Kitchens, laundries, hallways and rentals are just the start. Vinyl flooring performs well in almost any setting that calls for a combination of durability and easy upkeep. It’s especially useful in homes with pets or kids thanks to its scratch resistance and soft feel underfoot. Plus, the range of colours and patterns means you can get the look of timber or stone without the extra maintenance. It's also a great option for covering large floor areas while staying on budget.

With the right installation, vinyl flooring can deliver long-term value and reliability wherever you need it. It’s a versatile option worth considering.

What is vinyl flooring made of?

Vinyl flooring is a synthetic product made primarily from polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It typically consists of several layers: a wear layer for durability, a printed design layer that mimics wood, stone or tile, a core layer for strength and a backing layer for stability. Some modern vinyl floors, like luxury vinyl planks (LVP) or luxury vinyl tiles (LVT), also include rigid cores made of wood plastic composite (WPC) or stone plastic composite (SPC). These provide added durability, waterproofing and dimensional stability. Vinyl flooring is manufactured using heat and pressure to fuse layers, creating a durable and versatile floor covering suitable for both residential and commercial spaces.

What are the different types of vinyl flooring?

Vinyl flooring comes in several types including sheet vinyl, vinyl planks and vinyl tiles. Sheet vinyl is rolled out in large sections, ideal for moisture-prone areas like bathrooms. Vinyl planks (LVP) resemble hardwood and click together for a floating floor installation. Vinyl tiles (LVT) replicate stone or ceramic tiles and can be glued down or clicked together. There’s also hybrid flooring, which combines vinyl with rigid core materials like WPC or SPC for added stability. Each type varies in appearance, thickness and installation method, making it important to choose the right option based on room function, foot traffic and desired look.

Is vinyl flooring waterproof?

Yes, most vinyl flooring is waterproof, making it an excellent choice for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and basements. Its waterproof nature comes from its synthetic PVC composition, which resists moisture and doesn’t absorb water like timber or carpet. Luxury vinyl and hybrid options often have tightly locked seams or glued joints to prevent water from seeping through. However, while the material itself is waterproof, improper installation or standing water over time can still cause mould or damage to the subfloor. Always follow installation guidelines and clean up spills promptly to maintain flooring performance and longevity in wet environments.
