This striking vinyl flooring would be a stunning addition to a contemporary home, especially in the kitchen or living room. However, because it is beautifully neutral and versatile, it would enhance any room and go with different colour and décor themes effortlessly. Our vinyl flooring is designed to last many years even after heavy domestic use. Therefore, don’t worry if you’re planning on laying it in areas that experience high foot traffic - your vinyl will stand up to almost anything. Not only this, but it is extremely easy to clean, as well as being stain, water and scratch proof, meaning many homeowners opt for it in rooms that see more exposure to these. This flooring is ideal if you adore the natural beauty of real wood, but need something easier to manage and at a cheaper price. The knots, grains and variation of colours make for a convincing imitation of oak, something very desirable with homeowners. Not only this, but you can install under floor heating with vinyl, not something you can do with real wood due to it warping under heat. Vinyl also feels cushioned and soft underfoot, perfect for those little ones playing on the floor! |
If you’re looking to install luxury vinyl tiles by hand, there are a few things to bear in mind:
Glue Down vs Click
Before you purchase your LVT, check which installation system it uses. There are two main types: ‘Glue Down’ and ‘Click’.
• Glue Down is more traditional, ensuring dimensional stability and strength. Each tile is placed in a desired pattern, and set alongside the neighbouring tiles.
• Click installation is quick and hassle free. Each tile fits together seamlessly and securely, locking into place with a single movement.
Floating
Many fitters prefer floating their tiles due to quick and easy installation. Floating does not require you to fix your flooring to a subfloor, however, only click tiles can be fitted this way.
A thin underlay is fitted underneath the tile to encourage cushioning underfoot. Floating helps cut down on labour, whilst ensuring that your boards are comfortable and strong underfoot.
Fixing
Fixing your flooring to the subfloor will ensure a long lifespan and minimal movement. Both Glue Down and Click tiles can be fitted this way, however, it is more popular with the former.
LVT can be installed above most existing hard surfaces, such as concrete, plywood, tiles, and wood boards. Adhesive is applied directly under the tile, setting rigidly into place.
