Beaulieu Oceania Vinyl Tile Flooring

Good vinyl is not about the picture on the plank, it is about the wear layer on top and the core underneath.

In simple terms: Beaulieu Oceania gives you the stone and marble look in a waterproof, hard-wearing vinyl floor. Squarefoot Flooring stocks it and installs it with our own team.

Here is what matters on this one. The core here is rigid-core, a stone-and-polymer composite that is denser and more rigid than standard vinyl. That rigidity is what lets it sit flat over an imperfect subfloor and hold its shape year-round, and it installs as a floating click floor. It has a 12 mil wear layer, enough for normal household traffic in bedrooms, living rooms, and quieter spaces. Because it is 100% waterproof rather than just water-resistant, you can put it in the rooms that rule out wood and laminate, full baths, laundry rooms, kitchens, and basements. It carries an IIC rating around 71 and an STC around 71 plus an attached acoustic pad, so it clears the sound-transfer rules most GTA condo boards set, a common sticking point in high-rises. Tiles come in a 7 by 48 inch format. An embossed surface adds real texture underfoot rather than a flat printed face. Micro-bevelled edges define each plank for a more authentic look. On the health side, it is FloorScore certified for indoor air quality and phthalate-free. It is backed by a Lifetime residential and 5-year commercial warranty. Colours in the range include Piranha, Barracuda, Remora, Angelfish, and Cobia.

Decision line: Oceania is the choice when you want a thin, rock-solid, fully waterproof floor that hides an imperfect subfloor and goes just about anywhere.

Our own crew installs Beaulieu Oceania across the Toronto and Mississauga area, Barrie, and Simcoe County, never subcontracted. A floating vinyl floor still needs a clean, flat base, so we level and prep first, then finish the trim and transitions. See our vinyl installation page.

It is worth seeing Oceania in person before deciding. Visit either store, contact us to confirm stock, and see more in the vinyl flooring range.
