Common flooring questions and answers


1. What's the most durable flooring?

There's no single answer here, since durability really comes down to the household and how the floor gets used day to day. A busy home with kids and pets wears through material differently than a quiet one.

That said, natural stone and porcelain are some of the most durable options we carry, with ceramic tile holding up especially well in high traffic rooms like kitchens and entryways. Hardwood is durable too, and one advantage it has over most materials is that it can be refinished rather than replaced as it shows wear.

2. Is waterproof flooring waterproof?

If you choose luxury vinyl flooring, you get 100% waterproof protection in every room. Even in flood conditions, these floors are not damaged.

They resist humidity, dampness, moisture, spills, and more. And with professional installation, they can last more than 20 years.

3. Which floor covering is best for pets?

Luxury vinyl is a trendy choice for a pet-friendly home. With the combination of waterproof features and wear resistance, it's a fantastic option.

Stone, tile, and hardwood flooring are also excellent choices. We can tell you more about choosing the best new floors and options while you're here.

4. Which floors are easiest to install?

Both luxury vinyl and laminate can have you walking on your floors in a single day. You'll love the quick and easy installation and the ease of cleaning and care.
