Debunking Common Myths About LVP Flooring

 

Let’s clear up some misunderstandings:

  • “Vinyl looks fake.”
    Not anymore. The textures in Explorer’s Cove mimic wood so closely, it’s hard to tell the difference.

  • “Vinyl flooring is flimsy.”
    This collection has a rigid SPC core, meaning it’s strong enough for heavy foot traffic and large furniture.

  • “It can’t go in bathrooms.”
    SolidTech is fully waterproof. It won’t expand, contract, or lift with moisture.
