Water Resistant Laminate
Water resistant laminate can take a wet towel tossed down after the beach or a spilled glass of lemonade, as long as puddles are wiped soon. We check the subfloor first.

Every laminate floor we install rides on foam, quieting footsteps and softening the step. On basement concrete, plastic sheeting lies beneath the foam to block rising moisture.
We bring a case of laminate samples to the estimate. Set a few planks near your sofa, beside the kitchen island and along the sunny side of the room, then choose the one that fits.
Our crew guarantees laminate workmanship for twelve months, the brand that makes the planks warrants its product, and only licensed, insured Brazil Floors staff touch your home.



It can work. Laminate handles sandy feet and light use well, but an unheated cottage with big humidity swings needs a vapor barrier and a product rated for those conditions, which we help you choose.
We bill $1.99/Sq Ft in labor, foam free. If carpet must be pulled up beforehand, plan on about $1.00/Sq Ft for that, and the estimate spells out every line.
Water resistant lines tolerate drips and small puddles for a while if you dry them promptly. For a mudroom that floods with rain or snowmelt, we usually point people toward vinyl plank.
Its hard top surface resists claws better than many hardwood finishes. A Labrador fresh from the beach is fine, and felt under chair legs keeps the floor looking sharp.
Either works. Bring your own and pay $1.99/Sq Ft for labor, or let us supply it at contractor pricing and we will come in below any written laminate quote.
Usually, yes, when what lies underneath is level and secure. Carpet always comes up first, while firmly set tile or old hardwood can serve as a base.
You pay for labor once our installers show up at the house, and for the laminate itself when the cartons are delivered. Nothing is owed up front.
It is a flat $250. We carry sofas, beds and dressers into another room, then set everything back where it lives after the planks are down.
