Duchess, Hickory, Courtier Rigid Waterproof Floors.

Ten plus years ago we started in the flooring industry as Hallmark Hardwoods. We started with our Heirloom collection, which took the market by surprise with its longer lengths and wide widths, not to mention the beautifully handcrafted textures and colors. We have expanded our product line over the years to include water resistant flooring and commercial floors. Our passion for fashion and beautiful floors has not ceased. We continue to push forward with new innovative flooring.

We have a passion for making floors, but it is our superior craftsmanship, quality and the local neighborhood flooring dealer that made us the fastest growing flooring manufacturer in the United States today. If you would like to see the collections in person, because photos never do our floors justice, visit a local dealer near you.

All waterproof vinyl floors fall under one category called resilient flooring. Each type of resilient floor has its own unique construction, but the one thing they all have in common is P.V.C, (polyvinyl chloride). Each of these floors will have a percentage of PVC in them of vary amounts. PVC is why some refer to resilient floors as waterproof.

PVC is also known as plastic or vinyl, and it has been around for decades, but the new category of flooring, called M.L.F. (multi-layer floors) has changed the resilient flooring category forever. These floors are not like anything your mother or grandmothers had in their kitchen or home. Technological advances have made it possible to create a very durable, waterproof, and fashionable resilient floor that looks like real wood, linen, or stone.
