Can Hardwood Flooring Be Installed Over Laminate?

Are you looking to upgrade your flooring but don't want to go through the hassle of removing your existing laminate flooring? You're in luck! Installing hardwood flooring over laminate is a great way to get the look and feel of real wood without the extra work. With the new Floorté waterproof hardwood line from Shaw Floors, it's now possible to install real wood floors directly on top of existing laminate floors without any additional preparation or demolition work. All you need is a clean and level surface. This makes it a much faster and more economical option than replacing the entire floor.

For example, in my Fixer Top house from the eighties, I was able to install Floorté hardwood floors directly on top of two layers of laminate flooring. The first layer was partially removed around the edges of the kitchen cabinets and walls, but I was still able to install the new hardwood floors without any additional preparation. Installing hardwood over laminate is a great way to get the look and feel of real wood without having to go through the hassle of removing your existing flooring.
