Frequently Asked Questions
Will it scratch from pets or furniture?
London Elm’s 20 mil wear layer resists scratches from pet claws and furniture legs better than most standard LVP. For extended life, use felt pads under heavy furniture and trim pet nails regularly.
How do I get this flooring?
You can pick up your order at our Santa Clara showroom at 891 Laurelwood Rd, Suite 101, or we deliver to homes within a 60-mile radius of Santa Clara. We also ship nationwide. Call or text us to arrange pickup, delivery, or shipping for your London Elm order.
How much expansion gap is needed?
London Elm requires a 1/4-inch expansion gap at all walls, fixed cabinets, and pipes. This gap lets the SPC planks flex with minor temperature changes without buckling or gapping.
What kind of subfloor do I need?
London Elm installs over most subfloors — plywood, OSB, concrete, tile, or even existing vinyl. The subfloor must be flat to within 3/16 inch over 10 feet and structurally sound.
Is this flooring 100% waterproof?
London Elm is built on a 100% waterproof SPC (Solid Polymer Core) rigid core. It will not swell, warp, buckle, or delaminate from water or moisture exposure — making it safe for kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and laundry rooms.
