What is waterproof composite flooring?

Published: April 6, 2017

Resilient flooring is a fairly new flooring category but one that is growing in popularity. Resilient floors bring a highly authentic appearance of stone, ceramic or wood at a lower cost. Don’t mistake these floors as cheap options though – they are extremely durable, easy to clean, beautiful floors. Perhaps one of their best qualities is their high resistance to moisture. In fact, one category of resilient flooring is 100% waterproof: waterproof composite flooring.

Is it hardwood or is it resilient flooring? The appearance is hard to tell apart!

Designed to keep liquid out

Waterproof composite floors are made to look like wood, stone or ceramic but are able to be installed places those floors cannot. Designed with a locking technology that keeps liquids from seeping into and below the floor, waterproof composite flooring lets you pick any floor you love for any room in your home.

Resilient flooring lets you put the look of wood into any room in your home.

Bathrooms, kitchens… even basements can now have the look of beautiful natural stone or hardwood with no concerns about sub-floor imperfections or water problems. This new generation of flooring truly makes any look available to homeowners.

Perhaps the perfect floor for pets

Have pets and concerned about getting the best floor for you and your furry family member? Waterproof composite flooring stands up to accidents, spills from water bowls or dirt and moisture tracked in on paws. You might have thought you had to abandon the welcoming look of a warm wood floor but waterproof composite flooring makes that dream accessible!

More about resilient flooring

In a nutshell, resilient flooring is this generation’s vinyl flooring. All new manufacturing techniques have developed a floor that carries all the benefits of vinyl flooring but with an appearance that can fool even the most discerning eye. Extremely durable, easy to clean and waterproof, resilient flooring – also known as luxury vinyl – is the perfect floor for any room in your house. It’s particularly popular for basements, kitchens and bathrooms.

Hard surface floors are a hot trend

More and more homeowners are discovering the many benefits of hard surface flooring. Flooring such as tile, hardwood, luxury vinyl and stone work well with many of today’s design trends. Add in the fact that these flooring choices are easy to clean and long-lasting and you have a floor that works well in many homes.
