Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free set of vinyl-plank flooring tools for checking a floor, estimating materials, browsing project photos, and following an installation guide.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-01 issue.

For: DIY homeowners weighing vinyl plank flooring
Worth noticing: Its checklist compares seams, surface texture, underlayment, click edges, and wear; the site says it does not identify flooring from images.

Field notes

The checklist offers comparison choices for vinyl, tile, and wood, including visible grout, foam backing, click profiles, and signs of wear. The measurement calculator asks for room length and width, then estimates waste and the number of boxes and planks. The linked learning material extends from wear layers and room suitability to tools, installation, care, and repairs; the page also cautions that its report is not a licensed inspection.
