Built for daily life
We focus on flatness, underlay selection, and clean transitions—so your vinyl looks premium, feels solid underfoot, and performs long-term.
Waterproof Vinyl Plank Floors That Stay Quiet, Flat & Beautiful
If your goal is a modern wood-look floor with low maintenance and strong moisture resistance, we install LVP / SPC vinyl plank flooring for condos, rentals, family homes, and commercial spaces across Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, Surrey, Coquitlam, Langley and the North Shore. The difference is in the foundation: correct subfloor prep, the right acoustic underlay, and clean transitions so your floor feels solid and performs long-term.
Why Clients Pick Vinyl Plank — And Why Our Installs Feel “Premium”
Vinyl plank can look incredible, but only when flatness, underlay, layout and finishing details are handled properly. We install to manufacturer tolerances to reduce clicking, gaps, edge peaking and movement over time.

Why Vinyl Plank Works So Well in Metro Vancouver
Waterproof performance
SPC/WPC cores handle spills, wet boots, and Vancouver’s damp seasons with ease. It’s one of the best “real life” floors for kitchens, entries, rentals and busy homes.
Strata-friendly comfort
With the right acoustic underlay and transitions, vinyl plank is quieter than many hard surfaces and can be aligned to condo sound requirements (STC/IIC varies by building).
Our Vinyl Plank Installation Process
Prep & planning
- Measure + layout — plank direction, sightlines, clean cut balance.
- Subfloor check — flatness, seams, deflection, moisture red flags.
- Underlay selection — acoustic + strata needs where applicable.
- Protection plan — condo common areas, dust control, tidy workflow.
Install & finishing
- Click-lock or glue-down — installed to manufacturer specs.
- Transitions + trims — doorways, reducers, stair nosings as required.
- Final walkthrough — care plan, punch list, clean handover.
- Warranty support — documentation and workmanship backing.
Click-Lock vs Glue-Down • SPC vs WPC
Click-lock (floating)
Great for condos and homes. Faster installs and easier future board replacement. Works well with acoustic underlay.
Glue-down (commercial)
Best for larger open areas, rolling loads, and commercial sites. Increased stability when installed over properly prepared substrates.

Vinyl Plank Installation — FAQs
Is vinyl plank flooring waterproof?
Yes. Most SPC/WPC luxury vinyl plank is waterproof and works well for kitchens, entries, rentals and basements (site conditions matter).
How long does installation take?
Many homes are completed in 1–3 days depending on size, prep, and stairs. Larger or glue-down commercial projects can take longer.
Do you remove old flooring and fix the subfloor?
Yes. We can remove/dispose of existing floors, then patch/level to meet manufacturer flatness tolerances so the new floor locks and sits properly.
Click-lock or glue-down — which is better?
Click-lock is common for condos and homes. Glue-down is often best for commercial spaces and large open areas with rolling loads.
How do strata sound rules affect vinyl installs?
Underlay selection, transitions, and assembly details matter. We can provide underlay options and product data to help align with your building’s requirements.
How do I clean vinyl plank floors?
Sweep/vacuum regularly and damp mop with an approved cleaner. Avoid steam mops and abrasive pads to protect the wear layer.
