Luxury Vinyl Flooring in Ft. Pembroke Pines, FL

What are Luxury Vinyl Tile & Luxury Vinyl Plank Flooring?

While they may look different on the surface, luxury vinyl tile (LVT) & luxury vinyl plank (LVP) are each made from the same materials. Both are highly durable & versatile flooring options that can be used in just about any room in your home.

LVT is designed to mimic the look and feel of ceramic tile flooring or natural stone materials. LVP, on the other hand, is usually designed to mimic the appearance and texture of natural hardwood flooring. Both are actually made entirely from synthetic materials which are fused together into several layers. These layers include:

• A waterproof backing layer
• A solid core layer that provides strength & flexibility
• A photorealistic image layer of a tile look or wood look
• A transparent surface wear layer that resists most common types of damage

Designing with Luxury Vinyl Flooring

Because of the vast range of different materials they’re designed to mimic, luxury vinyl is suited to just about any design. You’ll find styles in wood looks and tile looks. Colors can include brown, grey, beige, and a variety of other natural tones.

Install luxury vinyl floors in your living areas and hallways for a stylish appearance that will also stand up to the wear and tear that comes with heavy foot traffic. Paired with the right area rugs, vinyl makes for a very easy surface to keep clean.

Meanwhile, vinyl’s waterproof capabilities are well suited to kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, mudrooms & finished basements. Bring the look of hardwood to these spaces without worrying about moisture damage.
