We are loving our early Christmas gift of vinyl flooring! We’ve been living on these floors for nearly a month and can’t recommend them enough. They’re durable, hide dirt well, they’re easy to clean and friends constantly ask if they’re hardwood or ceramic tile.
I can’t believe how different flooring changes a home. Here is my current entryway:
And the entryway before…like, WAY before:
Then more recently:
During the install process:
What a change! The entryway is just off the craft room.
Remember the install??
Head through the entryway to get to the backside of the house where we replaced the rest of the floors.
My bathroom is getting gutted soon, I cannot WAIT!
The hallway after and during:
When we removed the board and batten wall treatment, it ripped off several pieces of drywall. It took half a day to sand and patch then another 24 hours to dry. We lightly sanded it down then painted the walls Moonshine by Benjamin Moore because I love Anni’s nursery colors.
My younger daughter’s room is the only of the three bedrooms that is 100% put back together so far.
I’ve showed my son’s shared room before but doesn’t it look amazing with new floors? Their new beds are being custom built (by my husband) and aren’t finished so look for a grand reveal of this room soon. It’s coming together nicely!
My oldest daughter’s room is partway done as well. That’s what happens when you renovate in the middle of the holidays, I suppose. The floors make a major difference! She is in LOVE with them. We’re going to hang more string lights and style her walls then share the rest of her space.
The whole process was pain free! I had several people warn me that renovations are a nightmare and will test your marriage, lol! Thanks to Go Haus, we didn’t feel any of those effects and slept in our own house throughout the process. From the free flooring samples to the recommended installer and the great customer service, it was a breeze. We also like that Go Haus doesn’t take shortcuts when it comes to safety and sustainability. Yes, it helps that we only replaced 1/3 of the house thus far.
We’re hoping to tackle the kitchen and beyond in 2017. It’s been so fun to share each step with you! I hope you’ve found our honest reviews helpful. We really loved working with Go Haus and can’t tell you how happy we are with them!

Gay says
Love your floors. It looks similar to what we’ve bought for our school bus conversion. (Multi-Width Harrison Pine Dark by Allure ISOCORE from Home Depot.) Makes me happy to see how good yours look. I maight want to put them in our next house. (We’re moving to FL on the bus in April or May.)
Lolly Jane says
School bus conversion!? That is AWESOME. We’ve heard a LOT about Allure, I’m sure it looks great! Definitely order your free samples, we LOVE these floors!

Jenny Young says
We had sheet vinyl flooring installed in our kitchen & bathrooms almost two yrs ago & then more added to our open living area & hallway a year & a half ago. We love it! It is the most comfortable floor to walk on, it’s so much easier to keep clean than anything I’ve ever owned. I clean it more because it just looks so good!
We chose sheet vinyl over plank because our house is old & not level. I would add it again in an instant & can’t wait until we can do the rest of the house.
Lolly Jane says
This makes me so happy to hear, my husband was so worried about if he would love it long-term and your comment made our day! Thanks for popping by! 🙂
Lolly Jane says
That’s great to know! I’m so glad to hear you love it, makes me even more confident about our choice! We too, live in an old house, I feel you on that, sister!
Marie says

Lolly Jane says
Thank you, Erlene! It’s a work in progress but we’re getting there 🙂
Stacey says
Your floors look great! I’m in love with that entry bench!! Did you make it?
Lolly Jane says
Hi Stacey! I got it on a local facebook sell group for $60! Such a steal since it’s 10′ long. It was covered is nasty maroon fabric and has been sitting outside in the weather for awhile. I took out 400 staples!!—then painted it. I love it too, search church pews, you’re sure to find one! XO
Carolyn says
Do you still love the floors and how are they holding up? I am searching to find the right flooring but I am struggling real bad with both color and quality. Do you have any space that is direct sun? Are they slippery? Do they have a texture that feels similar to wood? Sorry I have so many questions.
Lolly Jane says
Hi Carolyn! Ask away, that’s why we wrote the post– sharing things we wish we knew before vinyl flooring 🙂
Do you still love the floors and how are they holding up? Holding up great- hard to scratch and marks mop up pretty easily. I spilled a quart of latex paint on them and let it dry completely then it PEELED UP! Crazy cool!
I am searching to find the right flooring but I am struggling real bad with both color and quality. GoHaus has a huge selection, I was impressed. Their quality is outstanding!
Do you have any space that is direct sun? Yes, 3 rooms have direct sun and the flooring shouldn’t affect it due to the high quality; no fading thus far!
Are they slippery? Not at all! They are smooth but have a wood-like texture to them so they’re not slippery and in case they come in contact with water they won’t warp. (That’s why we got them in the first place, our other floors were ruined from a flood. Aaah!)
Do they have a texture that feels similar to wood? Yes, as mentioned above they feel almost carved, or have a hand scraped feel to them. I can’t say enough positive things about these floors!
