Which Type of Vinyl Flooring Is Best?

Vinyl comes in three distinct formats: sheet vinyl, vinyl plank, and vinyl tile,

• Sheet vinyl is hardly a new concept, but this type of product has vastly improved in recent years. Sheet vinyl is affordable, sold by the rolls, and once installed bears very few seams.
• Vinyl tiles come in the shape and size of porcelain, ceramic, and natural stone.
• Vinyl planks come in the form of wood look panels. You’ll even find extra wide plank vinyl flooring, and options with beveled edges and other details.

Why Choose Vinyl Flooring?

Vinyl is an engineered floor, which means advancements in technology have made for a durable floor that stands up to anything from furniture to dropped objects. For homes with kids, pets, and busy lives, vinyl is moisture resistant. It’s well suited for areas such as:

• Bathrooms
• Kitchens
• Laundry Rooms
• Children’s Rooms
• Family Rooms
• Foyers
• Hallways
• Stairs

Should I Choose Vinyl Flooring Instead of Hardwood?

Over time, hardwood floors will become weathered or worn. With vinyl planks, you’ll never need to sand or refinish your floor again. Moms, dads, and pet owners take note: while wooden floors will expand and contract with moisture, installing a vinyl floor means you’ll never want to cry over spilled milk- or anything else.

While some are under the impression that vinyl and laminate are alike, nothing could be further from the truth. True, both capture the look and style of wood or stone, but vinyl tends to be more water resistant than laminate, often making it a better choice for areas prone to moisture.

Is Vinyl Flooring Really Waterproof?

All our vinyl flooring collections are water-resistant. There are also certain varieties that are fully waterproof. Rigid core and WPC are two such products. Waterproof vinyl flooring is perfect in moisture-prone spaces where real hardwood can warp. This type of flooring is also popular in commercial environments, particularly in hospitality and downtown businesses.

Waterproof vinyl offers 100% protection with its watertight seal that preventing moisture from getting under the surface. Its specialized core allows moisture to evaporate before it causes damage. This prevents problems like warping, mold, and damage to the subfloor
