- Is SolidTech Plus really waterproof?
- Yes. Mohawk rates the SolidTech Plus core as waterproof, which is why it is listed for kitchens and bathrooms. Standing water should still be wiped up rather than left for days.
- Can I install it over existing tile?
- Usually yes, if the tile is flat, sound and clean. Floating planks go over most hard, level surfaces, but high grout lines may need leveling first.
- Do I need underlayment with it?
- Check whether the plank has an attached pad. If it does not, a thin moisture-barrier underlayment is recommended, especially over concrete.
- How does it compare with glue-down vinyl plank?
- Floating SolidTech Plus installs faster and is easier to remove. Glue-down feels more solid underfoot and handles heavy rolling loads better.
- What is in the box?
- Planks only, sold by the case with a stated square-foot coverage. Trim, transitions and underlayment are separate purchases.
- When is the best time to buy?
- Flooring promos cluster around spring remodeling season and Black Friday. With one store listing it at $175.37 as of November 4, 2026, watch for a second seller to compare against.
- Where is the SolidTech Plus cheapest?
- At OnFlooring, for $175.37, as of our latest check.
