Water can do a number on flooring, leading to costly replacements and increasing slip and fall risks. If you’re considering a home upgrade, waterproof flooring may be the ideal option. It’s both an attractive and functional enhancement, and the years of use you’ll get going forward will outpace other flooring options.

Reasons to Install Waterproof Flooring

1. Seamless Cleanup

Spills create slip and fall risks on hardwood floors, and when water seeps between the cracks, it will warp the planks. With carpet, water exposure damages fibers and leads to mold growth. Waterproof floors are designed to repel water, making cleanups easy. You won’t have to worry about unsightly damage or stains, as well as the high repair costs that come with flooring maintenance.

2. Versatility

If aesthetics are a primary goal, waterproof flooring will fulfill all your design needs. It comes in laminate, wood-plastic composite, porcelain, and vinyl options, all of which have various stains and patterns. Wood-plastic is especially useful for pool decks and patios, and all can serve as an attractive accent or a defining feature of a room. For best utilization, consider waterproof flooring in kitchens and bathrooms.

3. Preventing Moisture Damage

Spills aren’t the only water risk to flooring. If you have a humid home, moisture in the air will also damage and warp the flooring. With waterproof flooring, you won’t worry about environmental factors ruining your floor, and if you run a humidifier in your home, you won’t suffer any consequences.
