How to choose between them

Most families end up with more than one floor type, and that is usually the right call. A hard wearing tile at the back door, vinyl plank through the kitchen and family room, and carpet in the bedrooms puts each floor where it works hardest. The trick is planning where one floor meets the next, so the change happens at a doorway or a natural break in the room.

If you are torn between vinyl plank and laminate, think about the room. Vinyl plank is a little softer and warmer, which makes it a favorite in kitchens and family rooms. Laminate is firmer and has a crisp wood look that suits bedrooms, dens and offices. Both float over an underlayment and both are quick to install.

Mind the edges

The open floor is only part of a finished room. Stairs that lead up from a new plank floor, a worn plank by the patio door, or a tired transition at the kitchen doorway can all make a new floor look unfinished. That is why stair treads and floor repair sit on this list next to the main floor types.
