Wood Comparison
ENGINEERED WOOD | LAMINATED WOOD | |
FEATURES | FEATURES | |
Appearance | The top layer consists of real hardwood, so it features the beauty of natural wood grain, with no pattern repeats. Every floor is unique. | The print layer can replicate a variety of wood looks, giving you more options and opportunities to get the look you want. |
Cost | Engineered wood is more affordable due to the plywood base, but not as affordable as laminated wood. | Laminated wood is the most affordable among all wood-look alternative floors. |
Installation | Nail, staple, glue or float | Click installation |
Resale | Increase the home value almost as much as solid hardwood flooring. | High-quality laminate can moderately increase the property value. |
Durability | Excellent, though not as scratch resistant as laminated wood | Protects from everyday wear and tear with a heavy-duty wear layer |
Moisture Resistance | Water resistant, but not waterproof | Water resistant, though some are waterproof from the top down |
Maintenance | Traps dirt more easily due to the textured surface | Easy to maintain and clean |
