Project Overview

At Rejuvenation Floor & Design, we specialize in transforming spaces with high-quality, durable flooring solutions. Recently, we helped a local Portland homeowner achieve their vision for a brighter, more resilient basement laminate flooring.


Client’s Vision: Brightening a Basement with Durable, Moisture-Resistant Flooring

The client approached us looking for a flooring solution that would bring light to their basement while offering robust protection against moisture. Knowing that basements often face challenges like dampness and lack of natural light, the goal was to install a basement laminate flooring that provided both water resistance and a light, inviting aesthetic.


After discussing their needs, we recommended Miller Lake, a 10mm laminate from TAS Flooring’s LifeProtect line, which offered exactly the combination of style and practicality the client was seeking.


Why Miller Lake LifeProtect for Basement Laminate Flooring?

LifeProtect Laminate from TAS Flooring is specially engineered to withstand the unique challenges of basement environments. Here’s why it was the perfect choice:


  • 80-Hour Water Resistance: LifeProtect’s core remains highly resistant to moisture, swelling only minimally upon exposure and retracting within 72 hours, providing excellent durability in damp conditions.
  • Eco-Friendly and Safe: Made with an HDF core from sustainable oak and maple trees in the USA, LifeProtect laminate contains no added formaldehyde, is PVC-free, and is certified GreenGuard Gold, making it a healthier choice for indoor spaces.
  • Enhanced Durability: The sturdy core combined with a polyurethane resin binder means LifeProtect is built to last, and its low-VOC emissions contribute to better indoor air quality.
  • Effortless Installation: LifeProtect’s precision-milled locking system allows for a secure, hassle-free installation, ensuring a seamless fit and finish.


Transformative Results

Our team meticulously installed each plank, ensuring precision and attention to detail at every step. The result? A basement space that feels brighter, more open, and beautifully designed for longevity. The light-toned Miller Lake laminate not only enhances the space’s warmth but also gives the client confidence that their flooring can withstand Portland’s damp conditions.
