Do You Install Laminate Flooring Under Your Refrigerator?

Is laminate flooring installed beneath the refrigerator? Many professionals lay laminate flooring up to the outer edges of refrigerators and other fixtures when installing laminate flooring in kitchens with refrigerators. Others choose to leave the appliances out when laying down flooring, which is acceptable if you use a perimeter bead or if you use blocks with an offset space between them and the appliance.

 

Should Laminate Flooring Be Installed Under the Refrigerator?

If you’re thinking about installing laminate flooring in your kitchen, you might wonder if you should put it under the refrigerator. Yes, you can install laminate flooring beneath the refrigerator. However, there are a few things to consider before proceeding.

First, ensure that the laminate flooring you select is strong enough to support the weight of the refrigerator.

Second, measure the space under the refrigerator to determine how much laminate flooring you will require.

Finally, follow the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure that the laminate flooring is properly installed and will not damage the fridge.

 

It is ultimately up to you to determine what is best for your kitchen and personal preferences. If you are unsure, you can always seek the advice of a professional.
