Durability meets design with waterproof flooring, making it a top choice for modern homes. Built to withstand everyday life, these floors offer the perfect balance of style and resilience, ensuring your space stays beautiful without the worry of moisture damage. Whether you're looking for the rich look of hardwood, the sleek appeal of tile, or the versatility of luxury vinyl, waterproof flooring provides a worry-free solution for any room. Explore a range of options designed to handle whatever life throws your way without compromising on aesthetics.
Depending on the style of your home as well as your personal décor preferences, these are some of the waterproof flooring options available to you.
Vinyl flooring is affordable, easy to install, low maintenance, and there is a wide range of styles to choose from. Vinyl plank flooring and luxury vinyl tile are two of the most popular options. Some vinyl flooring is even made to mimic other types of flooring such as hardwood or stone. Its layered construction includes a waterproof core, making it highly resistant to moisture.
While LVP flooring is durable overall, if you want a waterproof flooring option that is firmer underfoot and highly resistant to foot traffic, consider installing a rigid vinyl plank in heavy-use areas.
Traditional hardwood is naturally porous, but new advancements have led to engineered waterproof hardwood flooring. New-generation hardwood flooring features polyurethane finishes and a stable core that prevents warping or swelling due to moisture exposure. You get the elegance of natural wood with the added bonus of enhanced durability.
Porcelain and ceramic tiles are inherently waterproof and resistant to scratches and have long been a preferred choice for moisture-prone areas. Available in a vast array of styles, sizes, and finishes, tile flooring offers timeless appeal and exceptional longevity. Its dense composition prevents water absorption, making it ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, and entryways.
Natural stone, such as granite, slate, or marble, is not only waterproof but one of the most durable options too. Even though stone is naturally water-resistant, certain varieties may require sealing to enhance their waterproof properties. Natural stone flooring is ideal for both indoor and outdoor spaces and the unique textures and colors add a touch of character to your home.
Bamboo flooring, particularly strand-woven and engineered bamboo, offers a durable and moisture-resistant option for homes. Made by compressing pulped bamboo under extreme pressure, strand-woven bamboo can be harder than some hardwood and better at resisting water exposure.
The difference comes down to durability. Waterproof flooring prevents damage from spills, splashes, and even standing water, making it a quality choice for moisture-prone spaces like bathrooms and basements.
Water-resistant flooring options offer some protection but can be affected by prolonged exposure. They’re a good choice for areas like kitchen flooring, where occasional spills happen but standing water isn’t a concern.
Professional installation ensures your waterproof flooring is expertly fitted for lasting durability and performance.
With professional installation, you get a beautiful, waterproof floor built to withstand everyday life, without the hassle.
The best waterproof flooring balances aesthetic, durability, and practicality. Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) delivers the look of wood or stone with 100% waterproof protection and minimal upkeep—an ideal choice for busy households and will ward off stains.
For a more natural feel, engineered hardwood with a waterproof core offers elegance with added moisture resistance, though it comes at a higher price. Tile and natural stone are the toughest options for high-traffic areas, they do require grout sealing to stay waterproof. Looking for an eco-friendly alternative? Strand-woven bamboo with a waterproof finish brings sustainability and a wood-like aesthetic to your space.
Consider your maintenance preferences—vinyl and bamboo need slightly more upkeep, while stone and tile require periodic sealing to stay in top shape.
Life happens—spills, splashes, and messes are inevitable. Waterproof flooring offers the perfect balance of design and durability, giving you peace of mind in every room. With a variety of designs to choose from, you don’t have to compromise on aesthetics to get long-lasting protection.
