How long does this luxury vinyl flooring last?

COREtec floors feature dense SPC or WPC cores and durable wear layers that resist dents and fading. With routine care, they typically last over 20 years in homes and 10 to 15 years in light-commercial spaces.

How much does installation cost?

Installation prices vary by region and installer. Floating click-lock installs average $2–$3 per sq ft for labor only. Total project cost depends on floor prep and trim selection.

Can I install the flooring myself?

Yes. COREtec vinyl plank flooring uses a simple click-lock system—no glue or nails required. Most DIY installers finish a standard room in one day with basic cutting tools.

Is COREtec waterproof and pet friendly?

Yes. Each plank includes a waterproof rigid core and a protective top layer that blocks moisture and resists scratches. The attached cork backing softens noise from pets and adds warmth underfoot.

What makes this flooring 100 percent waterproof?

The COREtec product uses a rigid SPC or WPC core sealed with a multilayer wear surface that prevents moisture from penetrating seams. It performs well in kitchens, baths, basements, and laundry areas.

What is the difference between COREtec Pro and Originals?

COREtec Pro uses an SPC core for maximum strength and dent resistance—ideal for heavy traffic. COREtec Originals has a WPC core that feels warmer and quieter, preferred for bedrooms and living spaces.

Does COREtec need underlayment?

Most collections have a built-in cork pad for sound control and comfort. Add separate underlayment only when required by building-code sound ratings or minor subfloor leveling.

How do I clean these vinyl floors?

Sweep or vacuum debris often, then damp-mop with a pH-neutral vinyl cleaner. Skip steam mops, waxes, and abrasive pads to maintain the finish and warranty coverage.

Can COREtec be installed in basements or bathrooms?

Yes. This flooring's waterproof structure allows safe installation in below-grade or moisture-prone areas. Ensure the subfloor is flat, clean, and dry before starting.

What warranty does COREtec include?

Most residential lines feature a limited lifetime structural warranty and a 20-to-30-year finish warranty. Commercial products generally carry a 10-year limited warranty.

How many free samples can I order?

You can order up to three free samples, including shipping. If you order four or five total, the extra samples remain free, but standard shipping fees apply.

How quickly will my COREtec order ship?

Most COREtec products leave the warehouse within 5-7 business days and reach most U.S. ZIP codes in 7–10 days. Tracking details are emailed once the order ships.

How long does the flooring take to acclimate before installation?

Let unopened cartons rest in the installation area for at least 48 hours to match room temperature and humidity. This ensures tight joints and a stable fit after install.
