Luxury Vinyl Plank
Vinyl plank has a realistic wood look and is softer and warmer underfoot than tile. It installs faster and is a favorite for bedrooms, living rooms and home offices.
- Wood look at a lower cost than hardwood
- Water-resistant and easy to clean
- Quieter and more comfortable underfoot
- Can scratch or dent under heavy furniture
Porcelain and Ceramic Tile
Tile is the classic Florida floor. It stays cool, handles water completely and can last for decades. It takes more work to install, especially when the old floor has to be removed.
- Very durable and long-lasting
- Handles water, sand and spills
- Cool underfoot in the Florida heat
- Harder surface, and grout needs occasional cleaning
