Laminate Floors From Expo Floors
Comments (5)I purchased flooring from Expo Floors that I discovered was clearly not first quality. Their thirty year warranty does not cover warped or squeaky floors (in very fine print). The people who run Expo Floors have absolutely no regard for their customers. Buy at your own risk, though they are really not worth the risk.

Comments (2)We have 20x20 rectified porcelain tile in main living room that flows into kitchen; in the next few weeks we are installing laminate in the dining room. We have an open floor plan & felt there would be too much tile between the living & dining room so are using the two different materials to break it up.

Comments (1)As long as the tile isn't a wood look, it's fine to mix tile and laminate. However, these days most people tend to prefer a single flooring throughout a home.

If you go for the two flooring materials, make sure that the whole floor will be the same level. In other words, make sure you account for the height of the tile now when putting in the laminate so that you don't create a tripping hazard and think about how you would do handle the transitions. Also, laminate floors tend to go through styles quickly, so I recommend buying some extra in case you need to patch or extend in the future....See MoreCAN I LAY LAMINATE FLOORING OVER AGGREGATE FLOORING?
Comments (4)In theory you can do so. The floor must be smooth (ahem...not gravelly), flat (no humps, bumps or valleys) and preferably level. The aggregate finish is a higher end finish than laminate. Care should be taken to maintain the aggregate. Your home's inherent value (part of what you paid for) is tied up in the aggregate flooring. To damage it while putting in a lower value floor will cause the value in the home to drop. Besides, laminate should not be installed in kitchens....See More- 16 years ago
