About

8mm thick laminate flooring is the “sweet spot” for many homes. It gives you a more solid feel than thinner boards, without the extra cost or added height of the thickest options. If you’re after a practical, good-value laminate for everyday living, 8mm is usually the safest bet. Why Choose 8mm Laminate Flooring More stable underfoot: a sturdier feel compared to thinner laminate, especially in lived-in rooms Great balance of value and performance: a popular thickness for full-room refits Easier to live with: pairs well with a quality underlay to help with comfort and noise Where 8mm Works Best 8mm laminate is a strong choice for most rooms, including living rooms , kitchens , hallways, bedrooms , and home offices. It’s a reliable option if you want one consistent thickness throughout the house for cleaner transitions between rooms. A quick note on fitting 8mm is still a floating floor, so good prep matters: Make sure the subfloor is flat and dry Choose the right underlay for your subfloor (concrete vs timber) Leave expansion gaps so the floor can move naturally over time It’s also available in a range of styles, including Herringbone , Plank , and Tile Effect Laminate Flooring , so you can match the look to your space.
