At Eberhard Carpet One Floor & Home in Middletown, NJ, we’re dedicated to helping you navigate the shifting world of vinyl flooring. Here’s what you should know if you’re considering a new vinyl floor soon.

What Is Vinyl Flooring?

Vinyl flooring is made up of multiple layers, with each playing an important role in the floor’s performance. The base layer of vinyl flooring can be either cork or rubber, which absorbs excess noise. The center is typically a virgin PVC solid core that’s completely waterproof and provides stability.

Each top layer has a high-resolution image of wood or stone that may either be flat or embossed. These HD images make the floor look incredibly realistic and can enhance unique characteristics only found in natural materials. The final layer is the wear layer, which determines the durability of the floor.

What Types of Vinyl Flooring Are There?

There are two distinct types of vinyl flooring: vinyl tile and vinyl plank.

Vinyl tiles are available in all sorts of different textures, patterns, and sizes, making them incredibly useful for creating a gorgeous bathroom, kitchen, or entryway design. They’re also great for these high-moisture areas because vinyl tile comes in both waterproof and water-resistant varieties and is amazingly resilient to warping when exposed to humidity, heat, and heavy foot traffic. It also features a high-performance surface layer that is exceptionally resistant to stains and abrasions. The padded vinyl tiles are not only more comfortable to walk on, but they also won’t chip if something falls on them, unlike natural tile.

Vinyl plank flooring isn’t the same as solid or engineered hardwood. This is mostly due to its construction and the material it’s made of. Vinyl plank can be assembled with several layers of PVC or cork with a cushioned backing depending on the brand. This makes for a wearable floor that is softer underfoot than solid or engineered hardwood. Standing on the vinyl plank for long periods is more comfortable than standing on other flooring types. It’s stable against wear and high-traffic areas, is cost-effective, and looks like hardwood. Seeing wall-to-wall vinyl plank flooring has the same effect as hardwood in a home, it takes guests' breath away.

Is Vinyl Flooring Fully Waterproof?

Most vinyl floors are water-resistant but select vinyl flooring products are waterproof.

Waterproof vinyl floors keep liquids on the surface so that they don’t sink into the subfloor, making them smarter options for those with pets and little kids.

Offering us sheer persistence in plank and tile, this flooring manages whatever is tossed it's way. Even the toughest stain offenders are little match for waterproof vinyl!

Both vinyl planks and vinyl tiles are easy to maintain. Truly, all that’s required is an occasional sweep-up or light mopping. You’ll never need to sand, polish, or refinish again.
