Is a 22 mil wear layer good for a home?

Yes. 22 mil is a commercial-grade wear layer, well above the 6 to 12 mil typical of residential vinyl, so it handles heavy traffic, pets and scratches better than most home flooring.

Is this flooring really waterproof?

The SPC core is waterproof, so surface water and spills will not swell or damage the planks. Standing water at seams should still be wiped up, and the subfloor should be dry before install.

Can I install it over existing tile or concrete?

Rigid core planks with a click-lock edge can float over most flat, sound subfloors, including concrete and well-bonded tile. The surface must be level and clean, and any high spots need to be ground down.

Does it work with pets?

Yes. The scratch-resistant wear layer and waterproof core resist claws, accidents and messes, and the anti-slip surface gives pets traction. Very heavy or anxious dogs can still mark softer vinyl, but SPC holds up well.

How does it compare with laminate?

SPC is waterproof and more dimensionally stable than laminate, which swells if water gets into its core. Laminate feels warmer and softer underfoot, so choose SPC for wet rooms and laminate for living areas where comfort matters more.

What is included with the flooring?

The planks come with an attached silent underlayment, so you do not need a separate pad. You will still need spacers, a tapping block and a pull bar for the click-lock install.
