Luxury vinyl flooring: style meets performance

What are the benefits of luxury vinyl flooring?

Luxury vinyl flooring is an excellent choice for nearly every room thanks to its combination of performance and style.

• Waterproof performance: LVP and LVT flooring are waterproof, making them ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, mudrooms, and basements.
• Exceptional durability: A protective wear layer helps resist scratches, dents, stains, and everyday traffic, making luxury vinyl perfect for families with kids and pets.
• Comfort underfoot: Luxury vinyl tile feels warmer and softer than ceramic tile while helping reduce everyday noise.
• Realistic designs: Modern printing and embossing technology create authentic wood and stone visuals in a wide variety of styles.
• Great value: Luxury vinyl tile and luxury vinyl plank flooring deliver the appearance of premium materials at a more affordable price while requiring less maintenance.

When comparing luxury vinyl flooring, two specifications deserve special attention.

• Wear layer: The wear layer protects the decorative surface from scratches and everyday wear. Higher-traffic spaces generally benefit from a thicker wear layer for greater long-term durability.
• Thickness: Overall thickness contributes to comfort, stability, and sound reduction. A thicker floor may also help minimize the appearance of minor subfloor imperfections.

Our experienced flooring specialists can help you compare products and choose the right combination of wear layer and thickness for your home.

Luxury vinyl flooring offers nearly endless design possibilities.
