COREtec Floors Pro VV968 Vinyl Plank Flooring

The vinyl aisle is full of look-alikes at very different prices, and the difference usually comes down to two specs most shoppers never check.

In simple terms: COREtec Floors Pro VV968 is a wood-look vinyl plank that handles water, pets, and busy rooms without complaint. We carry it and install it in-house.

The build and the spec: The core here is SPC, 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 20 mil wear layer, the sweet spot for busy homes and light commercial rooms, well above the builder-grade 6 to 12 mil you find in big-box vinyl. With vinyl, the mil rating tells you more about longevity than the overall thickness does. 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. An attached acoustic underlayment cuts down sound transfer and adds a little underfoot comfort, and it saves a separate pad on install. Planks run up to 9 inches wide and 72 inches long, a wide-and-long format that reads like real wood. Painted micro-bevelled edges frame each plank and hide the seams. On the health side, it is GREENGUARD certified. It is backed by an USF Lifetime Resilient (defects, wear, waterproof, petproof residential and USF 15-year Heavy commercial warranty. Colours in the range include Bromham Walnut, Cardington Walnut, Kempston Walnut, Rushden Walnut, and Bedford Oak.

We install COREtec Floors Pro VV968 with our own team, not subcontractors, across the GTA, Barrie, and Simcoe County. It floats over most existing hard floors once the base is flat and dry. Read how we work on the vinyl installation page, or see our projects.

Decision line: reach for Pro VV968 where stability and waterproofing lead the list: basements, kitchens, condos, and over concrete.

It is worth seeing Pro VV968 in person before deciding. Visit either showroom, contact us to confirm stock, and see more in the vinyl flooring range. You can browse the complete COREtec Floors lineup on our COREtec Floors page.
