A laminate
floor,is a picture of a hardwood floor. Usually the
floors are made of synthetic backing for its base and a
high-pressure laminate surface has been applied. These floors are
not repairable because you cannot resand them. Manufacturers
usually carry a 10-20 year wear layer guarantee. Some manufacturers
also offer a fade and stain warranty. Often these floors can be
clicked together for easy installation. A laminate floor is not a
real hardwood floor. It is only immitation, but can be
economical.
