SPC7

SPC7 goes narrow. At 5.99 inches wide and 48.04 inches long, the boards give a classic strip-floor look that fits older Toronto semis, hallways and smaller bedrooms, where a wide plank can look oversized.

What sits underneath matters too. The 8 mm total is a 6 mm plank plus a 2 mm attached pad, the thickest pad in Toucan's SPC range alongside SPC9, and that extra cushion helps cut footstep noise in condos and upstairs rooms. A 20 mil wear layer protects the surface against pets and kids, and the texture is described as real antique wood. Because the product is listed as 100% waterproof, a kitchen or basement is no problem. The drop-lock edges click the floor together as a floating installation, so no adhesive goes down. Warranty on the listing is 30 years residential, 10 years commercial.

Ten colours are available, most of them light: Bar Harbor, Stonington, New Castle, Castine, Cape Elizabeth, Kennebunkport, Oyster Bay, Lubec, Camden and Revere. 22FLOORING supplies and installs SPC7 across Toronto and the GTA, with vinyl installation from $3.20 per square foot.
