Laminate Floor Inspiration
Choosing the right flooring can transform a room. From waterproof laminate floor, ideal for kitchens and bathrooms, to the high gloss version that adds a touch of elegance to living spaces, our flooring selection caters to all preferences.
What is Laminate Flooring?
Laminate flooring is the go-to choice for many households because it offers the look and texture of natural wood without the price tag or upkeep. It’s durable, stylish, and incredibly easy to live with. Whether you’re drawn to a modern grey floor or prefer the warmth of oak, there’s an option to suit every taste.
Here at Drumm Carpentry, we stock a wide selection rated by AC (Abrasion Class) levels, so you can find the right durability for your needs:
- AC 3 (Class 23/31): Ideal for living rooms and bedrooms.
- AC 4 (Class 32): Suitable for homes and light commercial spaces.
- AC 5 (Class 33): A solid choice for busier commercial areas.
- AC 6 (Class 34): Built for heavy footfall, but perfect for high-traffic family homes too.
With our expert help, you’ll find the best laminate floor to suit your home and lifestyle.
Explore Our Laminate Floor Range
We supply and install an extensive collection of laminate flooring to suit a variety of tastes, room types, and budgets. From classic planks to modern patterns, each range is carefully selected for quality, durability, and style.
Herringbone Laminate
For a timeless design that adds texture and interest to any room, our herringbone laminate flooring is a standout choice. These boards click into place to create a classic zigzag pattern and come in a range of finishes, from soft oak tones to deeper, richer hues. Our premium options, like the 12mm AC6 Alsafloor Herringbone, offer scratch resistance and moisture protection, making them suitable for heavy footfall.
Wide & Long Laminate Planks
Ideal for creating a more open feel in living spaces, wide and long plank laminates are perfect for modern homes. Ranges like the 9mm Tarkett Long Board or the 8mm Classen collection come in neutral tones with realistic textures and embossed finishes. They work well in open-plan rooms or anywhere you want a seamless and spacious look.

Water-Resistant Laminate
If you’re looking for flooring that can handle the demands of kitchens, hallways, or even bathrooms, water-resistant laminate is a practical option. Built to repel everyday moisture, these ranges combine function with the look of natural wood. They’re also easy to clean and ideal for families or rental properties.
High Durability Laminate Options (AC4–AC6)
For areas that see heavier use like entryways, commercial spaces, or busy homes, our high-durability laminate floors are designed to last. Available in 12mm thickness with AC4 to AC6 ratings, these boards resist scuffs and dents while maintaining their finish. Collections like the Shamrock or Kwic Klic ranges also offer quick-install systems for efficient fitting.

What Our Customers Say
Frequently Asked Questions about Laminate Floors
How much should I expect to pay for laminate floor installation?
Laminate flooring installation costs depend on the size of the area, the type of floor you choose, and whether any preparation work is needed. We always aim to keep things transparent and affordable. Contact us for a free quote tailored to your home.
What goes underneath laminate flooring?
Laminate flooring typically needs underlay for cushioning and soundproofing. Depending on your room, we might also use moisture barriers, especially for waterproof laminate flooring options in kitchens or bathrooms. Our team will make sure your floor is fitted properly from the ground up.
What is the downside of laminate flooring?
While laminate floors are durable and low maintenance, they can be less warm underfoot than real wood and may not be suitable for very wet areas unless you opt for waterproof laminate flooring. That said, for most homes, it offers the perfect blend of style, strength, and affordability.
How to clean laminate floors?
A simple sweep and a slightly damp mop are usually all you need. Avoid soaking the floor or using abrasive cleaners. The good news is that most laminate wood flooring is stain-resistant and designed to be easy to look after.
