SmartCore Ultra Flooring Siena Stone | Luxury Vinyl Tile
Our SmartCore Ultra Flooring Siena Stone captures the warm, textured beauty of natural travertine with the unmatched durability of luxury vinyl tile. This stone-look flooring features authentic embossing that follows the visual grain, creating realistic depth and dimension in every plank. Siena Stone works beautifully in kitchens, bathrooms, entryways, and basements where moisture resistance matters most.
We engineered Siena Stone with our Ultra construction for spaces that demand both style and performance. The 100% waterproof core protects against spills, pet accidents, and humidity, while the attached underlayment reduces noise and adds comfort underfoot. Installation is straightforward with our rigid click-lock system that floats over most existing floors without glue or nails.

Authentic Stone Visual with Registered Embossing
Siena Stone replicates the soft, porous texture of Italian travertine through high-definition printing and registered embossing technology. Each plank features natural stone color variation in warm beige, cream, and subtle tan tones that coordinate with both traditional and contemporary design styles. The embossing follows the printed visual exactly, so your fingertips feel the same texture your eyes see.
Unlike ceramic or natural stone that requires professional installation and ongoing sealing, our luxury vinyl tile delivers the same aesthetic without the maintenance burden. The stone-look surface resists staining from wine, coffee, and everyday spills that would penetrate real travertine. If you’re considering stone flooring for high-traffic areas, our tile and stone collection offers multiple textures and finishes to match your project needs.
Waterproof Core for Wet Areas
We built SmartCore Ultra Flooring Siena Stone with a stone polymer composite core that’s completely waterproof from top to bottom. This rigid construction won’t swell, warp, or delaminate when exposed to standing water, making it ideal for bathrooms, laundry rooms, mudrooms, and basements. The waterproof barrier extends through the entire plank thickness, not just a surface coating.
The attached underlayment adds a moisture barrier between your subfloor and the vinyl tile, preventing humidity from below while cushioning footsteps. Installation in bathrooms and kitchens requires no special acclimation period, and you can walk on the floor immediately after installation. For spaces where concrete or slate aesthetics work better, options like Sedona Concrete provide the same waterproof performance with different visual textures.
Installation and Subfloor Compatibility
Rigid Click-Lock System
Siena Stone installs as a floating floor using our rigid click-lock mechanism. The planks angle and lock together without adhesive, creating a stable surface that can be installed over concrete, existing vinyl, ceramic tile, or wood subfloors. The rigid core prevents telegraphing of minor subfloor imperfections, though we recommend addressing any major cracks or height variations before installation.
You can install Siena Stone in rooms up to 2,000 square feet without transition strips, and the planks can be cut with a utility knife and straightedge for quick trimming. Most DIY installers complete a 200-square-foot room in a single day. The flooring is compatible with radiant heating systems up to 85°F, making it suitable for year-round comfort in colder climates.

Common Questions About Siena Stone Flooring
Yes, Siena Stone is 100% waterproof and specifically designed for moisture-prone areas like bathrooms, laundry rooms, and basements. The rigid core won't swell or warp when exposed to standing water, and the attached underlayment provides additional moisture protection between the flooring and subfloor. You can install it right up to showers, tubs, and toilets without transition strips.
Siena Stone features registered embossing that creates a realistic stone texture you can feel, though it's slightly smoother than natural travertine's porous surface. The attached underlayment adds cushioning that makes the floor more comfortable to stand on for long periods compared to hard ceramic or stone tile. The surface stays warmer to the touch than natural stone, which many customers prefer in bathrooms and bedrooms.
Siena Stone offers the same stone-look aesthetic as ceramic tile but installs faster, costs less, and requires no maintenance beyond regular mopping. Unlike ceramic, it's completely waterproof through the core rather than relying on grout lines that can fail. The luxury vinyl construction is warmer and quieter underfoot, and individual planks can be replaced if damaged without professional help.
Yes, SmartCore Ultra Siena Stone can be installed as a floating floor over existing ceramic tile, vinyl, or laminate as long as the surface is clean, level, and structurally sound. The rigid core construction bridges minor imperfections in the existing floor. You don't need to remove old flooring unless it's damaged, loose, or creates significant height variations.
Regular maintenance requires only sweeping or vacuuming to remove loose dirt, followed by damp mopping with a pH-neutral floor cleaner. The waterproof surface resists staining from common household spills, and you don't need to apply wax, polish, or sealers. Avoid steam mops and abrasive scrubbers that can dull the protective wear layer over time.
Yes, SmartCore Ultra Flooring Siena Stone works with radiant heating systems as long as the surface temperature doesn't exceed 85°F. The rigid vinyl construction conducts heat efficiently without warping, and the attached underlayment won't impede heat transfer. Always follow the radiant system manufacturer's guidelines for flooring compatibility and installation procedures.
Siena Stone can be installed in continuous spaces up to 2,000 square feet without expansion transitions, making it ideal for open-concept floor plans. The rigid click-lock system creates a stable floating floor that accommodates normal expansion and contraction. For rooms larger than 2,000 square feet or unusual shapes, we recommend consulting installation guidelines for transition placement.
