Yes, laminate flooring is suitable for kitchens and bathrooms, as long as it’s designed or laid to be moisture resistant.
Laminate flooring is sensitive to moisture, so you should be careful when selecting the type of laminate for your bathroom or kitchen. Water-resistant laminate flooring that is suitable for a bathroom will include Aqua+ in the product description or logo on the packaging. This will also be suitable for kitchens, as they tend to be less exposed to water and moisture than bathrooms.
For kitchens, you may also be able to use regular laminate flooring, without the Aqua+ marking. When laying your laminate flooring, you should install it with tight seams and ensure the edges are properly sealed. This will help to protect against moisture.
Laminate is a popular type of flooring for kitchens and bathrooms, as it’s durable, simple to install and easy to clean. You can explore our range of laminate flooring online or in-store, including our range of water-resistant laminate flooring.
