When you live in Daytona, waterproof flooring is a way of life

 
The ancient mariner in Coleridge’s famous poem was heard to say, “Water, water, everywhere…” Indeed, that is as good a description as any when it comes to central Florida and frankly, that is one of the things we love about living in South Daytona. It also means that we need to take seriously how our flooring handles water.
 

Waterproof and water-resistant flooring options

 
For the record, there is a difference. That does not mean water-resistant is a bad thing, yet they might not serve all of your needs if you are looking for waterproof floors. Water-resistance means that the materials have been treated and are rated to handle a certain amount of water on their surface without difficulties or problems. Waterproof means that you can submerge the material in water and it will not affect the material in the least. And, while you may not be anticipating a flood or looking for a floor for the bottom of your swimming pool, in Florida it is nice to have the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your floor is waterproof.
 
 
 
 
 

An added benefit from waterproof floors

 
When people think of flooring, they often think only in terms of that which is installed inside of their homes. An added benefit of waterproof floors in Florida is that you can also install them outside. This permits a floor to be laid around the swimming pool or on a deck, which is a wonderful way of tying together the outside areas of your home with the inside.
 

Choosing vinyl and tile flooring

 
The two types of flooring that are fully waterproof are vinyl and tile flooring, whether ceramic, porcelain, or stone. Water does not affect their performance or function, it will not cause the products to break down or fade. They are worry-free when it comes to the presence of water. It should also be noted that some lines of laminate flooring are waterproof, though most are water-resistant.
