Answer

DIY luxury vinyl plank flooring holds up exceptionally well in homes with pets. LVP offers a durable wear layer that resists scratches from claws and high moisture tolerance for accidents. Mid-tier or thicker-core LVP with at least a twenty mil wear layer ensures daily life durability. It’s also easy to clean muddy paws with a damp cloth without damage. Proper subfloor prep and meticulous installation enhance resistance, giving you floors that stay attractive and maintain integrity for years with pets.
