Remember when vinyl meant those ugly peel-and-stick squares your grandma had? Yeah, that’s ancient history. Today’s vinyl flooring looks so much like real hardwood or natural stone that your neighbours will think you won the lottery. It’s completely waterproof, scratch-resistant, soft underfoot, and costs a fraction of the real thing. At Barrie Oaks Flooring we’ve helped hundreds of families ditch their tired old floors and fall in love with their homes again, all without the scary price tag.
