For busy homes, it’s no secret that vinyl flooring will keep your stress levels low while providing a beautiful floor that adapts to any style. The benefits of vinyl flooring make it an exciting option in today’s flooring industry. At Carpet One Floor & Home, we have one of the region’s most extensive collections of vinyl flooring. A regional favorite, wood-look vinyl plank flooring is always a sound plan. Vinyl plank is a dream for parents and pet lovers, with ample waterproof options that are simple and speedy to install.

 

Choosing Your Best Vinyl Flooring Type

 

There are two types of vinyl flooring available today: tiles and planks.

 

 

• Vinyl planks have a built-in design feature that is an HD photo of hardwood on the top layer, making them look even more realistic. Designed to give your floors the appearance of hardwood floors without the cost, vinyl planks offer greater stain resistance and are much easier to maintain than traditional hardwood planks. Even though vinyl plank is an economical alternative to real hardwood, this format has improved over time to authentically mimic different wood species, colors, and textures. Whereas natural wood is not a water-resistant flooring type, vinyl planks are waterproof and sealed to completely prevent moisture from seeping through the floor.

 

• Vinyl tiles consist of individual squares of various size that, when assembled, give the appearance of stone tile. One of the benefits of having individual tiles is that they’re easier to replace when one is damaged. You can also use vinyl tile flooring to arrange a pattern, which will further enhance the resemblance to ceramic tile and stone. Have a weekend coming up that you set aside to redo the bathroom? With peel-and-stick installation, you can easily complete a transformation using vinyl tile. Pro Tip: You can add grout to fill between the vinyl tiles to make your ceramic visual even more realistic.

 

Is Vinyl A Waterproof Floor?

 

Most vinyl flooring is water-resistant, but there are some vinyl products that are 100% waterproof. The primary difference between the two is that waterproof vinyl will keep liquids and spills on the surface, keeping them from seeping below into the subfloor. Waterproof vinyl simply does a better job of keeping your subfloor safe. However, we always recommend cleaning up spills as soon as they happen, just to be safe.
