Luxury vinyl plank provides a plank format, while luxury vinyl tile offers tile-shaped designs. The exact product determines the installation method, approved room uses, preparation and care requirements. Compare samples in the room’s lighting and beside existing cabinetry.
A kitchen, entryway and basement may need different assessments. Surface-water claims do not mean the complete room is protected from flooding or moisture underneath the floor.

The installation scope should identify the condition of the substrate, any removal or repairs, the approved underlayment or adhesive and how the floor meets neighboring surfaces. Discuss floor height at appliances and doors before work begins.
For floating products, perimeter and fixed-object details must follow the selected instructions. Avoid treating every click-together product as interchangeable.
We listen to your goals, review the space and discuss a realistic scope for your home and budget.
