Buying flooring can feel overwhelming with so many materials, finishes, and durability options available. This guide is designed to help homeowners, landlords, and contractors in Nanaimo choose the right flooring products before visiting a flooring store.

Choosing the Right Flooring for Your Space

Before selecting flooring, consider how the space will be used:

• High-traffic living areas
• Rental properties or basement suites
• Kitchens and entryways with moisture exposure
• Owner-occupied homes focused on long-term value

Different flooring products are designed for different conditions. Choosing the correct material helps improve durability and long-term performance.

Vinyl Flooring – Waterproof & Durable

Vinyl flooring, including SPC and luxury vinyl plank (LVP), is one of the most popular flooring options in Nanaimo.

Vinyl flooring is commonly chosen because it offers:

• Waterproof or water-resistant performance
• High durability for rentals and busy households
• Comfortable feel underfoot
• Modern wood-look designs

Vinyl flooring works especially well for basements, kitchens, rentals, and high-traffic areas.

Laminate Flooring – AC4 & AC5 Options

Laminate flooring provides a realistic wood appearance at a more affordable price point.

When choosing laminate flooring, pay attention to the AC rating:

• AC4 laminate – suitable for busy residential use
• AC5 laminate – designed for higher traffic and rental properties

We also carry water-resistant and waterproof laminate options, making laminate suitable for more areas than ever before.

Laminate flooring is often selected for:

• Living rooms and bedrooms
• Condos and apartments
• Rental units requiring durability

Hardwood & Engineered Hardwood Flooring

For customers seeking natural materials and long-term value, engineered and hardwood flooring remains a popular choice.

Hardwood flooring offers:

• Authentic natural wood appearance
• Long lifespan with proper care
• Strong resale appeal

Engineered hardwood provides added stability compared to solid wood, making it suitable for more environments on Vancouver Island.
