Let’s be real—life gets messy. Between Ohio’s unpredictable weather, pets, kids, and the occasional spill, your floors need to be more than just pretty. They need to be resilient.
That’s why waterproof flooring is one of the fastest-growing categories at Floorz—and it’s changing how people think about durability and design.
Why Waterproof? Because Life Happens
From snowy boots in winter to wet towels after bath time, waterproof flooring:
-
Repels moisture and spills
-
Resists warping, swelling, and staining
-
Cleans up easily with just a mop or broom
-
Looks amazing doing it
And no, you don’t have to sacrifice style. Today’s waterproof floors come in stunning hardwood and tile looks.
Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP): The MVP of Waterproof Floors
LVP offers the authentic appearance of wood with full waterproof protection. It’s ideal for:
-
Kitchens and bathrooms
-
Basements
-
Laundry rooms
-
Entryways
We carry rigid core and SPC (stone polymer core) options for superior strength.
Waterproof Laminate: Yes, It’s a Thing
Traditional laminate feared water—but today’s waterproof varieties offer the best of both worlds:
-
Scratch resistance
-
Realistic wood visuals
-
Easy cleaning
-
Spill protection
Perfect for active households that want upscale style without worry.
Tile: The Original Waterproof Floor
Porcelain and ceramic tile remain unbeatable for bathrooms, mudrooms, and kitchens. Choose from stone-look tiles, patterned encaustics, or sleek modern designs. Add heated floors for a luxury feel in chilly seasons.
Mix and Match
We often recommend mixing waterproof floors with area rugs or stair runners to add warmth and texture. It’s the best of all worlds—resilient and stylish.
Akron Project: Whole-Home Waterproofing
A family in Akron needed floors for a busy home with three dogs and constant foot traffic. We installed LVP throughout the main level with coordinating tile in the mudroom. “It handles everything, and it looks incredible,” they shared.
Durability Never Looked So Good
With waterproof flooring, you don’t have to choose between function and fashion. You get both—and a floor that fits your life, not the other way around.
Stop by any of our Floorz showrooms in Copley, Strongsville, or Mayfield Heights to see our full waterproof collections. We proudly serve homes throughout Akron, Medina, Wadsworth, and Cleveland—helping you find floors that are ready for anything.
