When it finally comes time for new floors in the bathroom or kitchen, you want flooring that can withstand the water and humidity in these areas. The best option for these areas would be waterproof flooring.

Waterproof flooring is a wise investment for many different reasons. Many other flooring materials are waterproof, and some of them can give a boost to your home's value.

What kinds of waterproof flooring are there

No matter where you want to put your waterproof flooring, there is a style that can fit every room. Ceramic tile, natural stone, waterproof vinyl, and laminate flooring are different new floors from which you can choose.

Porcelain is a type of ceramic tile flooring and is naturally waterproof due to the process in which it is made.

Another style of waterproof flooring is natural stone, which is suitable for bathrooms, kitchens, and mudrooms. Stone flooring is usually sealed after installation and resealed many times during its lifespan to maintain waterproofing.

Consider extended variety

If you’re looking for a more stylish option that doesn’t necessarily have to be nailed down, Luxury vinyl flooring can be waterproof as well. Luxury vinyl planks from our flooring company can mimic hardwood flooring and are built so that they don’t peel, warp, or buckle when exposed to standing water.

Laminate flooring is also a good option for stylish waterproof flooring options. Although, most of the time, the company you choose provides you with the manufacturer's instructions, most state that waterproof laminate tolerates water without damage in one day.
