Guhde Flooring America adds another waterproof flooring option to the mix
By Patricia Nugent
There’s a reason they call it “spring cleaning.” As soon as the snow bids us adieu and we trade in our shovels for umbrellas, dogs and kids will be tracking in mud and dirt all over your floors.
But fear not. Monica Guhde-Rosa and Shawn Rosa, of Guhde Flooring America, share that there’s a new wave of virtually waterproof carpet and flooring on the market.
“Everyone loves the look of hardwood floors,” says Monica.
“And now with Downs H2O, they can get that look without worrying about moisture. Our most popular style is the luxury vinyl planks that realistically mimic the look of wood, while being guaranteed 100 percent waterproof and scratch resistant. This kid-proof, pet-proof flooring option even comes with a lifetime residential warranty.”
In addition to its unparalleled wearability, another benefit is that Downs H2O flooring is extremely easy to clean. You either dry mop it or use a spray cleaner and microfiber mop.
Guhde Flooring carries a wide variety of water-resistant flooring, including carpeting, luxury vinyl tiles and planks, sheet vinyl and ceramic and porcelain tile.
Adds Shawn, “With today’s open floor plans, homeowners often choose to put down the same style flooring throughout the first floor. And waterproof flooring allows them to do that without worrying about entryways, bathrooms and kitchens. This flooring is also ideal for basements.”
Downs H2O and the Tigressa H2O lines of carpeting with waterproof backing have also revolutionized the flooring business.
“Nothing can penetrate the backing and seep through to the padding or subfloor,” he explains. “It’s especially nice for containing spills, too. This creates a new level of durability and longevity. Both lines feature a variety of colors, patterns and styles.”
