My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Hi Bette. No, this is not waterproof but it is made to be moisture resistant. This is a laminate which is a wood product and this will absorb moisture if left unattended which will cause swelling. If you are looking for a waterproof option I would suggest a Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) which are vinyl planks that click together like a laminate. Have a great day! Amy - BestLaminate Customer Service
