Types of Vinyl Flooring

There are many benefits to choosing luxury vinyl flooring for your home. Not only is it a durable option for homes, but it can be installed in a wide range of areas. Entryways, living rooms, dining rooms, laundry rooms, bedrooms, and playrooms are all places where vinyl flooring is ideal. Luxury vinyl flooring can be installed in basements and finished attics as well, which is perfect for homeowners who want their spaces to have durable floors, style, and reliable floors. With the popularity of luxury vinyl growing every day, there are a few different types available on the market.

Luxury vinyl tiles are a type of luxury vinyl that are comfortable underfoot and look like traditional tiles. They beautifully emulate their natural counterparts, and they have the thickest wear layer in the industry, making them incredibly durable. You can choose luxury vinyl tiles that are waterproof and exceptionally slip-resistant, which is perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, entryways, hallways, and commercial settings like restaurants and cafes. While most luxury vinyl products are water-resistant, waterproof tiles won’t allow long-standing puddles to sink into the vinyl, and they prevent moisture from reaching the subfloor and causing long-term damage. Another benefit of luxury vinyl tile is that it’s constructed in durable layers that don’t warp with humidity and can withstand heavy foot traffic. It’s also softer and warmer underfoot than natural tile, and won’t chip or crack over the years, or because of a dropped object.

Luxury vinyl planks are another type of luxury vinyl on the market. The dimensions of these planks do a great job of mimicking genuine hardwood because they are long and narrow. Vinyl planks are constructed using high-definition photos of hardwood so that they can get the truly authentic wood look. Each plank is made using high-definition imaging and modern embossing techniques to emulate the genuine look and feel of real hardwood. Vinyl plank flooring is a stylish and affordable flooring option that’s perfect for any home and ideal for commercial settings.

Is Vinyl Flooring Waterproof?

Most luxury vinyl flooring varieties are water-resistant, but only some are completely waterproof. Waterproof luxury vinyl flooring creates a seal that keeps liquid from seeping into the subfloor, protecting your home from possible damages. You won’t have to worry about spills or accidents from children or pets with waterproof floors because they won’t buckle since they are waterproof. We specialize in both kid-friendly flooring and pet-friendly flooring options and offer a wide range of waterproof, stain-resistant, and moisture-resistant flooring options. 

Where Can Vinyl Flooring Be Installed?

Luxury vinyl flooring installation is simple and fast. It’s versatile in terms of where it can be installed, and vinyl plank flooring costs are affordable, especially compared to real hardwood and tile. Vinyl wood flooring is installed using a variety of techniques. You can find glue-down vinyl plank, which is attached directly to the subfloor below. We also offer floating vinyl flooring and vinyl wood flooring rapid locking systems. Floating vinyl plank flooring isn’t permanently attached to the surface below and can be walked on the same day as installation.
