If you’ve asked friends what floor to get lately, you’ve heard the same answer: luxury vinyl plank. LVP looks like real hardwood, but it’s waterproof, it laughs at dog nails and dropped sippy cups, and it costs less than wood. It’s the floor Memphis families are choosing for kitchens, living rooms and hallways — and Nunez Flooring installs it.
Why homeowners pick LVP
- Waterproof core — spills, pet accidents and Memphis humidity don’t swell it like wood or laminate.
- Tough wear layer — built for kids, dogs and high-traffic rooms.
- Real wood looks — modern LVP is hard to tell from hardwood at a glance.
- Comfortable underfoot — warmer and quieter than tile, softer than wood.
- Whole-house friendly — the same floor can run from the kitchen through the living room into the bathrooms.

Installed right, or it doesn’t matter
Cheap LVP installed badly still fails: planks peak, seams open, floors click and move. The fix is prep — a flat subfloor, correct expansion gaps, and planks acclimated to your home. That’s the work we do before the first plank clicks in, and every installation is backed by our 6-month warranty.
Questions about vinyl plank
Q: Is vinyl plank really waterproof?
A: The planks themselves are waterproof, which is why LVP is the go-to for kitchens and bathrooms. Standing water left for days can still find seams, so wipe up big spills — but everyday life is no problem.
Q: Can LVP go over my existing floor?
A: Often, yes — if the existing floor is flat, firm and in good shape, LVP can be installed over it, which saves removal cost. We check during the measurement and tell you honestly if removal is the better call.
Q: How much does LVP installation cost in Memphis?
A: Material quality and room condition drive the price more than anything — a flat, open room is a different job than stairs and hallways with a damaged subfloor. We measure and quote in writing so you know your exact number before we start.
