The Woodland Oak — 6mm SPC Waterproof Vinyl Plank (Republic Floor)

The Woodland Oak is Republic Floor’s rigid-core SPC line built around classic oak-inspired color names, engineered for rooms where real hardwood can’t go. Each plank runs 6mm total over a stone polymer core with a 20 mil wear layer and a pre-attached acoustic EVA pad, so it’s genuinely waterproof and quiet underfoot straight out of the box. Planks measure 7.125″ x 60″ and join with an angle-drop click-lock system for a glue-free, nail-free floating install. The line ships in 7 colors spanning light brown, medium brown, and medium beige tones, is FloorScore certified, and carries a 25-Year Residential / 10-Year Commercial warranty. The Woodland Oak is available to order through our Santa Clara showroom.

Colors in The Woodland Oak

The 7 colors in The Woodland Oak stay within a classic oak-toned palette, from lighter, sun-washed beiges through warm medium browns. Names like Georgia Gray, Gray Oak, and Oregon White Oak lean cooler and lighter, while Harvard Oak, Norway Oak, Southern Oak, and Valley Oak run toward richer medium-brown tones. It’s a tight, coordinated range built for buyers who want a traditional oak look without straying into very light whitewash or very dark espresso extremes.

Best uses for The Woodland Oak

  • Kitchens — the waterproof SPC core handles spills and splashes with no swelling risk
  • Bathrooms — fully waterproof construction tolerates the humidity and moisture bathrooms see day to day
  • Basements — rated for above, on, and below-grade installation, including below-grade basement slabs
  • High-traffic areas — the 20 mil wear layer stands up to hallways, entries, and busy living spaces
  • Pet households — a rigid SPC core and durable wear layer resist scratches from claws and everyday pet traffic
  • Open-concept spaces — 7 coordinated oak tones run a single palette across connected kitchen, dining, and living areas

Choosing a color from The Woodland Oak

In north-facing or naturally darker rooms, a lighter tone like Georgia Gray, Gray Oak, or Oregon White Oak keeps the space feeling open, while sunnier rooms can carry a richer medium-brown color like Harvard Oak or Valley Oak without going dark. Hold a sample next to your cabinetry and trim before deciding, since oak-toned floors read warmer or cooler depending on the undertones already in the room. Stop by our Santa Clara showroom to see The Woodland Oak samples in person under real light before you order.

Frequently asked questions about The Woodland Oak

Is The Woodland Oak waterproof enough for a bathroom?
Yes. The Woodland Oak has a stone polymer core (SPC), which is genuinely waterproof with no soak-time limit — it won’t swell, warp, or delaminate from standing water, making it suitable for bathrooms and other wet rooms.
Can I install The Woodland Oak over radiant heat?
Yes, The Woodland Oak is compatible with hydronic and embedded radiant heat systems, provided the floor’s surface temperature stays at or below 85 degrees F.
Can I install The Woodland Oak myself?
Yes. It’s a floating click-lock floor — planks lock together with an angle-drop system and no glue or nails are required. Start left to right and stagger end joints at least 6″ for a natural layout.
Do I need a moisture barrier under The Woodland Oak?
Over a concrete subfloor, yes — install a 6-mil poly moisture/vapor barrier before laying the planks. The subfloor must also be clean, dry, and flat within 3/16″ over 10 ft.
How many cartons of The Woodland Oak do I need?
Each carton of The Woodland Oak covers 23.76 sq ft. Measure your room’s square footage, add roughly 10% for cuts and waste, and divide by 23.76 to get the carton count.
