Pro Tips

✓ Acclimate laminate in the room for 48 hours before installation to prevent buckling
✓ Leave a 1/4" expansion gap around all walls — cover it with baseboard or quarter-round
✓ Stagger end joints by at least 12" between rows for strength and appearance
✓ Underlayment is required over concrete subfloors to block moisture
✓ Buy all boxes from the same production lot for consistent color matching
