Replace carpet with laminate

We camp in the Florida Keys a lot and have 2 small dogs. Has anyone replaced a lot of their carpet with laminate flooring? The unit is 10 years old and carpet getting rough.

  • I am in the process of replacing most of the carpet in our 5th wheel. In during research I think you will discover that laminate is not a good choice as it swells with moisture. I can say that is true as the laminate in our bedroom got wet and swelled / buckled.

    Most advise using the vinyl plank flooring as it is moisture resistant. Also to use the click lock method over the glue strips.

    I am using this product from Home Depot.

    Sawcut Arizona

    Hope this helps!
