Waterproof Flooring Is A Must


With children and pets, moisture-related accidents are a natural part of life. Choosing waterproof luxury vinyl flooring is the best way to prevent your floors from sustaining water damage.


In addition, since our luxury vinyl flooring is waterproof, odors won’t get trapped inside it. Preventing odors from becoming trapped helps to keep your home environment fresh and inviting.

Luxury Vinyl Flooring Is Safe For Pets 


COREtec luxury vinyl flooring is made with people, pets and the planet in mind. Our products are not only tested for durability, they are also tested for material health and safety, like slip testing, to help prevent Lassie from losing his footing as he chases his favorite ball.

Luxury Vinyl Flooring Is Quieter And Comfortable Underfoot


Once you finally get the baby to sleep, the last thing you want to worry about is a pup with the zoomies. With luxury vinyl plank or tile flooring, you can quiet tapping sounds heavy-footed pets make as they walk (or run!) around the house. Also, when compared to other flooring options, vinyl is naturally more comfortable underfoot.


At COREtec, a select group of styles features our patent-pending Soft-Step underlayment. These styles are warmer underfoot, offer more noise reduction and are made with recycled materials for a more sustainable flooring option.

COREtec’s Luxury Vinyl Flooring Is Durable And Scratch Resistant


Our LVP has the wood-like qualities we all love, minus concerns related to water damage, warping and the need for refinishing.


COREtec LVT flooring looks just like tile but requires no grout. No grout makes this flooring easy to install and a breeze to clean. Luxury vinyl tile is ideal for homes with pets because it’s durable, resisting cracks and chips.


When you have pets, the flooring you choose must be strong enough to handle cats’ and dogs’ paws, your pets’ toys and heavy bones. At COREtec, we have durable, scratch-resistant luxury vinyl flooring options in various styles. With our 30-year residential scratch warranty (available on select styles), you know your LVP and LVT floors will look immaculate for years!
