Would order from again

Delivered in two days and the delivery man helped me carry it to my door which was really appreciated!! I ordered a 14mm thick laminate and because of the weight of it there was a knack but I am so pleased with the final result. I will say its well worth investing in the flooring kit you can buy from amazon that comes with the spacers, hammer and blocks so you dont damage the laminate boards when knocking the small gaps. I did contact customer services after reading some of the reviews on here about late deliveries and they couldnt be more helpful. Would order from again!!

Good value and packagings need improvement

The product was good value and delivery was on time, with clear communication throughout the process. The only downside was the packaging — the pallet straps cut into the boxes and damaged the click system, meaning I had to dispose of 11–12 planks. Fortunately, I ordered extra so I didn’t fall short, but it’s worth keeping this in mind when deciding how much to purchase.

Thank you for your review.

We’re sorry for the frustration caused by the delivery delay.

Unfortunately, at the time of your scheduled delivery we were affected by severe weather conditions, which meant deliveries could not be completed safely that day.

We’re pleased the order was delivered on the next working day and regret the disruption caused.

Ordered 27 boxes of the Soft Mist waterproof laminate, after being happy with the sample. Delivery was fine, arrived as expected, on pallets and wrapped fine.
Upon laying the hallway before moving into the kitchen, it looked good, but then as half the kitchen was laid, I noticed the joins were a different colour, dark joins all in the hallway, then a mix of dark and light joins progressing through the kitchen, upon checking the boxes it appears it was 2 different batch numbers, too late now. After mixing them up it looked abit more even, but different batch numbers seemed a poor oversight from them. Oh and the floor seems to chip really easily, despite claiming Very Heavy Domestic and Heavy Commercial durability. Wouldn’t recommend and wouldnt buy again

We are very sorry to learn about your experience and understand your concerns.

Any variation between batches should be minimal and not normally noticeable once the floor is laid. We appreciate you raising this and have noted your feedback.

In terms of durability, this product is rated for Intensive domestic and very heavy commercial use, and chipping is not expected under normal conditions. That said, we understand your concerns and are sorry to hear you were disappointed.

Please feel free to contact our customer service team on [email protected] directly with some images, and we’ll be happy to review this for you.

Kind regards

Honest review

Initially, I was genuinely impressed by the colour and finish of this flooring. Based on the samples received, I felt confident in my choice and was excited to proceed with the full order.

Unfortunately, once the full boards were delivered and laid out in real-life lighting conditions, the overall tone appeared significantly warmer than the samples and did not match what I had expected.
I fully understand natural variation in wood-effect flooring, but this was not just variation between individual boards — the overall tone of the delivered product was different from what the samples represented. Samples are taken specifically to support an informed purchasing decision, so this discrepancy was disappointing.

When placing my order, I was informed that the product was temporarily unavailable due to high demand and had to wait approximately 2–3 weeks before it became available again. Delivery was then delayed by a few additional days. While delays can happen, this extended waiting time added to the overall frustration, especially given the issues experienced after delivery.
I contacted Renovate Direct to raise concerns about the colour difference between the samples and the delivered boards. The response explained that samples are only indicative and that colour variation is a design feature, referring me back to website images and the returns policy. While I understand standard policies, this response did not address the core issue: the samples themselves did not accurately reflect the overall tone of the delivered product.

Installation was more challenging than expected. The click system is quite fragile; some locking edges cracked easily during installation, even with care and correct tools. Boards required considerable force to seat properly, and maintaining tight joints was difficult.

I would also note that this flooring feels relatively cold underfoot. If you are looking for a warmer, more comfortable feel — especially in living areas where you walk barefoot — this material may not be the best choice.

Once installed, the floor looks acceptable, but the installation process was physically demanding and stressful. Given the price point, I expected a more robust click system, better thermal comfort, and closer consistency between samples and the delivered product.

This flooring may suit some projects, but buyers should be aware that colour tone may differ noticeably from samples, installation requires extra care, delivery may involve extended waiting times, and the surface feel is on the colder side.

For future customers, I believe this experience could be improved by providing samples that more accurately reflect the overall tone of the full product, clearer guidance on colour warmth, and a more robust click system appropriate for the price point.

Thank you for your honest feedback.

We’re pleased to hear that you initially liked the colour and finish of the sample, but we’re very sorry to learn that the full boards did not meet your expectations once they arrived.

Our flooring is designed to replicate natural wood, which means there will always be a degree of colour and pattern variation across the planks. While the samples we provide are cut directly from the product, and although we do offer generous-sized samples, we appreciate that they may not always show the full range of tones present.

We understand how disappointing this experience has been for you, especially after delays with availability, and we’re sorry for any inconvenience caused along the way.

The experience was great.

We were fortunate to have a good experience with Renovate. None of the issues mentioned in other reviews applied to us. Delivery was on time, and customer service responded promptly to all our questions.

I was quite worried when I realised I had provided the wrong delivery address, especially after reading some complaints about the delivery service. However, the customer service team handled my request to change the address very quickly, which was a big relief.

The quality of the laminate flooring was outstanding — the best among all the samples we received. We’ve now installed it throughout our home, and it offers great value for money.

It would be perfect if their delivery man were willing to move all laminate to the first floor. He left all laminate flooring at the groud floor so my partner and I had a 30 min work out afterwards...
