Thank you for your help choosing the best vinyl plank flooring for our house. After lots and lots (and lots) of thought, we decided to warm up the house a bit with Provenza MaxCore Waterproof LVP in the color Finally Mine. It’s finally installed and I’m SO excited to show it to you. It has made such a huge difference in our house, and I hope you enjoy this Provenza vinyl flooring review. No more patchy floors and weird transitions! To give you a little reminder, this is what my entryway looked like before. You were greeted with a big, ugly carpet stair landing as soon as you walked in the front door.
A little paint and new vinyl flooring made such a big impact. My photos don’t even do the flooring justice, it’s so beautiful! When the contractor helpers showed up, one of them remarked, “Oh, I didn’t know we were installing hardwood today.” He was shocked to find out it was vinyl, and kept talking about what good quality it was.
We went back and forth on what to do with that bottom step and landing. To save on costs (and to save my children from hurting themselves on the stairs), we knew we wanted carpet for the majority of the steps. I wasn’t sure if it would look funny to have vinyl only on that bottom part, but I love how it turned out. It looks so much better, and I know it’s going to stay a lot cleaner this way.
My contractor suggested angled corners instead of square to keep the kids from getting hurt on sharp corners. That was definitely a good call.
Here’s what the dining room, to the left, looked like before.
It looks so much better with a single type of flooring in the space.
One of the best things about Provenza MaxCore Waterproof LVP is that you can use it in any room. Since it’s waterproof, I don’t have to worry about it getting ruined in the bathroom. It’s much easier to install than tile, which also helped cut down on installation costs. I still need to get a new vanity top in here, but that’s a project for another day.
Here’s the hallway that comes in from the garage, by the bathroom. It used to be tile.
And here’s what my kitchen looked like before. Notice the three different floors in one photo.
New paint, flooring and hardware made my kitchen look completely different!
My kids can spill as much as they want, my dishwasher can spring a leak, and I know that my Provenza MaxCore Waterproof LVP flooring will be just fine!
And finally, here’s a before and after of the family room.
My whole house looks so much bigger and brighter with a solid flooring throughout, and I’m so happy with the choice that we made.

Looks great! Did you install it over the existing wood/tile or did you demo everything first? Thanks!
Jessica @ Cutesy Crafts says
We demoed everything first. Since we had carpet, tile, and wood, they were all different heights. If it was all tile, we could have floated over it.

I love your new floor! We have engineered hardwood much the same as yours throughout the house and it’s too dark for our taste! You just gave the honey a go to list for our next house so that the flooring is perfect (he picked out the house when I was working on my masters degree so all I saw was a picture). So here’s to the great kitchen he picked out and to our next house having a beautiful floor like yours! Thanks for sharing the review so I know what to look forward to in about 3 years!
Jessica @ Cutesy Crafts says
Thank you so much! I LOVE the lighter color. It definitely brightens things up.
LORENA A BOUTIN says
Everything looks beautiful. It really does make a difference with the same flooring thru out.
Jessica @ Cutesy Crafts says
Thank you! Yes, I love it!
Sarah says
Everything looks perfect ! I loved the transformation ā¤ļø Congratulations on your new home.

Thank you!
Johnnie says
Did you take it upstairs also into hallway and bedrooms? I didnt know this could be installed on stairs also.
Jessica @ Cutesy Crafts says
I didn’t take it all the way up the stairs just because my kids are clumsy, and we like carpet upstairs. š You can definitely go all the way up the stairs, in the bedrooms, bathrooms, closets, everywhere!
Lauren Lockhart says
Love this! I’ve been on the hunt for 3 years for a truly waterproof commercial plank flooring and your reviews have been so helpful! How much did you pay per sq. foot before installation, if you don’t mind me asking?
Jessica @ Cutesy Crafts says
That’s probably going to vary based on the retailer you use. Here’s a link to their retailer finder so you can find one near you: https://www.provenzafloors.com/retailers

Jessica, your floors are beautiful. Love the stairway landing. The kitchen
hardly looks like the same one. Glad you have it like you wanted.
Blessings. Enjoy.

Hi Jessica,
Your floors look so nice. We are having a heck of a time deciding.
How is the texture of your vinyl floors? Are they ribbed? The Provenza sample we have has that ribbed texture and Iām not sure how comfy that is on our feet over time.
Thanks for your time
JoAnn
Jessica @ Cutesy Crafts says
Thank you! It does have some texture on it, but I don’t notice it walking around. I had to lean down and feel it just now to check. Haha!
