Frequently Asked Questions About LVT Flooring

LVT flooring offers several advantages over traditional flooring options, including superior durability, water resistance, and easy maintenance. It also provides a realistic wood or tile look at a lower cost.

LVT flooring is highly durable and scratch-resistant due to its top layer of clear vinyl or melamine. However, it's not completely scratch-proof, so care should be taken to avoid dragging heavy furniture across the surface.

The recommended installation method for LVT flooring is the floating floor method, where the planks or tiles click together and "float" over an underlayment without being nailed or glued down.

LVT flooring is an excellent choice for high-moisture areas like bathrooms and laundry rooms because it is 100% waterproof and resistant to mold and mildew. However, standing water should still be avoided.

LVT flooring may be preferable to other vinyl or laminate options because it provides a more authentic wood or tile look and feel, has superior durability and waterproof properties, and can be installed with the floating floor method.

LVT floors are very easy to clean and maintain on a daily basis. Simply sweep or vacuum regularly, and occasionally damp mop with a manufacturer-approved cleaning solution. No waxing or special treatments are required.
