Hey there, everyone! Over the past few weeks, we have been making some MAJOR updates to our bedroom. One of those updates is brand new waterproof laminate flooring to replace our tired carpet. I’m partnering with The Home Depot today to show you what we chose, how to install it and what my ABSOLUTE favorite tools are for installing flooring. This is now the 5th flooring project we’ve done at our house, I feel like I’ve really narrowed down the list to what makes the job go the fastest and the easiest.
To get all of the details on this flooring install, head over to The Home Depot blog! There you’ll get a full breakdown of the process! Plus you’ll see the huge difference the new flooring has made to our bedroom!
We have been slowly swapping out the carpet in our house with laminate and our bedroom was the final room on the list! We couldn’t wait to get rid of our old carpet that has been used and abused over the past 8+ years. With two growing boys and a dog, it took a beating.
The flooring we chose is Pergo Outlast+ in Java Scraped Oak. There were so many amazing color choices, so it was definitely a tough decision. The darker flooring contrasts so well with our grey walls and white trim and I’m planning to build all new furniture in our room that will also be a lighter color to also contrast against the wood.
This flooring is so easy to install and once you get started, the process goes so quickly. In fact, had we not decided to also wall in our bathroom, we’d have had the flooring installed in just a day. Between framing in the wall, drywall, and then realizing we needed to repaint our entire room (we couldn’t get the color to match), the flooring took a bit longer than planned. I don’t regret it one bit, though. Our new bedroom looks so amazing now! To see the full reveal and all of the details of the process and my favorite tools to use, head over to The Home Depot blog!

Wow, I love what you did with this waterproof laminate flooring. This is definitely something I’m going to look into to replace some of my carpet. Are you liking the flooring so far? Do you find that it’s durable?
Thank you for sharing,
Bob

Hi Bob,
Yes, we are liking it very much so far. I installed it first in my youngest son’s bedroom almost a year ago and have found it to be very durable and it has held up wonderfully.
Thank you! I will definitely give this flooring a try when I go to replace this carpet.
My wife and I put in a high quality waterproof laminate floor over 10 years ago all through our house. Its barely showing signs of wear even with 2 kids and a decade of abuse. You really do get what you pay for with some things.
