- The three specs that matter
What We Check: Wear Layer, Core and Thickness
When comparing vinyl floor contractors, ask which plank is being quoted, how the subfloor will be prepared, and what the written warranty covers. These three product specifications help you compare options. Our guide to choosing vinyl flooring contractors explains more checks before you hire.
Wear Layer, Measured in Mils
The wear layer is the clear protective surface measured in mils. Our displayed stocked planks have a 12 mil wear layer. At your measurement, discuss foot traffic, pets and the specific product warranty with our vinyl flooring installers so the selected floor suits the room.
- For busy kitchens or homes with pets, confirm the wear layer, scratch resistance and warranty of the exact plank before you order.
Core Type, SPC or WPC
SPC has a dense rigid core; WPC has a foamed core that can feel softer underfoot. Both need a flat, properly prepared subfloor. Compare the selected product’s dent resistance, attached pad, installation requirements and warranty rather than choosing by core name alone.
- Neither absorbs water. Ask any contractor which core they are quoting.
Overall Thickness in Millimeters
Overall thickness affects floor height, door clearance and transitions. It does not replace subfloor preparation: every plank needs a flat, sound base within the manufacturer’s tolerances. Compare the wear layer, core and product warranty alongside thickness.
- One honest limit: this flooring cannot be refinished. When the wear layer wears through, the floor is replaced rather than sanded.

Our LVP Installation Process in Three Steps
Vinyl Flooring Installers, Not Salespeople
The person who measures your home is one of our professional flooring installers, from the crew that lays your floor. That visit is where we check subfloor flatness, concrete moisture, door clearance and transitions, and confirm the scope of your fixed quote. Get your price online, book an express measurement within 48 hours, then agree on an installation date. Most scheduled installations take 1 to 2 days.

Express Measurement Within 48 Hours
One of our vinyl flooring installers, not a commissioned sales rep, confirms measurements at your home, tests the subfloor and brings full size samples.
- Within 48 hrs
Installed in 1 to 2 Days
A two-person crew of vinyl flooring installers arrives with the material on the truck, protects your furniture, pulls the old floor, installs the luxury vinyl plank and reinstalls the baseboards. A typical 600 sq ft main level is walkable that evening.

- Straight talk
Is LVP Waterproof? What We Seal and Why
Waterproof LVP resists water damage to the plank itself. The installed floor is not a waterproofing system: water can travel through seams and perimeter gaps to the subfloor. FIXO checks concrete moisture and seals wet-room perimeters according to the selected product’s instructions. Active leaks or moisture problems need to be resolved before installation.
- 100% waterproof
What Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring Actually Is
Luxury vinyl plank flooring, usually shortened to LVP, is a rigid core vinyl board made in long planks that imitate wood. Under the printed wood look film sits a dense waterproof core, and on top sits a clear wear layer that absorbs the abuse. Most planks we install have a pad attached underneath, which makes it quieter and warmer underfoot than tile. If you want real wood on the surface, engineered hardwood is the other floor we install for that look.
- A practical wood-look option for suitable basements, kitchens and bathrooms. Choose a product approved for the room and clean spills promptly.
- LVP or LVT? LVP typically gives a wood-plank look; LVT often gives a stone or tile look. Compare the exact product’s construction, wear layer and warranty as well as appearance.
- Perimeter sealed in bathrooms and laundry rooms, because water can still travel through seams and reach the subfloor
- Vapor barrier underlayment as standard below grade — if your slab reads high on our moisture meter at the measurement, we tell you before you sign
Your price, in 60 secondsFixed · all-in
Every LVP installation needs a flat, sound subfloor. We check high and low spots, test concrete moisture and plan expansion gaps, following the selected product’s preparation and installation requirements. A common flatness tolerance is 3/16 inch over 10 feet, but the manufacturer’s specification governs each job. Comparing options? See our laminate flooring installation service and completed floors in the project gallery.

The LVP Styles We Install
These are our actual planks, photographed from the sample boards rather than manufacturer renders. Pick one inside the instant quote and one of our vinyl flooring installers brings full-size samples to your home. Light tones make a room read larger and hide dust. Mid tones are the most forgiving with pets and are what we install most often. Terrain Oak looks best in rooms with plenty of natural light.
Choose Your LVP Style With an Installer
Our vinyl flooring installers bring full-size samples so you can compare the ten vinyl wood plank flooring styles in your own light. Warm Oak, Sand Oak, Landmark Oak and Terrain Oak are our four oak vinyl plank flooring looks; Natural Maple and Light Ash are lighter options. Classic Walnut, Raven Walnut, Charcoal Teak and Canela Cherry complete the selection.
Check the plank’s wear layer and warranty with your installer before choosing. For help comparing wood looks, read our vinyl wood flooring guide.

Basements, wet rooms and whole floors
Our luxury vinyl plank flooring contractors install LVP in basements, kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and connected living spaces across Northern Virginia, Maryland and DC. Room suitability depends on the selected plank, subfloor condition and manufacturer’s installation requirements.
LVP for Bathroom Floors
Rigid-core LVP can suit a bathroom when the product is approved for that use, the subfloor is sound and perimeter details follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Existing leaks and damaged subflooring must be addressed first. Planning a full bathroom floor installation? Explore our bathroom renovation services or tile flooring installation.
- Basements and below-grade rooms — we test concrete moisture first and follow the plank manufacturer’s moisture-protection requirements. Active leaks or excessive moisture must be addressed before installation.
- Kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and mudrooms — dishwasher leaks, dropped pans and wet boots in February
- Easier on your back than ceramic tile through a long day of cooking
- Whole home and open floor plans — one continuous floor through the kitchen, hall and great room reads far larger than a space broken up by transition strips at every doorway

LVP Installation FAQs
Straight answers from our luxury vinyl plank flooring contractors about hiring, pricing, product choice and installation. Call (757) 589-6859 to discuss your floor.
Can luxury vinyl plank be installed over my existing floor?
Over ceramic tile, sheet vinyl, hardwood and concrete that is flat within roughly 3/16 inch over 10 feet, yes, and skipping removal saves you money. Over carpet, cushioned vinyl or an existing floating floor, no.
Is LVP a good choice for a damp basement?
LVP can suit a basement when the slab is dry enough for the selected product and moisture protection follows the manufacturer’s instructions. Our vinyl flooring installers test concrete moisture at the measurement visit. Active leaks, standing water or moisture readings above the product’s limits must be addressed before installation; a vapor barrier is not a repair for those problems.
What wear layer should I ask for?
The displayed stocked planks have a 12 mil wear layer. Choose a product based on room traffic, pets, maintenance needs and the manufacturer’s warranty. Ask your installer to confirm the exact wear layer and suitability before you order; a thicker overall plank alone does not guarantee greater durability.
Will vinyl plank flooring look like fake wood?
LVP is designed to give a wood look, with printed grain and surface texture. The result depends on the chosen style, lighting and layout. FIXO brings full-size samples so you can judge them at home. See all ten styles →
Can you install vinyl plank on stairs?
Yes. Our vinyl flooring installers cover stairs too. Stairs are priced per step with matching stair nosings, risers wrapped and treads cut to the skirt. Carpeted steps become finished wood look stairs in a day.
How long does LVP flooring installation take?
Most scheduled LVP installations take 1 to 2 days. Floor area, removal, subfloor repairs, stairs and product requirements can extend the work. Express measurement is available within 48 hours; the installation start date is agreed separately after the scope and material are confirmed.
How do I choose luxury vinyl plank flooring contractors?
Compare the exact plank specification, subfloor preparation, moisture-testing approach, written scope and warranty. Ask for proof of insurance and any license required for your location, such as a Virginia DPOR license. Look at completed projects and reviews, and confirm who will measure and install the floor. Our contractor selection guide explains the checks.
Can you install LVP in a bathroom?
Yes, when the selected plank is approved for bathroom use and the subfloor is sound. We check for existing water damage and follow the product’s wet-room and perimeter-sealing requirements. Repair leaks first; LVP does not replace waterproofing inside a shower or wet room.
How much does vinyl flooring installation cost?
Most DMV homeowners pay $4 to $9 per square foot for installed luxury vinyl plank, including material, labor, removal and trim. The exact LVP installation price depends on floor area, plank choice, removal, subfloor preparation, trim and stairs. Use FIXO’s estimator for your project price and confirm the scope at measurement. Our installation cost guide explains planning ranges; your written quote sets the price for your job.
Is luxury vinyl plank flooring waterproof?
Waterproof LVP resists water damage to the plank itself. The installed floor is not a watertight system: water can reach the subfloor through seams and perimeter gaps. Follow the selected product’s wet-room instructions, clean up spills promptly, and address leaks or excessive concrete moisture before installation.
