Laminate flooring is a high-performance option that’s affordable, easy to install, and moisture- and heavy-traffic-resistant. Over the years, it’s evolved in both style and strength. While today’s laminate looks more upscale than ever, it’s still an affordable, low-maintenance option. We have the best laminate flooring selection at Anderson Carpet One Floor & Home in Rehoboth Beach, DE. If you're still searching for the best laminate options near you, your search ends right here in our local flooring store.
Modern laminate floors look more like natural hardwood than ever- but make no mistake. Laminate flooring and hardwood flooring are two different products. Although laminate planks and hardwood planks appear almost the same from the surface, they’re constructed differently.
Laminate flooring is designed to be enjoyed throughout your home and can be installed anywhere you'd install hardwood- and beyond. While most laminate floors are suitable for most areas of your home, we recommend waterproof laminate flooring for moisture-prone kitchens, mudrooms, and other such spaces. These are also perfect for entryways and basements. Some of the most popular spots for laminate flooring installation include:
It's important to note that while all laminate floors resist moisture, only select products are genuinely waterproof. Bonus: our most durable laminate collections work as well in low-traffic commercial settings as they do in your hectic home!
Sometimes, we're tempted to save a few bucks by watching a YouTube video, borrowing a set of tools, and installing our own floors.
Sounds easy, right? Well, not so fast. While installing laminate flooring is more straightforward than installing carpet or hardwood, it still requires plenty of patience, skill, and precision. Don't risk it: after all, this is your home we're talking about! Professional installation means you'll always stay covered under your product warranty. Our team of expert installers is skilled at installing all types of flooring, and we can quickly and efficiently complete your laminate installation.
A. Maintaining laminate flooring is simple. Regular sweeping or vacuuming (using a soft brush attachment) is usually sufficient to remove dust and debris. For a deeper clean, use a damp mop with a cleaning solution specifically made for laminate floors. Avoid using excessive water or steam mops, as moisture can damage the core of the planks.
A. Laminate flooring has a durable wear layer that protects it from scratches, scuffs, and fading, making it a great option for households with pets and children. However, it is not scratch-proof. To prevent scratches, it's wise to use felt pads under furniture legs and trim pets' nails regularly.
A. With proper care and installation, high-quality laminate flooring can last for 15-25 years or even longer. The lifespan of your floor will depend on the product's quality, the amount of foot traffic it endures, and how well it is maintained.
A. In many cases, yes. Laminate can often be installed as a "floating floor" over existing hard surfaces like vinyl, tile, or even some low-pile carpets, provided the original floor is clean, flat, and dry. However, it's always best to consult with one of our installation experts to ensure your subfloor is suitable.

"Wayne at Anderson Carpet One is the guy to talk to! We went through a variety of products and services, and he thought of the smallest details that my husband and I never even considered, and gave us a unique look for our house. This company has a lot of cool features that on one else has or can do for your house or business. Give them a call! You won’t regret it!" - Karen W.
"Excellent experience working with the staff at Anderson Carpet in Rehoboth. We had a glued floor the builder put in and they glued it inappropriately well. No one else in the area would touch the job. The team at Anderson not only understood what needed to be done and how to get it done, they were super easy to work with, communicated well, and got the job done quickly and efficiently. The installers were just as good at being timely, communicating well, and doing a great job. They cleaned up so well, I could only find a little dust when there should have been a lot based on the demo phase. Thank you so much!" - Chris T.
