About Elite Laminate Floors

Laminate Flooring Installation Company in Lake Charles, LA Near Me

Louisiana is one of the most humid places we work. High groundwater and heavy rain mean many homes are on slabs, while older homes are raised on piers. Both need a moisture plan before laminate goes down.

Slabs get a moisture reading and 6-mil poly. Raised homes get a check of the plywood and the space underneath. Waterproof laminate with sealed edges is our usual pick for Louisiana kitchens and baths, and we keep the full expansion gap at exterior walls.

  • Laminate flooring installation and laminate floor replacement, nothing else
  • Subfloor flatness and moisture checked before we quote
  • Free in-home estimate with samples in AC3 and AC4
  • Tear-out, leveling, trim and haul away in one written price

Laminate flooring FAQs

Questions about laminate flooring installation

Questions Lake Charles, LA homeowners ask most about laminate flooring installation and laminate floor replacement.

Talk to our crew
How much does laminate flooring installation cost?
Price depends on room size, the laminate you pick, subfloor prep, tear-out and trim. Labor for a straight floating install is usually quoted per square foot, and stairs are quoted per step. We give a written estimate after we measure your home, so call (855) 751-1996 to book one.
Can laminate go over concrete?
Yes. We check moisture first, then lay a 6-mil poly vapor barrier with taped seams, then underlayment, then the floating floor. The slab needs to be flat within about 3/16 inch over 10 feet.
Can you install laminate over my old floor?
Laminate can float over sound, flat vinyl or tile. It should not go over carpet. We look at the old floor during the estimate and tell you whether it can stay or should come out.
Is laminate waterproof?
Standard laminate handles spills wiped up quickly. Waterproof laminate has sealed joints and a treated core rated to resist standing water for a set time. For kitchens, baths and basements we usually recommend waterproof lines.
How long does laminate floor installation take?
One or two rooms usually take a day. A whole main floor of 1,000 to 1,500 square feet runs two to four days, including tear-out and trim. Leveling compound can add a drying day.
