Pergo flooring provides a wide range of laminate flooring, with an emphasis on reproducing the genuine feel of hardwood and tile. With Pergo flooring, homeowners can have a great looking floor that won't suffer from water damage or abrasions. Laminate flooring requires next to no maintenance, and will stay looking great for many years. The latest Pergo flooring reproduces the graining, knotting, texture, and color of genuine hardwood. Visitors will be hard pressed to know the difference between Pergo flooring and real hardwood or tile.

In addition to its great looking and lasting appeal, laminate flooring is also very easy to install. With its interlocking tiles, Pergo flooring can be installed without professional help. The tiles are manufactured with a tongue and groove system that allows the tiles to interlock without glue or other industrial adhesives. Provided a home installer has a tile cutting tool, the installation should be very little trouble. Interlocking Pergo flooring is also easier on the environment, without any of the harmful chemical adhesives that other floors possess.

Home Pergo flooring installation is easy enough for almost anyone to do, and can save thousands of dollars in professional installation fees. Pergo flooring is safer and healthier without any of the chemicals seen in other flooring. Once a Pergo floor is installed, it should last for several years. Worn out and damaged tiles can be individually removed and replaced. Laminate flooring will not suffer in the same way from water damage and abrasion as hardwood. A hardwood will crack and buckle when exposed to moisture over time. Cupping and crowning results from extended moisture exposure. This moisture can come both from spills and from water that wicks up from the subfloor, making prevention difficult.

Pergo flooring is superior to carpet as well, offering both comfort and reliability that the former cannot. Carpet can soak up water and stains, making it difficult to keep clean. Over time, carpet can also take on unpleasant odors that are hard to eliminate. Laminate flooring will not absorb any of these same smells, remaining in perfect condition for years. Carpet, by contrast, will gradually wear down and become frayed and torn. The only means of repairing a carpet that has become frayed or worn is to eventually replace it, costing potentially hundreds of dollars for the consumer.
