Explore laminate →Hardwood vs. laminate vs. LVP: here's the honest comparison.
Every category has trade-offs. Here's how they stack up across the things that actually matter.
| Hardwood | Laminate | LVP | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Durability | High: refinishable, lasts decades | Good: resists scratches, not refinishable | Very good: tough surface layer, stands up to daily use |
| Water resistance | Low: avoid wet areas | Low-moderate: some splash resistance, not waterproof | 100% waterproof, the right call for kitchens and basements |
| Cost | Higher: $9–$16/sq ft installed | Lower: $3.99–$5.99/sq ft installed | Mid-range: $3.99–$6.99/sq ft installed |
| Look and feel | Real wood grain, natural variation, warm underfoot | Very close to hardwood: photographic layer over HDF core | Realistic wood look, better than it used to be by a wide margin |
| Best rooms | Living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms | Bedrooms, living areas, rentals | Kitchens, bathrooms, basements, whole-home |
| Refinishable | Yes (solid hardwood) / Limited (engineered) | No | No |
| Utah dry climate | Acclimates well: engineered recommended for low humidity | Performs well: more stable than solid wood in dry air | No humidity concerns |
Utah's dry climate, especially in winter, affects wood-based flooring more than most homeowners expect. We'll talk through that at the consultation so you pick what'll actually hold up long-term.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of flooring is best for kitchens?
LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) is the best flooring for kitchens because it's 100% waterproof. Kitchens see regular water exposure from sinks, dishwashers, and spills. Hardwood and laminate can both be damaged by standing water. LVP looks like hardwood but handles everything a kitchen throws at it.
Which flooring is most durable for families with pets?
LVP with a 20 mil wear layer is the most pet-friendly flooring option. It resists scratches from claws, is 100% waterproof for accidents, and cleans up easily. Laminate (AC4+) is also a good option for dry rooms. Hardwood can be scratched by large dogs but can be refinished.
What's the most affordable flooring option?
Laminate is the most affordable option at $3.99–$5.99 per square foot installed. LVP runs $3.99–$6.99 installed. Hardwood is the premium option at $9–$16 installed. All prices include materials and professional installation by Plank & Go's licensed Utah contractor.
