Is luxury vinyl plank (LVP) truly 100% waterproof?

Yes. Luxury vinyl plank is constructed from PVC, which is inherently waterproof throughout the entire plank — not just at the surface. This makes LVP and LVT ideal for any room in the home, including bathrooms, kitchens, and mudrooms. Proper installation with sealed joints ensures maximum moisture protection.

Does LVP need to acclimate to my home before installation?

Most luxury vinyl plank products require a 24 to 48 hour acclimation period before installation, allowing the product to adjust to your home's temperature and humidity levels. Our installation teams follow manufacturer guidelines on acclimation as a standard part of every project.

Can I install luxury vinyl over my existing concrete or wood floor?

Yes, in most cases. Luxury vinyl plank can be installed as a floating floor over many existing substrates, including concrete, hardwood, and existing vinyl, provided the surface is clean, flat, and structurally sound. Our team inspects your subfloor before recommending the appropriate installation method.

How long does a luxury vinyl floor typically last?

High-quality luxury vinyl flooring with a thick wear layer typically lasts 20 to 25 years or longer with proper care. The wear layer thickness, measured in mils, is the primary indicator of long-term durability. Our showroom team will help you select the right wear layer for your household's traffic level.

How do I clean and maintain my vinyl plank floors?

Luxury vinyl floors are simple to maintain. Regular sweeping or dry mopping removes daily debris, and damp mopping with a pH-neutral cleaner keeps the surface looking fresh. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steam mops, and excessive water, which can seep into seams over time.

What is the difference between LVP and LVT?

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) mimics the look of wood planks and is installed in a staggered, plank-style pattern. Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) replicates the appearance of stone, ceramic, or concrete tile and is installed in a tile-pattern layout. Both are 100% waterproof and available in a wide range of styles at our Newnan showroom.
