luxury vinyl flooring store Quality Floors Coverings in Leduc

What are the perks of LVP?

Durability, 100% waterproof, cost-effective alternative to Hardwood.

High-Traffic Resilience

Built to outlast the hustle. LVP features a commercial-grade wear layer engineered to rebound against pet claws, heavy furniture, and high heels without the permanent scuffing common in hardwood.

100% Waterproof

From dishwasher leaks to snow-melt entryways, LVP is impervious to moisture. This inorganic construction ensures your floors won't swell, buckle, or delaminate—keeping your subfloor protected.

Subfloor Immunity

Ideal for below-grade installations like Leduc basements. Because LVP is inorganic, it does not support the growth of mould or mildew, providing a safer, cleaner environment for your home.

LVP Flooring: Frequently Asked Questions

Is LVP truly waterproof for Leduc basements?

Absolutely. Our Luxury Vinyl Plank is 100% waterproof. Unlike laminate, which can swell, LVP is made of Stone Plastic Composite (SPC) that remains dimensionally stable even if submerged, making it the top choice for Alberta basements.

What wear layer do I need for pets and kids?

For high-traffic Leduc homes, we recommend a 20-mil wear layer. This commercial-grade coating provides a thick shield against scratches from pet claws and the daily wear and tear of a busy family.

Does LVP require a specialized underlayment?

Most of our premium inventory at Quality Floor Coverings comes with a pre-attached IXPE or cork underlayment. This simplifies installation, improves sound dampening, and adds a layer of thermal insulation against cold concrete subfloors.

How does LVP handle the Alberta climate?

LVP is ideal for our extreme temperature swings. Unlike solid hardwood that cracks in dry winters, LVP’s rigid core prevents significant expansion and contraction, ensuring your floors stay beautiful year-round.

Can I install LVP over my existing tile?

Yes, as long as the tile is level and well-bonded. This "floating" installation method saves you time and money on demolition, allowing for a fast transformation of your space.
