Unifloor Aquafix Grand Cru Vinyl Plank Flooring

If a room sees water, pets, or heavy traffic, vinyl tends to be the practical answer, as long as you read past the photo to the build.

In simple terms: Unifloor Aquafix Grand Cru is a wood-look vinyl plank that handles water, pets, and busy rooms without complaint. We carry it and install it in-house.

Decision line: reach for Aquafix Grand Cru where stability and waterproofing lead the list: basements, kitchens, condos, and over concrete.

The detail behind that: rigid-core stands for stone polymer composite, and that core is the point: it is hard, rigid, and stable, so the plank stays flat over uneven subfloors and ignores the temperature swings that move cheaper vinyl. It clicks together as a floating floor. The 20 mil wear layer puts it in heavy-residential, light-commercial territory, which is where vinyl earns its keep in a family home. On vinyl, that mil number is the best single predictor of how long the floor keeps looking new, more than thickness or price. It is 100% waterproof top to bottom, not merely water-resistant, so kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, and entries are all fair game. 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 71 inches long, a wide-and-long format that reads like real wood. A low-sheen matte finish keeps glare and footprints down. Painted micro-bevelled edges frame each plank and hide the seams. It is FloorScore certified for indoor air quality. It is backed by a Lifetime residential and 15-year commercial warranty. Colours in the range include Latour, Ausone, Cheval, Petrus, and Pichon.

Our own crew installs Unifloor Aquafix Grand Cru 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.

Vinyl reads differently across a full floor than in a small sample, so it is worth seeing Aquafix Grand Cru in person at either store. Contact us to check current stock, or browse the full vinyl plank range. For more on what waterproof really means, see our is flooring waterproof guide.
