LVP in Coronado, CA.
LVP flooring for Coronado homes, done by an experienced San Diego County crew. LVP is the right answer for most San Diego homes built on slab. The good rigid-core SPC products are genuinely waterproof, dent-resistant, and look closer to real wood than they have any right to.

Is LVP really waterproof?
Rigid-core SPC and WPC LVP are waterproof at the plank itself, water cannot warp or swell the core. But the seams are not always watertight.

For everywhere else, LVP handles spills, dog accidents, and mopping with no issue.
