When many manufactures designers wanted to create beautiful floor coverings, nature inspired
the laminate flooring. Carefully mimicked, many of our manufacturers laminate flooring takes
naturally occurring patterns and painstakingly replicates color tones and hues of seasons.
Rich oaks and hickories, warm maples and cherries, soft teaks and pines and rosewoods and
walnuts - many of the laminate collections we offer can charm and delight you as you browse
through the flooring choices. And just wait till you see these hardwood replicas in your home.
For fans of stone and ceramic, one Mohawk laminate collection features tiles with beveled
edges and the look of elegant stonework. And the appearance can be mixed, matched, interplayed
and arranged to create exactly the unique and personal home environment you want - all while
staying within your budget.
Multiple layers compose each laminate, deliberately varied to look and even feel like wood.
In addition, reproducing the effects of centuries-old hand-working techniques creates timeless
vintage appeal.
And talk about easy-clean: no waxes, polishes, gooey detergents or abrasive cleaners are
ever needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I remove dried glue from my laminate floor?
Hardened glue left over after your floor is installed can be removed with
Acetone™ nail polish remover or special glue solvents.
Can pets damage my new laminate floor?
Yes, it is possible for dogs and cats to damage any type of flooring,
including laminate flooring. Although some Laminate Floors are extremely durable they can
be scratched by untrimmed pet claws. Keeping dogs and cats claws trimmed will help your
floor look beautiful for many years.
How can I remove scratch marks from my laminate floors?
For minor scratches in your laminate floor there are special,
color-coordinating pencils that may be used to fill in scratches. See your Mohawk Laminate
Flooring dealer for more information. By using some common sense precautions you can help
keep your floor looking like new. Use walk off mats in front off all doorways and felt
pads under all furniture legs. Never drag heavy objects over the floor, instead place 1/4"
underlayment or plywood down first and then slide the heavy object across the
underlayment panels. For more information see our Laminate Floor Care.
Can a chip in my laminate floor be repaired?
For chips, deep scratches and gouges there are colored burn-in, filler
sticks available which are used with special electric knives to repair these areas. If
the damage to the plank is too severe you can have the damaged plank replaced without
destroying the rest of the floor. For plank replacements there are special tools, router
bits, and wood splines available to make the job easier. We suggest you leave plank
replacement up to a professional installer.
