Like solid hardwood floors, damage to engineered hardwood floors can be the result of either a one time water event or an ongoing issue.

There are two major categories of laminate floors, high pressure (hpl) and direct press or direct pressure (dpl).
There are very few manufacturers still producing hpl laminate.
Last time I checked, Alloc was the only company selling hpl laminate.
Wisonarte is probably best known for it's hpl laminates but they stopped production of laminate flooring in 2010.
Some older Pergo products were hpl.
I see less and less out in the field as time goes by but it's easy to tell when a laminate product is hpl.

When trying to match a laminate floor, the first thing one might look at is the print, or the graphic.
First, let's look at the image itself.
When you shop for laminate flooring, you may notice products that appear to be similar, having different labels and different brand names.
This can be very confusing and can result is a "false positive" material match.
So how do we know if a product has a "shared" graphic print or an "exclusive" graphic print?
That can be a tough question to answer, but in general, name brand laminate flooring products will use their own graphic print, and smaller, usually Chinese manufacturers tend to use graphic prints that are also used by other manufacturers.
