Laminate Flooring Pros and Cons
While the pros of laminate floors are mentioned in the table above, the cons are as follows:
- The subfloor will need to be perfect before installing the laminate or the differences in leveling will show up in the laminate.
- Once chosen, that’s the finish you’ll live with because you can’t customize laminate flooring.
- If repairs are needed, you might have to replace the whole floor rather than the damaged area, so it all looks similar.
- You can only refinish a laminate floor a max of 3 times, depending on the thickness of the top layer.
- You can’t change the color with a custom stain.
- Resale value can be lower with laminate flooring vs. wood.
- Don’t install in humid areas like bathrooms, laundry rooms, and kitchens or they can warp.

Stone Laminate Flooring Cost
Stone-look laminate flooring ranges from $4.50 to $5 a square foot. It is much less common than the wood-look variety. It is available in a range of different colors but with few styles. Most give you the appearance of a tumbled or antiqued stone floor. The material is sold in click-lock tiles rather than planks. The tiles are usually larger and may have several “sizes” of “stone” on one tile. When clicked together, it imitates a stone tile floor in a repeating pattern.
