Greater Indianapolis's most-requested floor

Ask ten homeowners what they're installing this year and most will say LVP. It's waterproof, shrugs off scratches, looks like real hardwood from three feet away, and typically runs about half the installed cost of solid wood. Best Flooring keeps a deep in-stock selection of rigid-core SPC and WPC plank for Greater Indianapolis homes, and we'd rather walk you through the differences than just point you at the cheapest box.

Set on the real thing instead? We also install [solid](/real-solid-hardwood-flooring) and [engineered hardwood](/engineered-hardwood) - during your free estimate we'll tell you honestly which one makes more sense for your room and budget, no pressure either way.

Reading an LVP spec sheet without the headache

Wear layer, core type, and total thickness - those three numbers tell you almost everything. We'll translate the spec sheet into plain English during your consultation.

  • 12-20 mil wear layer - lighter residential use, rentals and guest rooms
  • 22 mil wear layer - our default recommendation for a busy household
  • 28-30 mil wear layer - heavy residential and light commercial traffic
  • SPC core - rigid and stable, won't telegraph small subfloor imperfections
  • WPC core - a bit softer and warmer underfoot
  • 5mm-8mm total thickness - thicker generally means quieter footsteps

Click-lock or glue-down - which one for your house

Click-lock LVP floats over the subfloor and is the faster, easier-to-repair option for most homes. Glue-down feels more solid and stays quieter in large open rooms or busy [commercial](/commercial-flooring) spaces. We'll recommend the method that fits your subfloor rather than defaulting to whichever is faster for us.

Installation that starts with the subfloor, not the plank

Most LVP problems trace back to a subfloor nobody leveled first. We fill low spots, address squeaks, and follow the manufacturer's underlayment spec before a single plank goes down. Heading to the stairs too? See how we handle [vinyl stairs](/vinyl-flooring-stairs) with a custom-milled nosing when the factory doesn't offer a match - and we haul away the old flooring so you're not stuck with a dumpster in the driveway.

Luxury Vinyl Plank - frequently asked questions

It's one of the best options for it. Plenty of local basements - especially the older ones closer to downtown - see occasional dampness, and LVP handles a concrete subfloor without the acclimation headaches wood needs, while feeling far warmer underfoot than a bare concrete slab.

The wear layer resists scratching well, but nothing's bulletproof - dog claws and furniture dragged across the floor can mark up a thinner product. For big dogs or heavy foot traffic, we point people toward a 20+ mil wear layer.

A quality 22-mil-plus product typically runs 20-25 years in a home, longer in lighter-traffic rooms. Commercial-rated LVP can stretch past 25.

The brands we carry are FloorScore certified and CARB Phase II compliant, so it's a safe pick for nurseries and anyone in the house with sensitivities.
