Is Vinyl Flooring Waterproof?

All vinyl flooring products are moisture-resistant, but not all are genuinely waterproof. For a product to be 100% waterproof, hidden features are necessary. These hefty planks and tiles come with a watertight core, cork backing, and a sturdy, clear topcoat. Consequently, even the most significant splashes will remain trapped on the floor’s surface, blocking stains and damages before they happen.

Vinyl Flooring Installation

When installing luxury vinyl flooring, you can choose products that use traditional glue-down installation or opt for a floating floor installation. Glue-down vinyl flooring is a more traditional option. These floors, as you can imagine, are glued directly to the subfloor with a unique adhesive. As a result, glue-down floors are thin, but they are an excellent option for heavy traffic areas.

WPC flooring is a more innovative luxury vinyl option, and it is more stylish and better-performing alternative to glue-down luxury vinyl. WPC floors have thick, rigid constructions and waterproof cores, so they are the most durable flooring options available. These floors will click and lock together like puzzle pieces and can even be installed over existing floors.
