Laurel Larkin 8.98 x 48.03

Laurel Larkin is a blonde luxury vinyl plank offered in a 8.98 by 48.03 format. Its wear layer takes daily traffic while the waterproof core handles kitchens, baths, and basements without worry. It floats or glues down over most hard subfloors, covering whole homes, kitchens, and basements without transition anxiety.

Blonde wood tones brighten floors the way pale oak does, keeping rooms light while adding grain and warmth. It suits Scandinavian schemes, white walls, and soft textiles. Run planks parallel to the longest wall to stretch the room, or herringbone them for a tailored floor.

Luxury vinyl tile and plank is a layered resilient floor: a printed design layer under a clear wear layer, bonded to a rigid or flexible vinyl core. It is fully waterproof, warmer and quieter underfoot than tile, and forgiving of subfloor imperfections that would telegraph through stone. Modern printing and embossing reproduce wood grain and stone texture convincingly, which makes LVT a practical choice for kitchens, basements, and whole-home installs where comfort and water resistance both matter.

Luxury vinyl needs no sealing or waxing. Sweep or vacuum without a beater bar, and damp-mop with a pH-neutral cleaner made for vinyl. Avoid steam mops, abrasive scrubbers, and rubber-backed mats, which can discolor the wear layer. Use felt pads under furniture and lift rather than drag heavy pieces. Follow the manufacturer's acclimation and expansion-gap instructions during installation, and keep direct sunlight moderated with window coverings to prevent fading over years of exposure.
