This is [Quick-Step Impressive](https://flooringking.co.uk/category/quickstep-impressive) laminate, so it's water resistant. That means spills and splashes won't damage it, making it ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms and wet areas where traditional laminate might struggle. It handles moisture far better than standard flooring.

### Installation and heating

Smoked Oak uses a simple click system, so fitting is straightforward and quick. Underlay is required and the floor supports underfloor heating, so it works with warm-water systems if you're upgrading an older heating setup. Lay it over a flat, dry subfloor and you're done.

### Looking after it

Keep it clean with a damp cloth and vacuum regularly to lift dust and grit. The brushed texture hides dust well, but avoid standing water. Wipe spills straight away and you'll keep this floor looking fresh for years. [Quick-Step Laminate Flooring](https://flooringking.co.uk/category/quickstep-laminate) is built to last, and Smoked Oak's dark tones are forgiving with everyday wear.
