Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring<\/a> from The Home Depot was the clear choice for us. Allow me to share some reasons why!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120441 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/homeimprovementblogs.com\/hg-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/2b9370bbbcf1416b1a4b5a54970cf29d.jpg\" alt=\"LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring\" width=\"750\" height=\"1216\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Because of the seemingly endless amount of choices out there, shopping for flooring can be a daunting task. With that said, you can count on The Home Depot to provide expert knowledge and insight that\u2019s only a click, phone call or short drive away. In addition to my research online, The Home Depot\u2019s large LifeProof flooring display really helped me make a great flooring decision for our family.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>We are a large family that includes four very energetic kids ranging from 11 to 4. When it comes to the needs of our family, health is the number one concern. When I discovered that LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring has no phthalates or formaldehyde, it went to the top of my list of choices.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Like most families with kids, we are also a family of spills! Drink spills happen every day, all day for us. Sometimes, these spills aren\u2019t reported to mom and dad. We find out about them when we discover the bottom of our socks are wet.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120443 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/homeimprovementblogs.com\/hg-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/b69cb96d8266aca2ae0fc285e8c19ffa.jpg\" alt=\"LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring\" width=\"750\" height=\"750\" \/><\/div>\n<div>Our new LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring, which is exclusive to The Home Depot, is 100% waterproof, which gives mom and dad assurance that we won\u2019t have to deal with warped floors every time a drink is knocked over. Clean-up is as simple as using a dust mop, vacuum, or a pH-neutral cleaner. It\u2019s also scratch-resistant, which is nice. But we fully expect to deal with marks and scratches from our VERY active kiddos.<\/div>\n<h3>Easy LifeProof Install<\/h3>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120442 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/homeimprovementblogs.com\/hg-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/317563ef70677252b6bed39b9d926030.jpg\" alt=\"LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Having installed both hardwood and laminate flooring in a different residence several years ago, a secondary consideration for me was the ease of installation. I can tell you that this flooring is very easy to install!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>These floating\/interlocking planks have the underlayment already attached to them and no acclimation is required. They can also be installed right over most existing interior surfaces; I installed mine over my existing vinyl sheet floors.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120436 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/homeimprovementblogs.com\/hg-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/9bc62acf52998ad1caeb3c840165db86.jpg\" alt=\"LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120447 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/homeimprovementblogs.com\/hg-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/3fc175e745ca2d46a1f12cff3ee37595.jpg\" alt=\"LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>For cuts, these vinyl planks can be scored with a razor knife and snapped. I\u2019m a table saw kinda guy, so I chose to use my saw with a <a href=\"https:\/\/homedepot.sjv.io\/vkPK3\">Diablo laminate-cutting saw blade<\/a>. Be sure to also pick up a <a href=\"https:\/\/homedepot.sjv.io\/GJKNn\">Roberts Pro Flooring Installation Kit<\/a> which makes installing this flooring even easier.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120445 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/homeimprovementblogs.com\/hg-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/066459be0d122daac02d538697df6e0a.jpg\" alt=\"LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The Zamma Vinyl Multi-Purpose Reducer Molding is another great item to pick up to give a finished look to your new floors next to your existing carpets.<\/div>\n<h3>The Final Look<\/h3>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120439 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/homeimprovementblogs.com\/hg-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/ad6128a863449e5f2077f0797ecd57fb.jpg\" alt=\"LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120440 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/homeimprovementblogs.com\/hg-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/fa41a31f7267492bb75752b53033a2f1.jpg\" alt=\"LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring\" width=\"750\" height=\"1125\" \/><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Our rooms feel fresh, new, and lighter thanks to the great color and look that these vinyl planks provide. We chose the Sterling Oak color. But all the LifeProof color choices look great and match the latest trends in flooring.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>We are absolutely thrilled about our new LifeProof Luxury Vinyl Plank Floors! Our kids have played on these floors non-stop since I installed them. This was such a great choice for our family that should last for years to come.<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\"
