Is it time to upgrade your existing flooring, flip a property, or build a new home? If so, the time is now to start looking at Luxury Vinyl Flooring. The best vinyl plank flooring brands offer an affordable, waterproof, faux wood flooring product with excellent warmth/texture and installs with a peel-and-stick technique or clicks together with ease. Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) is a luxury vinyl product that looks like stone or ceramic tile, complete with gorgeous natural colors and surface texture that feels like the real thing. Some styles are even made to be installed with grout, but installation will increase due to the labor. Talk about realistic! We have listed three reasons below for why you should use luxury vinyl. Let’s take a look!
The Product Will Not Break the Bank
Your LVP flooring will be a fraction of the cost of hardwood flooring. In fact, LVP’s installation is so much easier to install than hardwood floors, ceramic tile, or natural stone. This feature is a benefit to the homeowner with lower installation charges compared to standard flooring installation charges. With a reasonable installation and product cost, homeowners can have a beautiful flooring product at a great price.
It Is Stunning
Luxury Vinyl is absolutely gorgeous and has come a very long way regarding its technology and appearance. It will look and feel like hardwood, ceramic tile, and natural stone. In fact, you will be amazed at the styles and colors available in Luxury Vinyl.
It Is Durable
Everyday wear and tear is a given on flooring with children, pets, water spills, etc. Even the best engineered wood flooring tends to get scratched and can suffer water damage if spills are not cleaned. Linoleum may eventually start to tear and rip while carpet can get stained and lose its shape. Flooring installers and experts will tell you that LVP floors are tough as nails! Many brands are 100% waterproof and constructed with cork backing, making the floors comfortable, quiet, and forgiving when items are dropped. If you have children and pets, you know how loud it can be when they are running through the house on hardwood and tile floors. Again, with the cork backing, the floors are more soundproof while being easier on your back and legs if standing for long periods of time.
All in all, luxury vinyl is an incredible flooring solution. Be sure to ask your sales representative for more information to learn everything that this incredible product has to offer.
What about indentations from heavy furniture?
Hi, Ron,
Heavy furniture can leave indentations; therefore, it is best to use pads to disperse the weight.
Thanks for your question,
From the Floors up
It is a nice article about three reasons about why you should use luxury vinyl in your house. I agree with all your points that you have stated here, love this blog.
I like how you mentioned that LVP looks really familiar to stone to ceramic and also feels like it too with beautiful natural coloring and textures. My wife and I are thinking of getting luxury vinyl flooring because we’re considering renovating our basement into a gaming arcade for our children. I think it’s a good idea for us to consider all of our options when choosing a reputable professional to help us decide what flooring would be best in our renovation project.
I also used to with LVP flooring, this is one the best trending flooring system, very reliable and long-lasting, simple but gorgeous I must say. Thanks for these tips.
