Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about flooring? Our FAQs cover key topics like installation, material choices, and care tips to help you make informed decisions for your project.
What is the difference between vinyl and linoleum flooring?
Vinyl flooring is easier to clean. Linoleum requires specialty cleaners and more maintenance. Linoleum is made from natural ingredients that include linseed oil, tree resin and wood, while vinyl flooring is manufactured from vinyl, fiberglass and dye. Linoleum is prone to moisture damage yet is more eco-friendly. Vinyl is moisture resistant but is made from non-renewable resources.

How will I know how to clean and maintain my floor?
Floor cleaning varies according to the type of flooring installation.
