Engineered wood flooring in a Baton Rouge, LA home from Wholesale Flooring & Granite

Can engineered hardwood be waterproof?


If both hardwood flooring and waterproof protection are essential to you, you might want to combine the two if possible. While traditional engineered materials are not 100% waterproof, you have some options, and we will talk about them in today's post.

When only engineered hardwood will do

If you are looking for great waterproof engineered hardwood, it's most important to note that not all engineered materials are waterproof. To take on this title, it must become a hybrid between engineered wood and luxury vinyl, with a 100% vinyl core material layer.

These materials are engineered vinyl plank, and while the core content is entirely waterproof, the outer wood pieces are still made of organic materials. Therefore, care should still be taken to ensure the best performance, especially in damp, humid areas, and our flooring professionals can tell you more about it.

These materials are just as quickly and easily installed as other floor coverings of their kind. When you're ready to start your project, we will ensure you see all the products that potentially give you the results you're looking for, so stop by today.
