It used to be that you could either afford the beauty and style of hardwood flooring or you had to settle for carpet or linoleum. With the advent of laminate flooring, this is no longer true. While laminate flooring has its own advantages and disadvantages, often homeowners choose this flooring as a cheaper alternative to wood flooring. In San Antonio, laminate flooring has also taken hold as homeowners continue to realize the beauty and affordability of this flooring material.
Advantages
Laminate flooring is easier to install, requires less maintenance, and has greater versatility than wood. You can choose a color and texture in laminate that has the appearance of a particularly expensive exotic wood species without raising the cost. Additionally, laminate flooring repairs are relatively simple. In fact, you can purchase a few extra planks during the initial installation just in case something happens. When hardwood floors get damaged, it's not uncommon that the entire floor needs to be refinished.
Laminate Flooring in San Antonio
So, how can you decide if laminate flooring is right for your home? If you love the look and texture of wood floors, but don't have the monetary resources, here's your answer. If you have a pet that likes to be outside and track paw prints on your floor, if you have a rambunctious child that is likely to spill something on your floor, if you want to install this floor in a high traffic area, you might also want to consider the low maintenance, low risk options of laminate flooring for your San Antonio home.
If you're considering flooring for your entire home, it's not a bad idea to mix up, too. Put laminate flooring in public areas where you have less control. Install hardwood flooring in your master bedroom where you can enjoy the authenticity and the warmth of real wood on your feet when you go to bed and when you wake up in the morning.
Cost
So, how much money do you stand to save? HomeAdvisor gathers information from all the home improvement projects we process including both hardwood flooring and laminate flooring in San Antonio. Here's what we know: The average hardwood flooring projects costs a little over $5,000 while laminate flooring comes in under $4,000. This doesn't mean your project has to cost this much or that it won't cost more. It can cost as little as $1,000 or over $10,000 for multiple rooms or unusually large areas. Chances are you'll save $1,000 or more by choosing laminate (perhaps a little less for smaller projects, a little more for bigger ones).
Project Length
As easy as it is to install laminate flooring, you might expect project lengths to be dramatically shorter. We actually find this not to be the case. The average project length for San Antonio laminate flooring is just under a week, while hardwood flooring takes just over a week. Of course, paying a San Antonio flooring contractor for even a few extra days worth of labor can add up quickly. Plus, you won't have the same level of inconvenience placed on your home during construction. Still, choose your contractor carefully. Laminate flooring is only as good as its installation and professional contractors can help you choose amongst the more than 30 laminate flooring companies and their product lines.
