Best flooring for dogs

Floors For paws. Officially the Worlds best flooring for dogs & dog owners.

Over the last 20 years Dog owners have discovered the limitations of many different flooring types for dogs; carpet, laminate, wood and tile. Each of which has limitations; either impossible to maintain, slippery, or non-resistant to scratches.

With the introduction of Luxury Vinyl dog owners and indeed dogs exclaimed a cry of ‘halleluiah’ Here was something that offered us a solution. Waterproof, stain resistant and hard wearing.

What is the Best Floor to Have with Dogs?

The best flooring for dogs should be durable, scratch-resistant, and easy to clean. Here are some top recommendations:

Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP): LVP is a popular choice for pet owners because it is highly durable, water-resistant, and mimics the look of hardwood.

Tile Flooring: Both ceramic and porcelain tiles are incredibly durable and water-resistant. They are easy to clean and maintain, though they can be cold and hard underfoot and some are slippery for dogs

Engineered Hardwood: This type of hardwood is more resistant to moisture and temperature changes compared to solid hardwood. Look for options with a tough, scratch-resistant finish.

Cork Flooring: Cork is naturally resistant to mould, mildew, and water. It’s also softer underfoot, which can be more comfortable for dogs and quieter compared to other hard flooring options but can be difficult to maintain and keep clean

Will Dog Pee Ruin Vinyl Planks?

Vinyl planks are known for their durability and resistance to moisture, making them a suitable option for homes with pets. Dog urine will not ruin vinyl planks if cleaned promptly. Many luxury vinyl planks are designed to be waterproof, which prevents liquids from seeping through and causing damage as long as they are glued down with the appropriate adhesive on a properly prepared sub-floor.

Despite this, the best practice is to wipe up spills as soon as possible to avoid bad odours.

Imagine taking that solution and making it even better! With the introduction of a double wear layer and industry leading PTV slip ratings, Floors For Paws can now offer dogs and dog owners a flooring that is Scratch resistant, water proof, stain resistant, anti-slip and with the advancements in printing technology a flooring that has the look, warmth and feel of natural products.

Floors for paws Luxury vinyl is the best floor finish for dog owners due to its durability, water resistance, slip-resistance and comfort.

Dogs and Carpets

As Dog lovers we all know the limitations of carpets in a pet friendly house.

To begin with your family relishes the soft cushioned underfoot feel of the carpet; it looks great for the first few weeks and we don’t mind giving it a vacuum every few days. After 12 weeks of the dog trailing its wet paws over it, we need to go a bit deeper with the cleaning, so we use a carpet shampoo. That brings it back to nearly its best. Three months later its ready for another clean, but the stains aren’t coming out. ‘Right’ we say ‘we are going to have to get this deep cleaned!’

The cycle continues for a couple of years and we now have every carpet cleaning chemical known to man in our kitchen cleaning cupboard….and yet the carpet is looking dirty and tired.

Not only that – the allergens in your carpet are building and building and no amount of cleaning can get them out of the fibres. Not good.

Say good bye to scrubbing, say goodbye to stains. Floors For Paws offers a unique solution for dog owners’ homes. Anti-stain, Anti-slip, Anti-Scuff and hypo-allergenic.
