Living Room: Style Meets Durability
The living room is the heart of the home — a place for relaxing, gathering, and entertaining. You need a flooring material that’s both stylish and durable enough for foot traffic.
- ✅ Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) – Wood-look floors with easy maintenance and durability.
- ✅ Carpet – Cozy and soft, ideal for family lounging.
- ✅ Engineered Wood – A beautiful alternative to solid wood with greater resilience.
Tip: Use floors that transition smoothly into adjacent spaces for a cohesive look.
Kitchen: Waterproof and Easy to Clean
Kitchens need flooring that handles spills, heat, and movement — without compromising on looks.
- ✅ Waterproof Vinyl – Durable, easy to clean, and comes in a wide variety of styles.
- ✅ Tile (Porcelain or Ceramic) – Water-resistant and long-lasting.
Avoid: Natural hardwood — unless expertly sealed, it can suffer from moisture damage.
Bathroom: All About Moisture Resistance
Bathrooms demand waterproof, slip-resistant flooring that can handle constant humidity.
- ✅ Vinyl (Click or Glue-Down) – Waterproof and easy to install.
- ✅ Porcelain/Ceramic Tile – Elegant, durable, and built for wet areas.
Tip: Look for slip-resistant textures for added safety in family or guest bathrooms.
Bedroom: Comfort Comes First
In bedrooms, comfort and quiet are the top priorities — especially for restful nights.
- ✅ Carpet – Soft, warm, and ideal for cozy spaces.
- ✅ Vinyl with Underlayment – Modern look with added softness and sound dampening.
- ✅ Engineered Wood – Stylish and durable when paired with a soft rug.
Basement: Durable, Water-Ready Flooring
Basements often deal with temperature changes and moisture. Choose flooring that stands up to both.
- ✅ Waterproof Vinyl – Excellent resistance to moisture and wear.
- ✅ Tile – Durable and ideal for utility or laundry areas.
- ✅ Carpet Tiles – Comfortable and easy to replace in case of damage.
