All Vinyl Flooring

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

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.

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

One of the major benefits to choosing vinyl plank flooring is the easy, approachable, DIY installation. Most vinyl plank options 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 a permanent solution.

• COREtec Plus 5”: Waterproof engineered vinyl planks that feature a cork underlayment for a quiet, warm floor

Vinyl tiles, 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!

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. It’s what people usually remember when they think about vinyl flooring.

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.

Unfortunately, vinyl sheet flooring usually requires a professional installation using specific techniques that are not super approachable for the DIY homeowner.

• Shaw Prometheus Fiberglass: Attractive look of tile, wood or checkered flooring to any space, easy to maintain with no grout lines to worry about.

Vinyl flooring is known for its versatility. This type of man-made flooring can be specially designed to suit just about any application.

In fact, you’ll find vinyl just about 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? Shhh...it’s almost surely vinyl.

Homeowners love vinyl’s gorgeous wood and stone looks, easy DIY capabilities, low maintenance and affordable price point. Once upon a time, hardwood, laminate and tile were the only acceptable options for a gorgeous floor in your home.

Not anymore!

Luxury vinyl flooring is the fastest growing flooring option on the market. Now, 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 7" Waterproof Vinyl Planks

The commercial sector is kinda where vinyl flooring has always hit its stride. I mean, it’s super durable and quite affordable - two priorities for most business owners.

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 and grocery stores.

For commercial use, you’ll want to check out a WPC or Rigid Core vinyl flooring option with a thick, durable wear layer to hold up to the heavy foot traffic and wear and tear of a commercial application.

Top-rated commercial vinyl flooring products include:

• COREtec Pro Plus Rigid Core Vinyl Planks
• COREtec Plus 12” Waterproof Vinyl Tiles

One reason that vinyl can be a confusing flooring subject is because there are so many different types. LVT, WPC, Rigid Core...the list goes on, and usually with confusing abbreviations that leave the average consumer scratching their head wondering where the heck to start.

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

Your traditional vinyl flooring is, for lack of a better term, the bargain pile. It encompasses vinyl sheets, peel and stick vinyl tiles and planks, and all non-luxury vinyl flooring options.

This is where vinyl flooring can get its bad rap. Many people don’t know that there is a whole world of vinyl flooring beyond the bargain barrel.

These traditional vinyl flooring options are typically thin, bendy and unrealistic in their wood and stone looks compared to modern-day luxury vinyl. They are great for a cheap vinyl flooring option and covering small, low-traffic areas, like closets.

But for beautiful looks that last? You’ll want to take a step up into the luxury vinyl world.

Luxury vinyl flooring encompasses the majority of vinyl plank flooring and vinyl tile flooring you see on the market today. The biggest thing that differentiates luxury vinyl from traditional vinyl flooring is the realistic visuals.

Luxury vinyl flooring, often referred to as LVF, features a high-quality printed vinyl layer with those stunning natural wood and stone images that make the floor shine. It also, typically, comes with a thicker, beefier wear layer that protects these images from scratches, dents and overall aging.

Most luxury vinyl flooring comes with easy, DIY installation options and, often, great manufacturer warranties. Depending on the quality of the vinyl (even the luxury vinyl flooring world has a lot of variance), you can install luxury vinyl flooring in both residential and high-traffic commercial spaces.

WPC is flooring industry lingo for Wood Plastic Composite. Sometimes people use it to abbreviate Waterproof Core, which also works because WPC vinyl flooring does come with a waterproof core.

Yes, that means WPC flooring is 100% waterproof. It is luxury vinyl flooring amped up a notch with a special waterproof core that makes it perfect for just about any room in the house and any business.

Waterproof vinyl flooring is also known for having top-tier imagery with the most realistic wood and stone looks available on the market. It typically comes as a DIY-friendly interlocking or “floating” floor, but can also be glued down for a permanent solution.

Rigid core vinyl flooring is exactly what you’d expect: WPC vinyl flooring with a tough, sturdy, rigid core. The rigid core allows you to install your vinyl floor in areas you wouldn’t normally be able to.

You see, most subfloors are inherently uneven. It’s just not common to have a perfectly smooth subfloor hanging out waiting for you to come put your dream floor on top of it.

Most of the time you have existing flooring. Or uneven concrete. Or a number of other bumps and hiccups causing your subfloor to be something other than the desired pancake-flat surface most installation instructions call for.

This new rigid plank technology helps to eliminate ripples and waves that are often caused by uneven subfloors.

Like WPC, rigid core vinyl flooring has the highest quality imagery and the most durable wear layers. It also includes many DIY installation options, as well as permanent glue-down solutions.

Finding the right floor is kinda like finding the right pair of running shoes. The most important part is how well it will perform and hold up to the elements. Functionality is key.

Really though, you just want the pretty one. I know. This is every runner’s struggle. But it doesn’t have to be yours!

The great news is you can find vinyl flooring that meets all your criteria and still choose the look that’s right for you. There are so many gorgeous natural-looking options at every price point that you’re sure to find the perfect look. In the perfect color. At the perfect size.

Wood looks are most common in vinyl planks. Although wood-look vinyl has previously appeared cheap and dated, recent technological advancements have achieved looks that parallel real hardwood.

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 given an emboss following the pattern in the print.

Stone-look vinyl flooring will not have the cold, hard feel of natural stone or ceramic tile. Instead, you get vinyl’s comforting warmth and resiliency with the realistic, upscale look of natural stone.

Luxury stone-look vinyl flooring is shockingly realistic and looks stylish in any modern home. Homeowners typically choose vinyl over ceramic tile to get the aforementioned warmth and resiliency. Vinyl, like tile, is ultra-durable; however, vinyl is way more comfortable underfoot.

From the classic black and white checkerboard floor to space and even stars and stripes, there are plenty of fun, unique vinyl flooring options perfect for classrooms, kids’ rooms and more.

You can find waterproof vinyl flooring options mimicking all the hottest colors in natural stone and wood flooring colors, such as white marble, chalky slate, hickory or acacia wood, etc. Find trending gray looks or go with an airy blonde wood or white stone.

You can also find fun, bright colors in decorative looks for something a little different. These options don’t typically resemble your natural materials, but they’re a fun upgrade if you’re looking for that splash of color.

You can even filter your search by color if shade is a determining factor.

*Tip: Lighter colors will make your room look bigger. Check out the marble stone blonde or wood looks.

We know, we know - there are a ton of vinyl flooring products to choose from. What sets brands apart from each other? What’s the difference between a TritonCORE vinyl plank and a Vidara plank?

After you’ve decided on the type of core you need for your use and know what style 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:

Is your new vinyl floor for the kitchen, bathroom or basement? Then you’ll want something 100% waterproof, meaning your floor can be totally submerged in water and not only live to tell the story, but retain all of its beauty.

Do you care about supporting local businesses? Many of our top products were made right here in the USA, so you can feel good about your purchase. Someone is out there manufacturing, printing, sealing, and constructing your beautiful flooring. They may even be in your community! That’s a feeling you can’t beat.USA-made flooring also follows sustainability practices.

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.

DIY-ers can install vinyl flooring in several different ways. Many of them are DIY-friendly. Let’s take a look.

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!

Okay, this might be even easier than peel and stick! Loose lay vinyl flooring requires no adhesives or locks. 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.

We do recommend including tape around the perimeter to hold things in place. Loose lay application without an adhesive is not appropriate for commercial applications.

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.

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 professional help.

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, these might as well be real stone.

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?

There are two main factors that determine the quality of your vinyl: thickness and wear layer. It’s pretty simple, thick vinyl + thick wear layer = higher quality*. Of course, this doesn’t mean you need 8mm vinyl flooring for every use – every situation is different and has different requirements.

Even the highest quality WPC vinyl floor needs protection. Think of the wear layer like your vinyl’s bodyguard. Do you want Screech from Saved by the Bell keeping you safe, or do you want The Rock?

A thinner wear layer means your floor is much more susceptible to scratching, scarring and damage. 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.

*This is usually true. However, new rigid core vinyl flooring comes in a thinner plank with an ultra-thick wear layer. This vinyl flooring has been specially engineered to withstand high-traffic commercial areas in a thin plank. It’s the exception to the rule.

Who doesn’t love free? We have the best news! All our vinyl tiles and planks come with free shipping (after minimum quantity) delivered right to your doorstep.
