Audacity’s laminate is waterproof by design. It starts with an extra-stable, high-density core, with every edge protected by a specially developed multi-layer sealant to help block moisture. Combined with a tight-lock click system that uses 5× more contact points than standard laminate, each plank forms a stronger, tighter seal to help keep water out.
The Fearless Waterproof Laminate Flooring
Audacity’s waterproof laminate flooring is fearless to water. While standard laminate swells and warps at the first sign of moisture, Audacity is engineered to keep it out. It stands up to spills, splashes, scratches, and everyday wear in every room of your home. See exactly what makes it waterproof, how it performs, the looks available, and where to find it near you.
WHY CHOOSE AUDACITY'S WATERPROOF LAMINATE?
With Audacity, we’ve solved the single biggest weakness of natural, wood-based flooring: moisture. Our waterproof laminate keeps water out long enough for you to clean it up. Install it confidently in the rooms standard laminate can’t handle, including kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms. It’s the difference between a floor you have to protect and a floor that protects itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is laminate flooring waterproof? +
Ordinary laminate is not. It’s wood-based, so standing water can cause it to swell and warp. Audacity’s waterproof laminate is the exception. It is designed with a high-density, extra-stable core, every edge protected by a specially developed multi-layer sealant, and a tight-lock click system that keeps moisture out.
-
Can you use waterproof laminate flooring in a bathroom? +
Waterproof laminate flooring is suitable for bathrooms and other moisture-prone areas that ordinary laminate can’t handle. Audacity is designed to keep moisture out, making it a reliable choice for kitchens and laundry rooms, too. For best results, apply silicone sealant to the expansion gaps around the perimeter and at all vertical interruptions. For more information, see our Installation & Warranties page.
-
How long does waterproof laminate flooring last? +
With normal household care, a quality waterproof laminate floor can last for many years. Audacity’s waterproof laminate is backed by both residential and commercial warranties. For best results, follow the manufacturer’s installation and maintenance guidelines. For more information, see our Installation & Warranties page.
-
Does waterproof laminate flooring need acclimation before installation? +
Acclimation before installation is recommended for best results, even with waterproof laminate. Although Audacity’s extra-stable core minimizes the expansion and contraction you’d see with ordinary laminate, it is best to keep the unopened packages in the installation room for at least 48 hours before installing. For more information, see our Installation & Warranties page.
-
Where can I buy Audacity's waterproof laminate flooring? +
Audacity is available through local retailers across the U.S. Use our Store Locator to find an Audacity retailer near you or send us an inquiry, and we’ll help point you in the right direction.
