Is vinyl plank flooring really waterproof?

Yes, it absolutely is! The material itself won't absorb water, so it's a fantastic choice for basements, kitchens, laundry rooms, and bathrooms.

How long does an installation usually take?

It depends on the size of the space, of course, but most rooms can be done in just a day or two. It's a much faster process than traditional hardwood.

Can you install vinyl plank over my old tile or hardwood?

In many cases, yes! As long as the existing floor is flat, level, and in good shape, we can often install the new vinyl plank right on top. We'll check it out first to make sure it's a good candidate.

Why We're Big Fans of Vinyl Plank

Honestly, what's not to love? Luxury Vinyl Plank (or LVP) is a fantastic flooring material that's come a long way. It's made of multiple layers, including a tough-as-nails wear layer on top that protects it from scuffs and scratches. The best part for many of us is that it's completely waterproof. You don't have to panic about a spilled drink or the snow melting off your boots in the entryway. This makes it a game-changer for any room in the house, especially ones where you'd never dream of putting real wood.

The style options are nearly endless, too. The imaging technology they use today is incredible, so the planks have realistic wood grain textures, knots, and colour variations. You can find a style that matches your home perfectly, whether you live in a modern condo or a classic Toronto semi. It's also much warmer and softer underfoot than something like ceramic tile, which is a nice little bonus on those chilly winter mornings.

Where Does It Work Best in Your Home?

Because of its durability and waterproof nature, vinyl plank is incredibly versatile. It's an absolute champion in basements, which can be prone to dampness. It’s also a perfect fit for kitchens and bathrooms where splashes and spills are just a part of life. We also install it all the time in high-traffic areas like hallways, living rooms, and playrooms. It can handle pets, kids, and whatever else your busy life throws at it. You get a consistent, beautiful look that flows right through your home. Installation is usually pretty quick, and we can often lay it right over your existing hard surface floor, which saves a lot of time and mess. If you want a floor that looks amazing and lets you relax, this is it. Give us a call at (647) 898-7839 and we can chat about it!

"My project was a little over 1000 sq ft of hardwood flooring, 350 ft of baseboard trim, 350 feet of door stop and 10 sq ft of tile in front of a fireplace. Upon completion, the rooms looked fabulous for 2 reasons. One was the natural warmth and elegance of wood flooring and secondly, the workmanship of Rudy and his crew. The quality and professionalism of the job was no more evident then where the tile and wood met. The tile was raised to the level of the wood thickness and the 2 met each other at an odd angle. The transition between the 2 surfaces was seamless and flawless and no transition pieces were required to hide any shortcomings. I was most impressed with this part of the job as only an experienced professional would do such a perfect job. In addition, Rudy and his crew were very courteous and cleaned up the mess after each days work. Even though I invited them to bring their saws and cutters indoors because it was cold, they insisted on doing this part of the job outdoor to minimise the mess in my home. I would definitely recommend Rudy and his crew to anyone seeking to have their flooring done. He is reasonably priced and offers quality work in exchange. Thanks Rudy and crew. Great Job."

"Rudy was extremely professional and efficient. We were on a very tight timeline and he was able to help us go from quote to full install in 5 days. His team was very professional and they did a good job tiding up after themselves. Our floors look amazing. I would highly recommend using this company, they are all the things you could ask for in a contractor; polite, neat, reasonably priced and timely. Thank you so much again Rudy for all your great work!"
