Wood-look flooring alternatives

Wood-look flooring alternatives


When you shop for flooring, you probably will look longingly at wood. For whatever reason, though, genuine wood won't work.

Well, how about a waterproof wood look? They're trending these days, and that's expected to last at least 15 years. So consider a wood look for your new floors.

About luxury vinyl plank


The vinyl is cut into strips with this product and mounted on boards to mimic hardwood planks. Images are taken with high-definition photography, so they are true to life.

You'll see knots, grains, swirls, etc. Embossing and micro beveling add depth, dimension, and textured looks. There are hundreds of photos from which to choose, so you'll find something for any decor, from traditional to coastal.

Also called LVP, this is durable, waterproof, and low maintenance. Waterproof flooring, an engineered version of luxury vinyl plank (or tile), offers the highest level of moisture protection. Our flooring company carries designs by Congoleum, Happy Feet International, Fusion, and more.

Laminate flooring


Long considered an affordable, attractive, durable, and highly water-resistant alternative to genuine wood. It has evolved with better graphics, embossing, and textured looks.

Wood look tile


I recently walked into someone's bathroom and saw the most beautiful "wood" floors. I could even feel the grain under my bare feet.

The homeowner told me it was a wood look tile. InkJet Technology has enabled manufacturers to create intricate patterns with raised grains, color variations, textures, and more, and you can see them in our flooring store.
