Your Laminate Flooring Questions Answered
How much does laminate flooring cost in South Africa?
Pricing depends on the range you choose, the size of the area, and the condition of your existing floor. We carry ranges to suit every budget, from cost-effective standard laminates through to premium waterproof options. We provide a fixed, written quote after a free on-site measurement so there are no surprises.
Is laminate flooring waterproof?
Standard laminate is water-resistant but not fully waterproof. Our waterproof laminate ranges use a 100% waterproof core (often called SPC or hybrid) and are safe for kitchens, bathrooms and high-moisture areas. We’ll recommend the right range for each room when we visit.
How long does laminate flooring installation take?
For an average 3-bedroom home, installation typically takes 1–2 days once materials are on site. Larger or more complex jobs may take 3–4 days. We’ll give you a clear timeline in your written quote.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. Our laminate ranges come with manufacturer guarantees of up to 25 years on the product, plus our own 2-year workmanship guarantee on every installation.
Can you install over my existing tiles or floor?
In most cases, yes, provided the surface is level and stable. We’ll assess this during the free measurement and advise honestly whether any sub-floor prep is needed.
Do you service Alberton and surrounding areas?
Yes. Alberton is one of our core service areas. We also cover Sandton, Bedfordview, Randburg, the East Rand, JHB South and broader Johannesburg.
What’s the difference between laminate and real wooden flooring?
Real wooden flooring (engineered or solid) is made from actual timber and costs significantly more. Laminate is a composite product with a high-resolution photographic layer of wood under a tough wear-coat. Modern premium laminates are visually almost indistinguishable from real wood, and far more practical for South African homes.
