The 1-3 rule is a standard recommendation for expansion gaps needed for floating floors like laminate and vinyl plank. It typically advises leaving about 1/3 of an inch (roughly 8mm) of space around the perimeter of the room, including against walls and fixed installations. This gap allows the flooring to expand and contract with humidity and temperature fluctuations, preventing buckling. We can provide guidance.

Vinyl plank often excels in water resistance, making it ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and basements in Omaha homes. Laminate typically offers a more realistic wood texture and can be more scratch-resistant. Both are popular, budget-friendly choices. We can help you determine which best suits your specific needs.
