- Is this plank waterproof?
- Resilient vinyl planks are moisture-resistant and suit kitchens, baths and basements far better than hardwood. Standing water at seams and edges should still be wiped up promptly.
- Can it go over existing tile or concrete?
- Yes, vinyl plank is commonly laid over flat, sound tile, vinyl or concrete. The subfloor must be clean, dry and level, since thin planks telegraph bumps and dips.
- How does it compare with laminate?
- Vinyl handles moisture better than laminate, whose core can swell. Laminate usually feels harder and more wood-like underfoot and offers sharper printed detail.
- Does it need an underlayment?
- A floating install over concrete or a second floor usually calls for a moisture barrier or underlayment. Check the plank's own backing first, since some planks include a pad.
- Can I refinish or repair a scratched plank?
- No sanding or refinishing is possible on vinyl. A damaged plank is usually cut out and replaced, so keep a few spares from the same run.
