How to Buy Vinyl Flooring

Vinyl flooring is one of the hottest flooring options on the market because it’s affordable, comes in various colors and patterns, and is easy to install. Often compared to laminate flooring, vinyl is also made from man-made materials to resemble natural materials like wood and stone.

Unlike laminate, vinyl flooring is a huge category with a plethora of different types, installations, constructions, and styles. There are a lot of options, and it can be easy to get overwhelmed at first, but we’re here to help.

Types of Vinyl Flooring

Vinyl flooring is available in planks, tiles, and sheets. Each type has its own unique look and installation properties.

Vinyl Plank Flooring

The most popular vinyl flooring option is vinyl plank flooring. These planks typically mimic the look of solid hardwood, offering a warm, inviting, and expensive feel to your home. They also come in a variety of colors and patterns.

There are two different types of vinyl planks: luxury vinyl planks (LVP) and waterproof vinyl planks (WPC and SPC). Luxury vinyl planks feature high-quality visuals, but they are not 100% waterproof. Meanwhile, waterproof vinyl planks will have a stone core (SPC) or wood core (WPC).

Today’s vinyl planks even offer the texture and character of trending hardwood options, including handscraped and wirebrushed looks.

One of the major benefits of choosing vinyl plank flooring is the easy, approachable, DIY installation. Many vinyl planks come as interlocking or “floating” floors and simply click together, similar to laminate. Other DIY options include loose lay (the easiest – just lay your floor down and you’re done!) and peel and stick.

For high traffic and commercial installation, you can always glue down your vinyl planks for more permanence.

Luxury Vinyl Tile Flooring

Luxury vinyl tiles (LVT), like traditional porcelain and ceramic tiles, often mimic the look of natural stone. Like ceramic tile, vinyl tiles offer the beautiful look of popular stone flooring options like marble at a fraction of the price. And with way less maintenance!

Vinyl tiles are quite approachable and DIY-friendly. Most vinyl tile options come as interlocking or “floating” floors and just click together similar to laminate. Loose lay or peel and stick options are also available.

You can also glue down the vinyl if you need some extra stability in high traffic and commercial areas.

Sheet Vinyl Flooring

Sheet vinyl flooring is commonly referred to as a vinyl roll because...that’s exactly what it is! A big roll of vinyl flooring that you lay over your subfloor.

Vinyl sheet flooring is the original vinyl flooring option. Although it comes in a variety of looks, including wood and stone, this flooring is not quite as convincing as planks or tiles because it is in sheet form. However, vinyl sheet flooring is typically super affordable, which makes it a popular choice for commercial spaces.

You can install vinyl sheet flooring on your own if it has a fiberglass backing, making it even more budget-friendly since you don’t have to hire an installer. However, other sheet vinyl without that fiberglass backing usually needs to be glued down, which is not super approachable for the DIY homeowner.

Vinyl Flooring Uses

Vinyl flooring is known for its versatility. It can be specially designed to suit just about any application.

In fact, you’ll find vinyl almost everywhere, including homes, apartments, business offices, and even grocery stores. Have you noticed your local market looks like it got a big upgrade with hardwood floors? It’s almost surely wood-look vinyl and not the real thing.

Residential Vinyl Flooring

Homeowners love vinyl’s gorgeous wood and stone looks, easy DIY capabilities, low maintenance, and affordable price point.

Luxury vinyl and waterproof vinyl flooring is the fastest growing flooring option on the market. These days, you’ll see homeowners of all ages and lifestyles updating their homes with beautiful, durable vinyl floors.

Popular for flips, real estate agents, and the long-term homeowner, vinyl flooring’s benefits far outweigh the dated idea that vinyl is somehow tackier than laminate or other man-made options.

Top-rated residential vinyl flooring products include:

TritonCORE Pro: An excellent choice for busy homes with pets and kids.
Adura Max Apex 16" Waterproof Planks: A stylish high-variation plank that will add personality to any room.

Commercial Vinyl Flooring

The commercial sector is where vinyl flooring has always been popular. It’s super durable and quite affordable – two priorities for most business owners.

In the past, commercial spaces often used vinyl composition tile (VCT). VCT is very cheap and it has to be glued down. Many schools used this flooring, and some still do to a certain extent. However, it’s not very durable, it requires more effort to maintain, and you have to heat it up to remove it. Naturally, people started looking for something more durable and low-maintenance.

As vinyl has expanded with new waterproof core and rigid core options, it has skyrocketed in the world of commercial flooring. Vinyl flooring now makes it possible to display a realistic wood look in temperamental spaces like commercial kitchens, restaurants, grocery stores, and schools.

For commercial use, you’ll want to check out a rigid core vinyl flooring option with a thick, durable wear layer to hold up to the heavy foot traffic of a commercial setting.

Top-rated commercial vinyl flooring products include:

COREtec Pro Plus Rigid Core Vinyl Planks: Featuring high-quality visuals and realistic textures for a durable, timeless floor.
Mannington Adura Max Waterproof Plank: These planks feature True Detail Styling, for an even more realistic hardwood look and feel.

Waterproof Vinyl: WPC vs. SPC

One reason that waterproof vinyl flooring can be confusing is that there are two different types: WPC and SPC. What do these terms mean? Well, it’s all about the core layer.

WPC and rigid core vinyl both feature a layered construction, but the core layer, which makes the flooring waterproof, is composed of different materials.

Let's break this down so you have a better idea of where to begin.

WPC Vinyl Flooring

WPC vinyl flooring is best known for being 100% waterproof. It is luxury vinyl flooring amped up a notch with a special waterproof core that makes it perfect for any room in the house.

WPC stands for wood-plastic composite, which makes up the waterproof core. The WPC core is enhanced with a foaming agent, making it slightly softer and more comfortable in addition to being completely waterproof.

To give you a better understanding, here are the layers of WPC:

Wear layer: This top layer protects the surface from the wear and tear of everyday life. The thicker the wear layer, the better that protection!
Printed vinyl layer: This layer features the gorgeous wood or stone visuals that make vinyl so popular as an alternative to natural materials. It can also have decorative patterns.
WPC core: This is where the magic happens. WPC flooring contains a solid, waterproof WPC core. No matter how much water it encounters, it won’t swell or warp.
Backing layer: This bottom layer of your plank provides a sturdy base, and sometimes comes with an attached underlayment.

Shop WPC Vinyl

SPC Vinyl Flooring

Rigid core luxury vinyl flooring features a stone-plastic composite core. That’s why rigid core is also known as SPC vinyl. It’s the most durable waterproof vinyl flooring option on the market. It has a similar construction to WPC, but it comes with an ultra-tough core, which is where the name “rigid core” comes from.

People used to think that thicker vinyl flooring was better. But with rigid core vinyl, the thickness of your vinyl doesn’t matter. It’s thinner than WPC and more durable.

So what is giving this thin plank such heavy-duty performance? Let’s take a look at the layers and find out:

Wear layer:Wear Layer: The wear layer protects your floor from wear and tear. In the case of wear layers, thicker still means better. Rigid core flooring often comes with thick wear layer options for heavy-duty protection.
Printed Vinyl Layer: This layer features hyper-realistic printed imagery that makes the vinyl look so much like stone and wood.
SPC Core: Rigid core flooring contains a solid, waterproof center that won’t ripple or swell no matter how much liquid you subject it to. This core is ultra-dense with no foaming agents like you’ll find in traditional WPC flooring. It offers slightly less softness underfoot, but it makes the flooring extra durable.
Backing Layer: This is the solid foundation of your plank. Often, the backing will also come with a pre-attached cork underlayment.

Wood-Look Vinyl Flooring

Wood looks are most common in vinyl planks. At this point, the visual technology is so advanced that it can be hard to determine that it’s not real hardwood just by looking at it.

Top-notch options like WPC and rigid core vinyl flooring even have the feel of real hardwood, complete with the look of graining and knots that have been embossed to follow the pattern in the print.

Features of Vinyl Flooring

There are a ton of vinyl flooring products to choose from. So what sets some options apart from each other?

After you’ve decided on the type and style of vinyl you’re after, it’s time to take a look at the extra perks. Knowing what features are important to you will help you find your ideal product. Simply filter your search by checking for the features you care about.

Waterproof: If your new vinyl floor is for the kitchen, bathroom, or basement, you’ll want something 100% waterproof. That means your floor can be totally submerged in water, and not only live to tell the story, but also retain all of its beauty.
Attached underlay: No matter what type of floor you buy, an underlayment is essential. They provide more stability to the floor and ensure that no bumps or irregularities in the subfloor pass through. Many vinyl products come with an attached underlay so you don’t even have to think about it.
Embossed in register: Registered embossing means the texture on the surface of the plank exactly matches the visuals of the wood grain. For example, a wood knot visual feels like a wood knot, giving you a more realistic experience.

How to Install Vinyl Flooring

DIYers can install vinyl flooring in several different ways. Let’s take a look!

Peel and Stick Vinyl

The true DIY dream, peel and stick vinyl tiles and planks go on your floor just like stickers. Simply remove the backing and stick the adhesive side of your vinyl directly on your floor. If you passed kindergarten, you can install these babies!

Shop Peel & Stick Vinyl

Loose Lay Vinyl

Okay, this might be even easier than peel and stick! Loose lay vinyl flooring requires no adhesives or interlocks. The flooring has a gripped backing that stays snug against your subfloor so you simply lay the vinyl down on top and voila! Your work here is done.

For high traffic and commercial areas, we recommend taping or gluing around the perimeter, or fully gluing down the floor to hold it in place.

Shop Loose Lay Vinyl

Interlocking Vinyl

Interlocking or floating floors are one of the most popular DIY options on the flooring market. This style mimics traditional click-together laminate floors.

To install these floating floors, simply click and lock your tiles or planks together. Each product comes with specific manufacturer instructions to lead you to success.

Interlocking vinyl planks and tiles are extremely popular with the DIY homeowner because you can achieve a professional look and feel without calling in the experts.

Shop Interlocking Vinyl Flooring

Glue Down Vinyl

Glue-down vinyl flooring is especially popular in high-traffic commercial spaces. Gluing down your vinyl is the best way to ensure the sturdiest permanent solution.

While you can take this project on yourself, we recommend most customers seek a professional installer.

Shop Glue Down Vinyl

Groutable Vinyl Tiles

If you want a stone look without the stone, groutable tiles are the way to go. These look like real stone, and with the extra capabilities of adding grout, they might as well be the real thing.

These tiles can be installed using the glue-down method or using double-sided carpet tape. The next step is adding the grout.

Find an LVT-friendly grout for your tiles, and grout them just like you would a real stone tile. Pretty cool, right?

Shop Groutable Vinyl Tiles

Vinyl Flooring Wear Layers

Even the highest quality vinyl floor needs protection. Think of the wear layer like your vinyl’s bodyguard. It protects that beautiful surface from wear and tear as you go about your day.

A thinner wear layer means your floor is much more susceptible to wearing down faster. If it’s in a low-traffic area, you can get away with it, but on a floor that will be lived on, we don’t recommend skimping out on this piece of the puzzle.

Here is the range of wear layer thicknesses and the traffic recommendations for each.

6MIL - 10MIL (Good): A wear layer this thick is perfect for residential use, capable of handling even the most hectic homes.
12MIL (Better): This is moderately thick, and ideal for residential and light commercial use.
20MIL+ (Best): The toughest of the tough. This wear layer thickness is commercially rated for high traffic environments

TritonCORE Pro 7" Rigid Core Vinyl Planks

“It's been a month since I installed this flooring in my apartment and so far I can only say good things about this floor. I have been asked multiple times since then if it is real wood which is really good to hear since real wood can be very pricey to begin with. You cannot go wrong with the price at all and that’s another thing I love about these floors. I am happy with my purchase and have already recommended this to my friends!”
