Today's luxury vinyl looks far better than it used to. Some lines use digital printing to avoid the repeating pattern that used to give vinyl away.

Vinyl Plank Questions From Local Homeowners

Luxury Vinyl Plank FAQs

Do you install luxury vinyl plank in Newport and Middletown?

Yes. We install luxury vinyl plank throughout Aquidneck Island and the surrounding area, including Newport, Middletown, Portsmouth, Jamestown, Tiverton, Little Compton, Bristol, Barrington, and Warren, with our own trusted crews. Our showroom is at 695 West Main Road in Middletown.

How much does vinyl plank installation cost in Rhode Island?

It depends on the product, the subfloor prep, and the size of the space, so any number online is a guess. We give you a clear, itemized price after a free in-home measure, with no surprises before you decide.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes. Every in-home measure and quote is free, with no commitment. Call 401-214-0285 and we will set it up.

Is luxury vinyl plank really waterproof?

LVP resists everyday spills and will not absorb water, but the phrase "100% waterproof" is misleading. After a real flood, moisture and mold can still get trapped underneath. It is excellent for spills and daily life, not a cure for a flood-prone room.

Is vinyl plank good for pets and kids?

Yes, it is one of the best choices for busy homes. Look for a scratch-resistant wear layer. No floor is truly scratch-proof, but quality LVP holds up well to pets, kids, and heavy traffic.

Should I get click or glue-down vinyl plank?

Click LVP is convenient and floats over the subfloor. Glue-down makes replacing a single damaged plank easier and can handle minor slopes. We will match the method to your room and how you live.

SPC or WPC vinyl plank?

WPC is softer and quieter underfoot. SPC is generally more dent-resistant. It really depends on the specific product and the room, so evaluate each one on its own. We will help you compare.

Should I consider laminate instead of vinyl plank?

Sometimes. Modern laminate often looks and feels more like real hardwood than vinyl does. Vinyl wins on water resistance. We carry both and will compare them honestly for your space.

Hardwood or vinyl plank, which should I choose?

Hardwood is timeless but shows more wear and dislikes moisture. Vinyl is tougher against water, pets, and heavy traffic. It comes down to the room and how you live. See our hardwood options to compare.

Can I install vinyl plank myself?

Click LVP is the most DIY-friendly flooring category, but the hard parts are usually the problem areas: uneven subfloors, transitions, and moisture. It is worth having a professional at least look at the space first.

Does my subfloor matter for vinyl plank?

A lot. An uneven subfloor can wreck a new floor. We check and prep the subfloor so the finished vinyl is flat, quiet, and long-lasting.

Can vinyl plank look like stone or tile?

Yes. Stone-look and tile-look LVP has come a long way and can be a smart, lower-maintenance choice over the real thing in the right room.

Can I put vinyl plank on stairs?

Yes, but LVP on stairs can be slippery in socks. We handle the stair details and nosings so it looks right and stays safe.

Where is your vinyl showroom, and what are your hours?

695 West Main Road, Middletown, RI. Open Monday to Friday 10 to 6, and Saturday 10 to 3. Stop in anytime, no appointment needed.
