flooring is installed using click and lock assembly, also known as a “floating floor” system, meaning it does not need to be nailed or glued down to the subfloor. This makes for an easy installation process for DIYers, but also means that the flooring material should NEVER get wet.

Moisture and humidity can severely damage laminate floors due to the sponge-like fiberboard layer and aerated gap underneath. Installation of laminate flooring in bathroom, kitchen or other high moisture areas is not recommended for this reason.
