Waterproof flooring—it almost sounds too good to be true, doesn’t it? Once upon a time, that may have been accurate, but the advancements in the flooring industry happen at a near-dizzying pace these days, and what was once too good to be true is now a reality.

Yes, there really is such a thing as waterproof flooring. Waterproof flooring is so popular with today’s homeowners that retailers are having a hard time keeping these new product lines on their shelves.

Who Makes It and How Does It Work?

Earlier this year, Mohawk Flooring introduced RevWood Plus, a revolutionary new product line geared toward customers who want the look and feel of traditional hardwood flooring but need a waterproof, scratch-resistant flooring solution that withstands the demands of busy households.

By using a combination of Mohawk’s patented Uniclic locking system, the GenuEdge pressed beveled edge, and Mohawk’s HydroSeal protective coating keep RevWood Plus’s planks from separating, stop particulate matter from getting ground between planks, and prevent moisture from penetrating the product.

Another great waterproof flooring system available to consumers is from COREtec, a division of Georgia-based USFloors. COREtec is a dimensionally stable, 100% waterproof flooring system that consumers can have installed over below-grade substrates. COREtec is a fantastic choice for:

But How Are the Color and Style Options?

Both RevWood Plus and COREtec are available in a variety of plank sizes, and both have a great selection of colors for homeowners to choose from. RevWood Plus currently has three collections available for homeowners to choose from:

  • Elderwood, which highlights distinctive knots and grain patterns
  • Antique Craft, which focuses on trending plank sizes, designs, and colors, such as longer planks in hues of weathered grey and soft brown
  • Sawmill Ridge, available in five colors to accentuate the unique embossed patterns on each plank

Whether you choose COREtec or RevWood Plus, you’re investing in some of the best flooring in today’s consumer marketplace.
