Flooring is one of the essential parts of your house and is one of the major things that define any interior. Picking out the correct flooring for your home can be a hassle, especially with as many options available as there are today.

There are a lot of questions that surround these two flooring options, and both have their fair share of criticism and praise. Below, I’ll present both of them with their respective pros and cons, and give you a comparison between the two so you can decide which is the right option for your Australian home.

Laminate

Laminate flooring has been around for a while, and it doesn’t have the best reputation. That’s because laminate wasn’t nearly as good back in the day as it is now.

All kinds of designs, looks, and types of laminates are available all across the world, and with different styles and embossing available – they fit virtually any household.

Laminate is also a durable, easy to clean, and affordable flooring option.

Pros

• Lightweight
• Affordable
• Durable
• Easy to install

Cons

• Susceptible to water damage
• Require spills to be cleaned straight away

Hybrid

Hybrid flooring is becoming a popular choice in Australia for its durability and elegance. Lion King Flooring carries a variety of SPC hybrid flooring designed to suit every need. From bedrooms to home offices and family rooms, this type of flooring is ideal throughout most rooms of the house.

Hybrid flooring or laminate planks?

There really is no contest when it comes to hybrid flooring vs laminate flooring. Hybrid flooring wins hands-down every time for its functionality, durability, and longevity.

Why choose hybrid flooring?

Aside from its sleek appearance and durability, there are several reasons why hybrid flooring is a smart investment.

Pros

 

• Waterproof
• Resistant to mould and mildew
• They are easy to clean and maintain. Just vacuum and mop with a just water or pH-neutral cleaner once weekly to help them shine.
• Easy to install

 

Cons

• Pricier option
