Mobile Home Flooring
Vinyl Flooring for Mobile Homes
Sheet vinyl and vinyl tile for the rooms that take the most water - kitchens, baths and laundry - laid over a subfloor we repair first, not over one we hope holds.
What We Install
The most practical floor you can put in a manufactured home
Vinyl has been the default in mobile homes for decades for a reason. It is waterproof, it is forgiving of a floor that is not perfectly level, it is quiet and warm underfoot, and it goes down fast enough that most rooms are back in use the same week.
What has changed is how it looks. Today's sheet and tile print convincingly as stone, ceramic and hardwood, with texture in the surface rather than a flat gloss photograph.
We install it the way it needs to be installed in a manufactured home: over a deck that has been checked, repaired and flattened, with the seams and edges detailed so water has nowhere to get in.
Your Options
Sheet vinyl or vinyl tile
Two different products with two different strengths. We will tell you which one suits the room rather than selling you whichever is on the truck.
Sheet Vinyl
Rolled goods laid in large continuous pieces, so a small bathroom or laundry room can be covered with no seam at all.
- Fewest seams, which means the fewest ways for water to reach the deck
- The strongest choice around tubs, showers, toilets and washers
- Comfortable and quiet underfoot, with a little cushion to it
- The most economical way to cover a whole floor at once
Vinyl Tile (LVT)
Individual tiles or squares, usually in a stone or ceramic look, set in a pattern with or without a grout line.
- Reads as real tile without the weight, the cold or the cracking
- A damaged tile can be lifted and replaced on its own
- Patterns and borders you cannot get from a roll
- Works well in entries, kitchens and bathrooms
Why Vinyl
What it does better than the alternatives
Water has nowhere to go
A sheet floor with properly detailed seams and edges is the closest thing to a sealed surface you can put in a bathroom or laundry room.
Forgiving underfoot
Vinyl tolerates the small movement a manufactured home has through the seasons far better than ceramic tile, which cracks and pops grout when the floor flexes.
Warm and quiet
No cold shock on a winter morning and none of the hard echo tile gives a small room. It also takes the hollow sound out of a manufactured floor.
Fast to live on again
Once the subfloor work is done, the covering itself goes down quickly. There is no curing, no grouting and no waiting days to walk on it.
Easy to keep
Sweep and damp mop. No sealing, no waxing, no grout scrubbing and no refinishing for as long as you own the floor.
Kind to the budget
Vinyl covers the most square footage for the least money, which is what makes a whole-home refresh realistic instead of a room at a time.
How The Job Runs
The deck first, the covering second
Vinyl bonds to what is underneath it. Lay it over a damaged deck and every flaw shows through within a season.
Inspect
We walk the rooms, press out the soft spots and look for the moisture source before we quote anything.
Tear out and repair
The old covering comes up and any water damaged subflooring is cut out and replaced with sound material.
Flatten the surface
Fasteners, seams and low spots get addressed so the new vinyl has a smooth surface and nothing telegraphs through.
Lay and detail
Sheet or tile is fit to the room, seams and edges are detailed, and the perimeter is finished with trim and transitions.
Where It Works
Strongest in the wet rooms
Vinyl earns its keep anywhere water, mud or pets get involved - which in most mobile homes means the busiest rooms in the house.

Questions
What homeowners ask us about vinyl
What is the difference between this and vinyl plank?
Format, mostly. Sheet vinyl is a continuous roll and vinyl tile comes in squares, and both are typically bonded down. Vinyl plank is a thicker, rigid board that clicks together and floats over the deck. Sheet is the better answer in a wet room, plank is the better answer for a wood look across a whole home.
Can you lay it over what I have now?
Only if what you have is sound, flat and dry. Vinyl takes on the shape of whatever it sits on, so an old floor with a seam, a ridge or a soft area will show through. We check that on the walkthrough before it becomes your problem.
My bathroom floor feels spongy. Is new vinyl the fix?
No. That is a subfloor issue, usually from a slow leak, and covering it only buys a few months. We repair the deck and the leak source first, then the new floor actually lasts.
Will the seams show?
In most mobile home bathrooms and laundry rooms the sheet is wide enough that there is no seam at all. Where a seam is unavoidable we place it out of the main sightline and detail it so it is sealed as well as discreet.
How do I clean it?
Sweep the grit and damp mop with a mild cleaner. Skip wax, abrasive pads and steam mops, and put felt pads under anything heavy that gets dragged.
