Next Floor Lighthouse Point 562 Vinyl Plank Flooring

Most vinyl floors look fine in the box; what separates them is the wear layer, the thing that decides whether the floor still looks new in five years.

In simple terms: Next Floor Lighthouse Point 562 is luxury vinyl plank, a wood-look floor that is 100% waterproof and built to take real-life traffic. It is rigid-core, Squarefoot Flooring carries it and our own crew installs it.

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. Water is a non-issue: it is 100% waterproof through the whole plank, which is what makes it the go-to for bathrooms, kitchens, and below-grade rooms. Planks run up to 7 inches wide and 60 inches long, a wide-and-long format that reads like real wood. Micro-bevelled edges define each plank for a more authentic look. It is FloorScore certified for indoor air quality. It is backed by a Lifetime residential and 30-year commercial warranty. Colours in the range include Oyster Oak, Faded Hickory, Taupestone Oak, Cocoa Hickory, and Winter Hickory.

Decision line: Lighthouse Point 562 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 Next Floor Lighthouse Point 562 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 Lighthouse Point 562 in person at either store. Contact us to check current stock, or browse the full vinyl plank range. Our is flooring waterproof guide explains what waterproof actually covers.
