Luxury Vinyl Plank done right, in 48197
Luxury vinyl plank — LVP for short — has changed what is possible in flooring. It looks like real hardwood, handles water without swelling or cupping, resists pet scratches, and installs over almost any subfloor. For kitchens, bathrooms, basements, mudrooms, and rentals, it's often the best balance of durability and price.
Not all LVP is the same. Wear-layer thickness, plank construction (SPC vs WPC), and click-lock quality vary widely between brands. We carry COREtec, Shaw, Mohawk, and other tier-one manufacturers — not the cheap big-box stuff that delaminates after two years.

Frequently asked
Common questions about luxury vinyl plank in 48197
Is LVP really 100% waterproof?
+
Tier-one LVP is fully waterproof for surface spills, pet accidents, and most plumbing leaks. The plank itself will not swell or warp from water. The subfloor underneath can still be damaged if water sits long enough, so prolonged flooding is still a concern, but routine spills and bathroom moisture are not.
How does LVP compare to laminate?
+
LVP is fully waterproof; most laminate is water-resistant but not waterproof. LVP is also softer underfoot than laminate. Laminate is typically less expensive but isn't recommended for kitchens, bathrooms, or basements. We can show you both at the estimate.
How does LVP compare to hardwood?
+
LVP wins on water resistance, scratch resistance, price, and ease of maintenance. Hardwood wins on resale value, refinishability, and that authentic real-wood feel. For families with kids or pets, basements, kitchens, or rentals, LVP is usually the smarter pick. For formal living rooms in a forever home, hardwood often wins.
How much does LVP cost installed?
+
LVP typically starts around $3.49 per square foot installed for entry-level, with tier-one brands like COREtec running $5 to $8. Pricing depends on the wear-layer thickness, plank width, and underlayment.
Can LVP be installed over existing flooring?
+
Often yes — LVP can float over most existing hard surfaces (vinyl, tile, hardwood) as long as the subfloor is flat and dry. Carpet has to come up first. We inspect at the measurement.
How long does LVP installation take?
+
Single room installs typically finish in a day. Whole-home installs run two to three days depending on square footage and prep. LVP is faster than hardwood because there is no acclimation requirement on most products.
How long does LVP last?
+
Tier-one LVP with a 20+ mil wear layer typically lasts 15 to 25 years residentially. The wear layer is the thin top coating that resists scratches and dents — thicker is better for high-traffic homes and pets.
