Waterproof vs. laminate flooring

Waterproof flooring is head and shoulders above laminate for several reasons if you are looking for a floor covering that genuinely works for the widest variety of requirements. When you combine the benefits, the visuals, and the lifespan, you’ll see why this floor covering is likely to work for you and your household. Read along to find out more about what we have to offer your flooring project.

Unlike laminate flooring, vinyl plank flooring gives you the option for complete imperviousness to water in every room of your home. The core material is responsible for this protection and can be made of wood plastic composite, stone plastic composite, or 100% vinyl. The complete protection from water damage is why we choose to sell waterproof materials instead of laminate.

Another reason we allow luxury vinyl to be our go-to floor covering is because it offers impressive resistance to stains, dents, scratches, and more. This comes compliments of a top wear layer you can purchase in various thicknesses for personalized protection, no matter which room it's installed in. These benefits are particularly worthwhile if you are a parent or pet owner or have high traffic levels through your home regularly.

When you combine the exceptional waterproof properties of LVP with the other impressive benefits the material has to offer, you will find a floor covering that serves you in every room of your home. Whether you need flooring for basements, bathrooms, or bedrooms, these floors can get the job done. Stop by any time to speak with an associate today to find your perfect flooring fit.
