Reason for Reporting
Laminate and vinyl flooring services involve installing, repairing, and maintaining these popular floor coverings.
Laminate flooring is a multi-layered synthetic product, often mimicking wood or stone, known for its durability and ease of cleaning. Vinyl flooring, made from synthetic materials like PVC, is celebrated for its waterproof properties and versatility in design, including luxury vinyl planks (LVP) that simulate wood or tile.

Durability:
Both laminate and vinyl are durable, but vinyl is often favored for high-traffic areas and spaces with potential for spills or moisture.
Cost:
Laminate is generally more affordable, while luxury vinyl options can be pricier.
Installation:
Both are relatively easy to install, but vinyl's ease of installation often makes it a DIY-friendly option
.
Aesthetics:
Both offer a wide range of styles and finishes, with laminate often mimicking wood and vinyl offering realistic tile or wood looks.
