Questions homeowners ask
Is luxury vinyl plank truly 100% waterproof?
Yes. LVP planks are impervious to water and will not swell, buckle, or rot even if completely submerged during a basement puddle or plumbing leak.
Can LVP be installed over existing ceramic tile?
Yes, provided the tile is firmly bonded and grout lines are skim-coated flat with floor patch to prevent telegraphing.
