Discover the Game-Changer for Kitchens & Bathrooms. When it comes to kitchens and bathrooms, homeowners often face a dilemma: how to achieve the timeless elegance of real wood flooring in spaces prone to spills, humidity, and moisture. Traditionally, the answer to “Can engineered wood flooring be waterproof?” has been a firm “no“. But thanks to innovation in flooring technology, that answer has changed—and we’re excited to introduce you to the solution.
Why Traditional Engineered Wood Falls Short in Wet Areas
Engineered wood flooring has long been praised for its durability and natural beauty. However, even the highest-quality engineered wood isn’t inherently waterproof. Prolonged exposure to moisture—think steamy bathrooms, splashes in the kitchen, or pet water bowls—can cause warping, swelling, or delamination over time. This is why experts typically recommend alternatives like tile, vinyl, or laminate for these areas.
But what if you don’t want to compromise on the warmth and authenticity of real wood?
Introducing Quick-Step’s 100% Waterproof Real Wood Flooring.
Good news for design enthusiasts: Quick-Step, a leader in innovative flooring solutions, has revolutionised the game with their 100% waterproof engineered wood flooring. Yes, you read that right.
