Laminate

Laminate Flooring That Changes the Game

At Brian’s Flooring & Design, we know the perfect floor is all about the details. That’s why our laminate flooring collection showcases today’s most popular colors—think warm, earthy, and neutral tones like natural wood, white oak, golden brown, rich dark shades, and versatile greige. Choose from classic straight-lay patterns for timeless appeal, elegant herringbone for a touch of sophistication, diagonal layouts for added dimension, or random-width designs that exude classic charm.

Our laminate options come in a range of widths between 3” to 7”, with many styles offering mixed lengths for even greater versatility. Plus, many of our laminates feature an attached pad for added comfort, sound reduction, and a smoother installation process. And here’s the best part—we don’t sell just any laminate flooring; we offer the best of the best, including exclusive lines you won’t find anywhere else. When you shop with Brian’s, you’re not just choosing a floor—you’re making a statement.

Laminate or Engineered?

Let's Settle the Debate

Water Resistance: Laminate flooring at Brian’s Flooring & Design is 72-hour water-resistant, ideal for kitchens, entryways, and other moisture-prone areas. Engineered wood, while more water-tolerant than solid hardwood, can still swell or warp with prolonged exposure to moisture.

Appearance: Engineered wood gives you the authentic beauty of natural hardwood, including its unique grain and texture. Laminate offers the same looks as wood at a lower cost, with impressive designs that can be nearly indistinguishable from the real thing.

Longevity: Depending on the thickness of the veneer layer of engineered wood, it can be refinished once or twice, giving it a longer lifespan. Laminate, on the other hand, cannot be refinished but because of its scratch-resistant surface, it doesn’t need to be.

Price: Laminate is generally more budget-friendly than engineered wood, making it a great option for homeowners who want the look of hardwood without the hardwood price tag.

Choosing between laminate and engineered wood depends on your needs, lifestyle, and budget. At Brian’s Flooring & Design, we’re here to help you pick the perfect flooring to fit your home and life.

At Brian’s Flooring & Design, we’ve made sure our laminate flooring works as hard as you do—because great floors shouldn’t just survive life’s messes; they should thrive in them.

Built to Keep Up

Our Laminate Flooring Styles Work As Hard As You

Life happens fast, but our laminate flooring is built to keep up—and look good while doing it. Up to five times more scratch-resistant than hardwood, laminate can handle everything from energetic pets to high heels (even the occasional impromptu dance party). It’s also impact-resistant, making it the perfect choice for busy households full of kids, pets, and plenty of action.

While laminate is water-resistant, it’s not waterproof—because here’s a little-known secret: no flooring is truly waterproof. But don’t worry! Brian’s Flooring & Design offers styles with 72-hour water resistance, giving you plenty of time to clean up spills before they become a problem. With the right underlayment, proper installation, and sealed edges, your laminate flooring will stand up to moisture and stay beautiful for years.

And let’s not forget comfort! Today’s laminate doesn’t just look incredible—it’s designed to soften the sound of every step, creating a quieter, cozier home. Whether it’s a high-traffic hallway or a lively living room, laminate delivers the durability you need without compromising on style or comfort.
