If you want a home that can withstand the challenges of daily life with a busy family, waterproof flooring is a must. That’s because water damage is one of the most common and costly home repair scenarios imaginable, and it has the potential to ruin your subfloor, cause mold growth, and even compromise your home’s structural integrity. In spaces prone to higher levels of moisture and water exposure – your bathroom, kitchen, basement – waterproof flooring can make a world of difference, and thankfully, the options available, particularly at Lumber Liquidators, are plentiful.
First things first, though – what is that makes flooring waterproof? This technology is a blend of advanced construction materials and slick design principles, working in tandem to create a barrier against moisture while maintaining resistance against wear, ease of installation/maintenance, and, of course, premium aesthetics for your home.
When it comes to vinyl flooring options, for instance, the heart of this innovation lies in the use of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is a synthetic material with exceptional resistance to water, chemicals, and wear. Without getting too deep into all the chemistry, its molecular structure creates a layer that’s impermeable to water, but that’s just a part of what gives these waterproof flooring options their outstanding abilities, as innovative design strategies play an equally important role in ensuring long-term performance in challenging environments.
Most waterproof flooring makes use of layers – meaning there are multiple materials stacked and bonded together to create their planks. So, in addition to that layer of PVC, many waterproof options include a waterproof core as well (a stone-plastic composite or a similar material) which, in addition to keeping out water help ensure these floors remain stable even when they’re in humid environments.
When combined with a click-lock installation system, the likelihood of water infiltrating through gaps between planks is reduced, and the right underlayment used in conjunction with these flooring options creates an additional protective barrier against subfloor moisture and its associated maladies! As you can see, the synergy between waterproof flooring and savvy design principles is key, and it’s what makes modern waterproof flooring options so potent.
At Lumber Liquidators, we’ve built a reputation on providing a wide range of quality flooring options, and when it comes to waterproof products, that same statement applies. We know what makes a waterproof floor great, and we also know that not every customer’s specific needs are going to be the same, so our selection switches it up, catering to the diverse lifestyle preferences of our diverse clientele. Let’s take a walkthrough, shall we?
