Most vinyl plank looks the same in a photo. What separates one floor from the next is the wear layer and the way the plank installs, and that is where XL Flooring is easy to recommend. The Vancouver company has made luxury vinyl since 2001, and its planks carry a 20 mil wear layer, the thickness most brands keep for their commercial floors.
In simple terms: the XL Flooring range comes down to how the floor goes in. Most of the line is 5mm click plank that floats over your subfloor with no glue, there is a 3mm glue-down plank for the busiest rooms, and there is a vinyl tile if you want a stone or ceramic look. All of it is waterproof luxury vinyl, so it will not swell the way laminate does when water sits on it.
The 5mm click planks
This is the heart of the line, floating planks that lock together over almost any flat subfloor. Flexiplank is the one with an acoustic backing already attached, so it quiets the room underfoot, while Easyplank, EZfit, and Drop and Done focus on a fast, simple click install. Legacy and Designer Select lean into the visuals, and XXL Large uses an oversized plank that suits open rooms where fewer seams look cleaner. If you want vinyl over an existing hard floor, or a quicker install in a condo or finished basement, start here.
The 3mm glue-down plank
Foundation is the dryback side of the line. It bonds flat to the subfloor with adhesive, which is what you want in wide open spaces and high-traffic entries where a floating floor can shift over time. It carries the same 20 mil wear layer as the click planks, so you are not trading durability for that glue-down stability.
The vinyl tile option
Easytile brings the same waterproof XL Flooring build in a tile format, a practical choice for bathrooms, entries, and laundry rooms where you want the look of stone or ceramic without a cold, hard install.
Which XL Flooring floor suits your room
If you want the simplest install and a softer, quieter step, choose one of the 5mm click planks. If the floor faces carts, castor chairs, or steady traffic all day, the glue-down Foundation is the safer call. For a wet room or a tiled look, Easytile is the one. Our team can walk you through all of them in person and match the right one to your subfloor and your room.
