Frequently Asked Questions about Laminate Flooring

  • Uniclic® is a revolutionary system for installing hybrid and laminate floors without using glue. The watertight locking system is precision machined to ensure no moisture can penetrate the joints. The planks can be clicked together simply, thanks to the ingenious shape of the tongue and groove.

  • A floating floor is installed by clicking planks together over the subfloor without being fixed down with glue or nails. This method allows the floor to “float” as one continuous surface, which helps it naturally expand and contract with changes in temperature and humidity. It also makes installation faster and cleaner, which is why laminate is one of the most popular floating floor systems for renovations and new builds.

  • The wear layer is the protective top surface of laminate flooring that helps shield it from scratches, scuffs, fading and general daily wear. It acts as a durable barrier over the decorative design layer, helping preserve the floor’s appearance in high-traffic areas. A quality wear layer plays an important role in extending the life and visual appeal of the flooring, particularly in busy family homes.
