About Waterproof Vinyl Floors

Are you looking for the latest trending floor but also want something that's easy to handle with your hectic household? Waterproof luxury vinyl flooring is just the thing for you! Waterproof vinyl floors can fit seamlessly into your design aesthetic, complementing every style–from rustic farmhouse to sleek Scandinavian minimalism. Plus, its tough, resilient surface stands up to wear, tear, and water all while looking indistinguishable from authentic hardwood and natural stone

What Is Waterproof Vinyl Flooring?

We know you want to ensure you're investing in long-lasting flooring that meets the specific needs of your unique household, which means holding up to the pile of wet towels left in the laundry room after weekend swim parties. Vinyl waterproof flooring gives you a reliable option with its multi-layered surface engineered for durability, water resistance, and high-quality design. It consists of a backing layer, a resilient core, an image layer featuring a high-definition print, and a protective wear layer. 

When shopping for vinyl waterproof floors, you'll have the choice between WPC and SPC vinyl flooring. But what are they and how do they differ? 

  • Wood-plastic composite (WPC) is a dense, thick core made of wood and plastic. It features a foaming agent that makes this vinyl flooring feel softer underfoot, a brilliant solution for young kids and older adults alike. It works well in any area of the home, and its thickness helps to cover imperfect subfloors. Goodbye old, uneven floorboards!
  • Stone plastic composite (SPC) has a denser, sturdier composition made of stone and plastic. Though it stands up to heavy traffic better, it doesn't have the softness or warmth that WPC provides. Still, this is a great choice for your high-moisture areas like mudrooms, kitchens, or bathrooms where you likely have people traipsing in and out. 

Appearance

Whether you're in the market for a gorgeous geometric mosaic pattern, an elegant dark walnut hardwood, or a sleek stone look, waterproof vinyl flooring has you covered. 

Wood-look waterproof vinyl mimics the hearty planks of genuine hardwood species, allowing you to bring the outdoors inside with wood looks like oak, maple, and hickory. You can find a color palette and style designed just for you with endless options–from wide-grained blond to knotty mocha brown to cool grey with subtle swirls, and everything in between. 

Stone look vinyl tiles and planks let you bring slate, marble, travertine, and other natural stones to all rooms of your home. Or opt for patterned waterproof vinyl to decorate your space with metallic accents, geometric patterns, and more. 

Durability and Maintenance

High-quality waterproof vinyl tile can easily contend with the busiest lifestyles, including rowdy pets, messy family members, and constant foot traffic from a neighborhood's worth of kids. No need to fear scratches, dents, or water damage, as waterproof vinyl planks and tiles do a great job of resisting them. 

Nothing quite beats the easy maintenance of vinyl waterproof floors. You only have to sweep or vacuum your floors regularly to keep dust and dirt at bay, and use a damp mop when you want a deeper clean. Even if your vinyl flooring is waterproof, your best bet is to clean up accidents and spills right away to avoid any long-term moisture seeping in unwanted places.

Vinyl waterproof floors will give you and your family years of comfort underfoot, provided you're mindful of its optimal conditions. These include: 

  • Proper installation with high-quality materials 
  • Routine maintenance
  • Cleaning based on the manufacturer instructions
  • Protection from damage and abnormal wear and tear
  • Warranty protection that gives you peace of mind for years to come

Your Carpet One professional installers will know exactly which one your job requires and will ensure an efficient and proper installation.

  • Interlocking planks are not easy to repair. 

Waterproof Vinyl Floors vs. Waterproof Laminate

Both waterproof vinyl flooring and waterproof laminate flooring are beautiful, durable products that work well in most homes. Waterproof vinyl consists of polymer, which resists liquid entirely.
