Laminate floor direction

Question

How can I figure out what direction to install a laminate floor?

Paul · Accepted Answer

You should always lay your flooring going towards the window it will make the room feel bigger

Jordan · Answer

In a living room for example I personally always run my boards the longest length so if your livingroom is a 5x4 go for the 5m run.
As many floors as I’ve done it’s more about aesthetic rather than being right or wrong

Rees · Answer

You always go with the longest way of the room, and hallways should be fitted according to the length.

Along the daylight entering from the window. This will optically increase the room

Daniel · Answer

Generally speaking, you lay along with the longest run which makes the space appear bigger. But can be laid diagonally depending on the look you require. Also, try to lay away from a window if the room is square.

Ignas · Answer

It depends on what you want to achieve, a longer or wider look.  As well it depends on the shape of the room. And what pattern you want.

Kieran · Answer

it will all depend on room layout your installer will explain best route

David · Answer

Typically in rooms, it should always be run away from the window rather than across, and in a hallway, it should always be run longways! But really the decision is yours
