Luxury vinyl flooring has become a popular choice among homeowners and interior designers alike, offering an affordable alternative to traditional hardwood or tile flooring. With advancements in technology, vinyl flooring has been transformed into a durable and stylish option for those looking for high-end flooring.
Luxury vinyl flooring, also known as LVT (luxury vinyl tile) or LVP (luxury vinyl plank), is a type of vinyl flooring that simulates the look of hardwood, tile, or stone flooring. It is made up of several layers, including a base layer, a printed design layer, and a clear protective layer. The protective layer, also known as the wear layer, is what gives luxury vinyl flooring its durability.
Luxury vinyl flooring offers a range of benefits, including durability, easy maintenance, water resistance, and cost-effectiveness. With a range of design options and easy installation methods, luxury vinyl flooring is a great option for those looking for high-end flooring at an affordable price.

Glue-Down
Glue-down installation involves gluing the vinyl flooring directly to the subfloor. This method is best for concrete or plywood subfloors.
Floating
Floating installation involves clicking the vinyl planks or tiles together without glue or adhesive. This method is best for those who want to install the flooring themselves.
Loose-Lay
Loose-lay installation involves laying the vinyl flooring on top of the subfloor without glue or adhesive. This method is best for those who want a temporary flooring option.
Maintenance
Luxury vinyl flooring is easy to maintain and requires only regular sweeping and occasional mopping. It is important to avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive tools when cleaning luxury vinyl flooring.
