Laminate flooring is ideal for Dubai's climate due to its excellent dimensional stability and resistance to temperature fluctuations. The high-density fiberboard core resists expansion and contraction better than solid wood. Modern laminates feature moisture-resistant technology, making them suitable for Dubai's humidity. They're also highly scratch-resistant, perfect for Dubai's sandy environment, and maintain their appearance without fading in strong sunlight when using UV-protected products.

Laminate flooring often outperforms real wood in high-traffic Dubai homes and commercial spaces. With an AC rating system (Abrasion Class), Dubai-appropriate laminates typically have AC4 (residential heavy commercial) or AC5 (commercial) ratings, meaning they can withstand heavy foot traffic, sand, and furniture movement. The aluminum oxide wear layer provides superior scratch resistance compared to wood finishes, and laminate doesn't require refinishing like wood does.

Our laminate installation process includes: 1) Subfloor inspection and leveling (crucial for click-lock systems), 2) Moisture barrier installation (essential in Dubai), 3) Underlayment fitting for sound insulation and comfort, 4) Precision cutting and click-lock installation, 5) Transition strips and finishing touches. For a typical Dubai apartment (2,000 sq.ft), installation takes 2-3 days. The floating installation method means no glue or nails are needed, minimizing dust and disruption.

Daily dry mopping or vacuuming with a soft brush attachment removes sand and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp mop with laminate-specific cleaner - never wet mop. The protective wear layer makes laminate incredibly easy to clean compared to wood. Use felt pads under furniture legs and door mats at entrances to trap sand. Avoid abrasive cleaners and steam mops, which can damage the surface. Laminate's non-porous surface prevents dust from embedding.

Yes, modern waterproof and water-resistant laminates are perfect for Dubai kitchens and some bathroom applications. Waterproof laminate features a fully impermeable core that prevents water penetration. For bathrooms, we recommend waterproof laminate with tight click-lock systems and proper sealing around edges. In kitchens, immediate spill cleanup is still advised. Always choose AC4 or AC5 rated laminates with enhanced moisture protection for these areas in Dubai homes.

We provide comprehensive warranties: 25-30 year residential warranties on premium laminate products, 10-15 year commercial warranties, and 5-year installation warranties. All warranties cover wear layer integrity, fading resistance (important for Dubai's sun), and moisture resistance. We offer regular maintenance checks to ensure warranty compliance. Unlike wood, laminate doesn't require refinishing, but damaged planks can be replaced individually if needed, keeping maintenance costs low.
