Common questions about flooring types, durability, moisture resistance, and room selection.
Tile, LVP, and LVT are popular options for kitchens and bathrooms because they handle moisture better than hardwood or standard laminate.
Hardwood is made from solid wood planks, while engineered wood has a real wood veneer over a stable layered core. Engineered wood handles humidity changes better.
Yes. LVP and LVT are durable, low-maintenance, and often water-resistant or waterproof, making them a strong option for pets, kids, kitchens, basements, and high-traffic spaces.
Sometimes. Loose boards, cracked tile, worn sections, or minor damage may be repairable. If the flooring is severely worn, uneven, or water-damaged, replacement may be the better long-term choice.
