Timber laminate flooring has a similar look to traditional timber, with one unique difference. Instead of been fixed permanently using nails and adhesive, the flooring ‘floats’ on top of an underlay, making them easier to install or replace than traditional timber hardwood. They are durable, scratch and stain resilient, and provide an economical alternative to hardwood floors for the home or office.
At VCS we stock an extensive array of good quality timber laminate flooring, including the impressive INOVAR & READY FLOOR ranges in a diverse number of colours and styles.

What are Some Quality Options for Timber Laminate Flooring
Timber laminate flooring comes in a range of thicknesses, each with different applications and price points.
- Thin laminates 8mm
- Laminates 12mm
- Timber engineered 14mm
Thin Laminate Flooring
8mm
It is widely used in budget and rental applications as it offers durability and comfort at an inexpensive price point. The 8mm thickness can help prevent any uneven subfloors and gives you that sleek-looking floor solution.
Laminate flooring
12mm
It brings forth a sturdy and durable constitution and is a popular option widely used commercially. 12mm offers better absorption, greater impact resistance, nicer designs with embossing, and can completely cover up subfloor imperfections.
Timber Engineered Flooring
14mm
It is a very robust flooring option that gives your floors the natural beauty of hardwood flooring and can last an entire lifetime if maintained properly. Moreover, our 14mm flooring is designed for two possible installation choices – ‘Floating’ or ‘Adhered.’
The Average Floating Floor has a 3mm timber veneer of which approximately 1mm can be sanded. Good quality floating floors have cross laminated cores made of good quality timber.
A Floating floor requires specialist installation. Usually there is a backing veneer to balance out the construction, but concrete is never flat, and can create hollow spots under your floor. A close celled foam underlay should be installed under the floor to deaden any sound underfoot. At VCS in Perth we supply excellent quality underlays with our floors for the best possible installation.
We’re proud to bring over 70- years’ experience to every project. The VCS team use their expert knowledge to ensure the best possible installation process, using only the finest quality timber laminate flooring in Perth.
What are some benefits of a Laminate Floating Floor?
At VCS, we build floating floors using laminate floorings, which can be a more affordable option and come with significant benefits for you to consider for your home space and business:
- Laminate flooring is renowned for being extremely durable and resistant to any sort of impact and scratches that could be caused.
- Cleaning and maintenance of any flooring is always a concern for every customer. Still, laminate flooring is one of the easiest to care for as you don’t really need any special waxes or liquids to keep it looking immaculate.
- Our timber laminate floating floors are economically sound due to the installation cost compared to other floorings, as well as the overall replacement or upkeep costs later.
- Laminate floating flooring is a good option if you have a subfloor that can’t be glued down to another, offering you that affordable, versatile alternative.
- Due to the floating floor design, the flooring can expand and contract when the humidity changes without losing its integrity.
Why Should You Decide on a Timber Laminate Floating Floor?
A wooden laminate floating floor might not always be the first option, but it is an option worth the investment. Timber laminated flooring comes with a click-lock mechanism that ensures the floorboards are set securely without creating any unnecessary gaps. This mechanism also allows for easy replacement and expansion of the flooring at a practical price point.
Moreover, our timber laminate flooring can give your home or office that particular aesthetic appeal you might have been looking for by choosing from various designs. Timber laminate flooring is also easy to clean up and maintain at affordable prices.
