Yes, vinyl flooring is one of the most versatile flooring types available and can be used throughout the entire home. It’s especially popular in kitchens, bathrooms, and laundries because it’s fully waterproof and easy to clean. But it also works well in bedrooms, living areas, hallways and even on stairs. Its soft feel underfoot and sound-absorbing properties make it ideal for family homes and apartments where comfort and noise control matter. Just make sure to choose the right thickness and wear layer for higher-traffic areas.

Vinyl flooring typically ranges from 2mm to 8mm thick, but the ideal thickness depends on where you’re installing it. For low-traffic rooms like bedrooms, 3–4mm is usually enough. For busy spaces like living rooms, kitchens, or commercial areas, go for 5mm or more for better durability and sound insulation. Some of our thicker vinyl options also come with an attached underlay, which helps with comfort and acoustic performance. Check out our 5.1mm to 8mm Collection for the most durable options.

High-quality vinyl flooring can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years, depending on how it’s installed and maintained. All of our vinyl collections — from Allure to Vision — are built to meet Australian standards for wear and durability. For longevity, we recommend choosing a thicker product with a solid wear layer, especially if you’re installing in high-traffic or commercial areas. Regular sweeping and mopping with a non-abrasive cleaner will help keep your floors looking fresh for years.

Yes. Vinyl flooring is one of the most practical and pet-friendly surfaces on the market. It’s scratch-resistant, stain-resistant, and soft enough to cushion slips or falls — which is great for little ones running around. Plus, it’s easy to mop up pet accidents or food spills without worrying about damage. Some vinyl planks even include a slip-resistant finish for added peace of mind. If you’ve got an active household, vinyl is a safe and stress-free choice.

Vinyl flooring is generally easier to maintain than laminate. Since vinyl is fully waterproof, you can use a wet mop without worrying about water damage, which isn’t always the case with laminate. Vinyl also handles everyday wear better in humid climates, making it ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, and Queensland homes in particular. Laminate may offer a more rigid feel underfoot, but vinyl wins for flexibility, moisture resistance, and simplicity when it comes to cleaning and care.
