- Is this tile really waterproof?
- Yes. The SPC core and click-lock joints are rated 100% waterproof, so standing water and spills won't swell it. That makes it suitable for bathrooms, kitchens and basements.
- Do I need grout or underlayment?
- No grout and no sealing. The tiles click together as a floating floor. A flat, level subfloor is still required, and a thin underlayment helps with minor unevenness and sound.
- How much floor does one case cover?
- Each case holds 10 tiles and covers 19.62 square feet. Add about 10% extra for cuts and waste when ordering.
- How does the 12 mil wear layer compare?
- It is a mid-range wear layer suited to normal home traffic. Premium vinyl often uses 20 mil or more for heavy commercial use; 12 mil is fine for living rooms, bedrooms and kitchens.
- Can it go over existing flooring?
- Often yes, over a hard, flat surface such as old vinyl or tile, provided the subfloor is level and stable. Avoid soft or cushioned surfaces that let the click joints flex.
- Is it safe for indoor air quality?
- It carries FloorScore certification, which covers low VOC emissions for indoor flooring. That makes it a reasonable choice for bedrooms and nurseries.
