Vinyl
Choosing vinyl flooring means you get the best flooring for the best price. Vinyl flooring is an excellent option for high-traffic areas due to its durability and easy maintenance. Vinyl flooring is 100% moisture resistant and built to last in your home for years to come. If you are looking for a great flooring option at a great price, vinyl flooring is an excellent choice.

Tile
With its aesthetic design and rigid structure, tile flooring is a robust and durable flooring option. Tile, when properly installed, can withstand water and low impact damage. The risk you take with tile resides in the installation process. When improperly installed, there can be air gaps that fill with water and shift or crack your tile. That’s why it’s important to partner with an experienced flooring professional who can properly install your tile flooring and improve its durability.

Laminate
Laminates feature a tough uppermost layer that is scratch-resistant and can withstand everything from pet claws to office equipment. The one weakness of laminate flooring is if your dishwasher overflows or your toilet starts leaking. Laminate flooring can withstand scratches and dents, but water can damage your flooring.

Solid hardwood
One of the most outstanding qualities of hardwood is its resilience. Hardwood can always be brought back to its original condition. While hardwood does scratch, it is less likely to crack. If you scratch your hardwood floor, sanding the surface will bring back the original beauty of your hardwood.

Choosing the right floor for your home is an investment that requires research and flexibility, and that’s why RFraser is here to help you make the right selection for your home.
