Luxury vinyl tile

Home Owners looking for the perfect flooring ask themselves “how do I choose between the many available options”?

Waterproof floors (also known as Luxury Vinyl Tile) have been the fastest growing flooring segment over the past decade. The flooring product that began as a “Luxury Vinyl”, a glue down installation, has expanded to cover the entire world of floating floors. Floating floors offer reduced installation costs, BUT they also require a much more even subfloor.

All of the manufacturers have restrictions on the allowable degree of flex beneath an installed floating floor. Not more than 1/8 inch of rise or sag in a six foot span—a surprising fact to many home owners! In addition, cabinets may not be installed over floating floors–including large or small kitchen islands!

The process demands that you be aware of the environment the floor product is going to be installed in before you get deep into selecting styles, colors, or textures. Attractive patterns and colors are important, but if the installation requires a glue down installation, selecting the appropriate product is critical. If you are able to use a floating floor, buy a product that is designed to be floated.

Luxury Vinyl Tile brings natural looking wood grains and genuine stone looks to a flooring product that is softer, quieter, and easier to maintain than any wood or tile flooring product. Active family homes and vacation homes are perfect places for this exciting product category. And yes, they are waterproof! Simply wipe spills away with ease, and do no harm your floor’s appearance. With most manufacturers, when a box is opened and readied for installation, no two boards, tiles, or planks will look the same, giving the look of real wood or tile floor.

When shopping today for Luxury Vinyl you will be impressed by the many choices you can make. Choose wide plank woods up to 10 inches wide in a full range of wood grains and colors, 12 inch by 18 inch stone styles, or even 20 inch by 30 inch stone styles are available too. The feel and look of these products is amazing!

Trades people who work with Luxury Vinyl floors everyday have the experience to handle the surprises that come with each installation and the challenges each situation bring. They also have to rely on a sales team that ensures that the the right product has been specified for the installation. Between the two we rely on a workroom team that knows how to collect the materials and information the installers need to make the job go smoothly.
