Can moisture get under vinyl plank flooring?
While waterproof vinyl flooring is resistant to water, if water manages to seep underneath, it can lead to various issues. It may cause the floor to warp, swell, or create mold and mildew problems. Promptly addressing water infiltration is crucial to prevent long-term damage.
Properly installed LVP is waterproof, except at the edges. All edges should be caulked to seal the joint. They typically also apply a leveling compound and/or a sealer over concrete prior to installation.
