Hardwood Versus Laminates - Updating your Floors
April 25th, 2008 8:12 PM

Many clients ask me whether it matters if they put laminate floors in the house instead of hardwood.  Although laminate is a lower cost alternative, I usually recommend hardwood if you can afford it.   Price them both out - installed - and you may be surprised that the price is not as hugely different as you thought.

Genuine hardwood floors are a valuable upgrade.  Pergo-like laminates can have a nice look, but won't add as much value to your home.
