LVP flooring for Spring Valley 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. A bath overflow that sits for two days will eventually find its way under the floor. For wet areas, sheet vinyl or tile is still the better pick. For everywhere else, LVP handles spills, dog accidents, and mopping with no issue.
