Great Floors & Great Impressions Are What We Are All About!
What is Laminate Flooring?
Laminate flooring is a man-made material often composed of a plastic or wood core and a surface layer that resembles metal, wood, stone, ceramic tiles or any other hard type of surface.
The laminate was created in the 1950s for commercial buildings because it was less expensive than natural materials. They have been around for years but have recently gained popularity among homeowners because they are less costly and easy to maintain.
What to Know About
Laminate Flooring
Why is Laminate Floor a Good Option?
Laminate flooring is a good option for many homeowners because it can be installed regardless of the layout style. It can be installed over existing flooring or laid from scratch to create new flooring. Most laminate floors come in one piece with adhesive backing, which gives you the freedom to place them in any room. It can also be cut to fit around objects, doorways and staircases with ease. Finally, it is often waterproof, so it is an excellent option for basements or bathrooms with high humidity levels.
What Rooms is Laminate Flooring Best Suited For?
You can use laminate flooring in high traffic areas like bedrooms, living rooms, hallways and kitchens, but you would want to avoid placing them in entryways where there may be wet conditions or high levels of foot traffic.
How is Laminate Flooring Installed?
It can even be installed in rooms without the proper subfloor, ideal for basement renovations or repairs after flooding. The installation process will require some preparation beforehand – this includes moving all objects and furniture, covering the flooring underneath, and finally laying down adhesive strips for installation. But once installed, laminate can look very realistic and beautiful with minimal upkeep.
If you decide to install laminate flooring yourself, it’s important to know what type of subfloor is underneath and if it can support the new laminate. If not, you may need to have it professionally installed. Never try to install laminate flooring in bathrooms or other high humidity areas because the moisture can cause expansion and damage to the installation over time.
How Should You Care for Laminate?
As with any flooring choice, there are some maintenance tips to keep in mind for laminate flooring.
Make sure to wipe up spills as soon as they happen to avoid stains and removal of grout detail. Don't drag heavy furniture across the floor or leave anything that emits heat (like furniture or baseboard heaters) against the walls where they might scorch the surface; this will also make the flooring less resistant to scratches. Also, avoid using abrasives like steel wool or scouring pads on laminate floors because they can scratch the surface. Using a soft cloth and warm water for cleaning is ideal.
Finally, never use any floor cleaners or finishes on laminate floors because they can severely damage the surface and reduce durability.

Footprints Floors - exceptional service and experience from start to finish. We met Ralph when he pulled into our driveway to personally evaluate and estimate the job. We instantly felt comfortable with Ralph who was easygoing, polite, and professional. Ralph spent significant time with us that afternoon and then provided us with a detailed estimate the next day. When the crew arrived to do the work they too were polite, professional, and did a fantastic job. The crew left our home in perfect condition and when complete they walked us through what they’d done and how we could best protect our floors moving forward. Ralph was in contact with us throughout the entire process and made sure we were satisfied with the quality of the work. We are grateful to Ralph and his crew for making the process easy, affordable, and most of all friendly. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Footprints Floors :)

Kim Andrews 11/1/24 — google -
For our demo and flooring install we wanted someone we could trust to do a quality job because they care and are attentive to detail, and that's exactly what we got with Ralph and his team. From the first interactions scheduling an estimate with Jessica, to working directly with Ralph and Darrell and Eisael on his team, the project went smoothly. Ralph and his team went above and beyond when the work we had planned for the stairs pivoted into a larger job. He always kept us up-to-date on progress and what to expect. We are very happy with the results!
Crystal Massuda 09/10/24 — google -
We were very pleased with Footprints quality of work and care for our home. Our kitchen hardwood had deep dark scratches thanks to our pup who sees squirrels in the yard . We never thought they would be gone and they are! The rest of the floor looks beautiful and as promised , little dust from the job. We will certainly use again for other hardwood refinishing needs. Highly recommend Marilyn , Scarborough , ME

Ralph and his team did a great job on our challenging project. It all looks great. Communication was first rate on timing and all aspects of the work. The 1st floor involved demo of ancient flooring and installation of new red oak with great attention to detail to preserve existing architectural flooring around the hearth. The 3rd floor involved rehab of existing flooring. A++ The work work crews were super polite and hard working.
Rob Ruesch 06/5/24 — google -
Would recommend Footprints Floors Maine based on our experience. We worked with Ralph mainly over phone and email as we were moving from out of state, Ralph was very easy to communicate with and responsive. Footprint Floors Maine was timely on the estimate appointment, delivery, and projection completion. We had a few existing hard wood floors, which they match well. The final cost was very close to estimate proposal. Ralph kept us updated with photos and updates throughout the project, completion and stopped by after we moved in to follow up.

Rachel Stadler 05/29/24 — google -
I hired Footprints Floors to refurbish a bedroom floor in an older home built in the 1850's-1900's. The old pine floor ended up beautiful. It is hard to believe that it is the same floor and not a newly laid floor. Ralph and his workers did a great job and worked professionally at all times. I would definitely hire this Company again and would recommend them to anyone. Great job people!

Excellent service from start to finish. Began with in person consult followed by in person follow up. Easy communication and I knew what to expect. Look at these stairs and the landing. The detail on how the wood was laid with a staggered design is gorgeous. Our dog approves too-she love a photo opp.

I am co-owner of a salon in downtown Portland and we needed our floors repaired. Ralph at Footprints Flooring was SO HELPFUL every step of the way. His response time was so quick and he always had very clear answers to our questions. He was knowledgeable and the floors look AMAZING. All of our clients comment on how nice our floors look. We cannot recommend this company highly enough!
Claire Noonan 03/13/24 — google -
Would definitely recommend Footprints Floors for anyone needing a tile or flooring project done. They were prompt with coming out to do the estimate and gave good advice on the best ways to approach our tiling project. Once we had the tile purchased and on site, they came within a few days. The team that came in was very pleasant and ready to work. From start to finish was less than 1.5 days. They definitely knew their craft and were also good at cleaning up afterwards. Well worth the price. We love our new bathroom.

We had hardwood floors installed. The installation crew, hard working and conscientious, did an excellent job. Ralph Clark knows how to deliver great customer service . If you are searching for a company to install hardwood floors, I unequivocally recommend Footprints Floors.
Claire Talbot 11/17/22 — google -
Ralph and crew were amazing! We needed our floors leveled and flattened before installing LVP. Ralph and crew did not hesitate to come by and do a full estimate of our floors. When other contractors failed to give us estimates due to the amount of leveling required, Ralph came in to get the job done. Finished in just a couple days (and less than the original estimate)! Would highly recommend for difficult to handle jobs.
Brenden Shields 08/1/22 — google -
Ralph and his team installed porcelain tile throughout the downstairs of my home on two separate jobs. They were clean, efficient, on time, friendly, professional and did our floors came out beautifully. The first job came out so well that we immediately hired them to do the rest of the downstairs. I would highly recommend them for your flooring needs!
Denise Calkins 11/17/21 — google -
Ralph is wonderful. My job was huge and difficult with a major demolition before he could begin installing beautiful 4+inch red oak. He oversaw and managed everything efficiently and kept me informed everyday of progress along with sending pictures. The floors are gorgeous. Beyond anything I imagined. He is wonderful to work with and was substantially less cost than my local flooring person. I recommend Ralph highly.
