Luxury Vinyl Tile Flooring
What is Luxury Vinyl Tile Flooring (LVT)?
Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) flooring is a type of vinyl flooring that is designed to mimic the look of natural materials such as wood or stone. It is made up of several layers, including a wear layer, a printed design layer, and a backing layer. LVT is a popular choice for residential and commercial spaces because it is durable, easy to maintain, and can be made to look like a variety of high-end flooring materials. It is also a cost-effective alternative to natural materials, and is effective in areas that are subject to moisture, such as bathrooms and kitchens.
Why should I choose LVT over traditional laminte?
Luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and laminate flooring are both popular choices for residential and commercial spaces, but they have some key differences that may make one a better option than the other depending on the specific needs and preferences of the homeowner or designer.
Some reasons to choose LVT over laminate include:
- LVT is more durable and resistant to wear and tear than laminate. It can withstand heavy foot traffic and is less likely to scratch or dent. The lifespan of most LVT flooring is 25 years where laminate tends to be around 15 years on average at the highest range.
- LVT has a more realistic and natural look and feel than laminate, especially when it comes to mimicking the look of stone or wood.
- LVT is more water resistant than laminate, making it a better option for areas of the home that are prone to moisture, such as bathrooms and kitchens.
- LVT is warmer and softer underfoot than laminate.
- LVT has a wide range of design options such as planks or tiles in various patterns, designs and colors.
In summary, if you want a more realistic, natural look and feel, better water resistance, durability and design options, and a softer underfoot, then Luxury Vinyl Tile is a better option than laminate flooring.
