Stylish floors

Luxury vinyl flooring offers images of wood, stone, and ceramic tile that are so realistic sometimes even the flooring experts have difficulty telling it from the real thing. All photos are taken with high-definition photography and include embossing and micro beveling to depth, dimension, and textured looks.

Waterproof and affordable

Affordable, sophisticated, luxury vinyl is 100% waterproof whether submerged (as in an appliance flood) or spilled on. It is also durable, being five times thicker than the original product and layered, with a top, clear, strong melamine coating that protects the floor from scratches and scuffs.

Luxury vinyl flooring is low maintenance

Low maintenance, all luxury vinyl flooring requires is regular sweeping and periodic mopping. Installation, too, is fast and uncomplicated, especially when it's installed as a floating floor where the pieces click, mat, and hover over the subfloor without nails or glue.

Choose waterproof vinyl flooring

For even higher moisture protection, choose waterproof vinyl flooring. This is an engineered version of luxury vinyl that is thicker and more durable. It is constructed with the WPC (wood plastic composite) or SPC (stone plastic composite) cores that never peel or ripple, no matter how much water there is or for how long.
