What 12 mm laminate is made of

A laminate board is a stack: a clear wear layer, a printed wood-look layer, a dense core that gives it the thickness, and on these boards a pad already bonded underneath.

Laminate plank layers pulled apart: wear layer, design layer, core and attached pad

12 mmMost boards in the line, such as Nobelford, Larkmead and Virgil Island Oak.

10 mmRockwater Oak, a slightly thinner board.

Pad attachedThe listings show a 2 mm attached pad on the 12 mm boards.

WaterproofEvery current board is sold as waterproof laminate.

How many rows across your room

Installers avoid a thin sliver in the last row. Type the room’s width across the boards; if the last row comes out narrow, cut the first row down so both edge rows match.

Board widths from the listings: 7.56 in. for Nobelford, Larkmead, King’s Cottage and Skaggs Island; 8 to 8.03 in. for Virgil Island, Chamblee Tuck and Simsbury Glen.

Laminate questions

Short answers first, then where to read more.

Is 12 mm laminate better than 10 mm?

Thicker boards feel more solid underfoot and bridge small dips in the subfloor better.

Both are click-lock and waterproof in this line.

Do I need underlayment?

The 12 mm boards have a pad attached, so a separate one isn’t needed on most floors.

Follow the box for concrete and moisture barriers.

Can it go in a bathroom?

It’s sold as waterproof.

For a full bath with daily splashes, vinyl plank is the safer choice.

Where’s a grey oak laminate?

Gray tones change by season.

Search “gray” on the laminate listings, or see the vinyl colors such as Pelican Gray.
