Can I get wood look floors with luxury vinyl?

Thursday, November 4, 2021 1:31 PM

Yes, and wood-look floors are now trending. If a stone or ceramic tile is more to your taste, you can also get these echoes, all with affordability, 100% waterproof capability, durability, and countless other functional benefits.

Style enough for any room!

This product offers nature-inspired true-to-life images created with high-definition photography with knots, swirls, grains, veining variations, and brilliant colors and patterns in full display. Micro beveling and embossing add depth, dimension, and textured looks, such as wire-brushed, hand scraped, weathered, and distressed.

To add to the realism, it can be cut into long planks, luxury vinyl plank or LVP, or square, tile-sized pieces that can be used with or without grout, called luxury vinyl tile or LVT. Since it follows all the trends you can get, among others, gray wood or barn door weathered floors; marble, slate, granite, travertine, terrazzo or quartz surfaces, or colorful geometric, chevron, herringbone, or encaustic-style tile patterns.

Ultra durability

This vinyl is multi-layered with a top, transparent, melamine sheet that guards the floor against scratches, scuffs and keeps spills at the top waiting to be wiped off. Actual luxury vinyl flooring is five times thicker than the original product, and it's waterproof from bottom to top, meaning that it can be submerged or spilled on without consequence. At the very top is a clear urethane coating that adds both extra shine and protection.

It's also low maintenance, requiring only a regular sweeping and periodic mopping with a manufacturer-approved cleaner. Avoid waxy, shine-promoting cleaners as they damage the finish and dull the floor. Installation is also fast and easy, especially when it's a floating floor where the pieces click, mat, and hover over the subfloor without nails or glue.
