Waterproof, good with pets, quiet for condos, fine over radiant heat or wide plank: pick what matters and see the floors that meet it.

Vinyl Flooring Installation - King City

Quick answer

Pick what matters most in your home and see the floors that meet it. Each list comes from the floors’ own spec sheets: a floor shows up only when its maker states it.

Pick what matters most

WATERPROOF

Floors whose spec sheet says waterproof: SPC and WPC vinyl, waterproof laminate and tile.

How we sorted them

  • Waterproof: the spec sheet says the floor is waterproof. Water-resistant floors are left out.
  • Good with pets: laminate rated AC4 or AC5, and vinyl with a wear layer of 20 mil (0.5 mm) or more.
  • Quiet for condos: floors with a sound rating (IIC or STC) on the sheet, or a pad attached to the plank. Your building sets the rating it needs, and we bring the underlay sheet for the board.
  • Radiant heat: the maker lists the floor for use over in-floor heating.
  • Wide plank: planks 8 inches wide or more.
