Waterproof Flooring
for Wet Areas &
Moisture-Prone Spaces
Carpet Services Incorporated (CSI) installs 100% waterproof flooring perfect for Chicagoland basements, kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms. Never worry about water damage again.
Complete Waterproof Flooring Solutions for Chicagoland Homes
Chicagoland's climate and soil conditions create unique moisture challenges for homeowners. Basements experience hydrostatic pressure, kitchens face daily spills, and bathrooms deal with constant humidity. At Carpet Services Incorporated (CSI), we specialize in waterproof flooring that stands up to these challenges without warping, swelling, or deteriorating.
Unlike water-resistant options that eventually fail, true waterproof flooring features an impermeable core that won't absorb moisture under any circumstances. Whether you're finishing a basement in Naperville, renovating a kitchen in Chicago, or updating a bathroom in Schaumburg, CSI offers multiple waterproof options including luxury vinyl plank (LVP), porcelain tile, ceramic tile, and commercial-grade sheet vinyl.
Our certified installation teams perform moisture testing on all concrete subfloors and install appropriate vapor barriers or moisture mitigation systems when needed. This ensures your waterproof flooring performs flawlessly for decades, protecting your investment and your home's value.

Waterproof Flooring Installation Process
Proper installation is critical for waterproof flooring performance. CSI follows a meticulous process to ensure moisture protection.
We test concrete slabs for moisture vapor emission rates (MVER) to determine if moisture mitigation is required.
Subfloor is cleaned, leveled, and repaired. Any moisture issues are addressed with appropriate barriers.
Vapor barriers or moisture mitigation systems installed when MVER exceeds manufacturer specifications.
CSI crews install your waterproof flooring with precision, ensuring tight seams and proper transitions.
We verify proper installation, check all seams and transitions, and ensure your floor is ready for use.

What Chicagoland Homeowners Are Saying
Real results from waterproof flooring installations across the region.
"Our basement in Naperville always had moisture issues. CSI tested the slab, installed a vapor barrier, and then put down luxury vinyl plank. It's been three years and not a single issue. The floor looks brand new and we finally have a usable basement space. Highly recommend their waterproof flooring expertise."
"We needed waterproof flooring for our restaurant kitchen in Chicago. CSI installed commercial-grade sheet vinyl with heat-welded seams. It handles constant water, grease, and heavy traffic without any problems. The seamless installation makes cleaning so much easier. Professional work from start to finish."
"After a plumbing leak destroyed our old flooring, we switched to waterproof LVP throughout the first floor. CSI helped us select a beautiful oak-look plank that's completely waterproof. We've had several spills since installation and there's zero damage. The peace of mind is worth every penny."
