Why Choose Mohawk SolidTech Founder’s Trace?

  • Scratch and Dent Resistance: Holds up well in high-traffic spaces, including homes with kids or pets.

  • Easy Installation: Click-lock design means no glue or nails. Ideal for DIY installs.

  • Stylish Options: Choose from natural wood tones with realistic grain patterns and textures.

     

 

How to Choose the Right Color and Style

  1. Consider Your Space
    Light tones like Yellow Wish work well in smaller or darker rooms to help make them feel open. Deeper shades like Burnt Sienna bring warmth to large, open areas.

  2. Think About Traffic
    If you have pets or kids, a mid-toned floor like Fossil Gray can hide dirt and scuffs better than lighter options.

  3. Match Your Style
    Look at your walls, furniture, and cabinetry. These floors come in versatile tones that work with rustic, modern, and traditional interiors.

     

 

Debunking Common Myths About Luxury Vinyl Plank

 

Myth 1: All LVP is the same
Not true. Founder’s Trace uses a durable SPC core and includes features like an attached pad and textured surface that low-cost vinyl doesn’t offer.

Myth 2: Vinyl isn’t durable
Founder’s Trace is designed to stand up to wear and tear, with resistance to scratches, dents, and moisture.

Myth 3: Vinyl looks fake
Each plank is made with high-definition visuals and realistic wood grain textures that look natural and feel authentic underfoot.
