I try not to tell people that LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tile) flooring is actually a vinyl product until I have been able to tell them about the wide range of amazing attributes that have allowed it to become a very popular flooring choice. Otherwise, people\u00a0immediately become close-minded\u00a0about the product without wanting to hear additional details.\n\nLVT most commonly looks like hardwoods; however, you can also choose LVT that mimics the look of porcelain, travertine, slate, stained concrete &#8211; pretty much any style you would want for your new floor.\u00a0 Instead of one big sheet, the product will come in whatever form that the LVT is imitating.\u00a0\u00a0&#8220;Hardwood&#8221; LVT will be shaped in individual planks to closely match the\u00a0look of hardwoods.\u00a0 When mimicking tile, it will be shaped in squares or rectangles, and it even has a line you would install to mimic the grout!\u00a0 These individual pieces will be glued down using pressure-sensitive glue.\u00a0 There are even some thicker, heavier styles of LVT with a gripping mechanism on the bottom, which allows it to be installed by merely placing them on the floor.\n\nLuxury Vinyl Tile is most commonly used as the flooring of choice in the basement.\u00a0 LVT is a great choice here because it is virtually waterproof so it can withstand the water from an outside pool, hot tub, or even a flood.\u00a0 LVT is virtually indestructible, so it can withhold high traffic (often installed in Wal-Mart), kids playing around, get-together&#8217;s, etc.\u00a0 I installed it for a customer who called me two days later, thankful because she had dropped a large glass container full of lemonade that shattered across the floor. \u00a0She winced because she was afraid she had damaged her new floors,\u00a0only to find there\u00a0wasn&#8217;t a single mark.\n\nFrom a maintenance perspective, LVT is a great choice because it can be cleaned with anything, never needs to be refinished, resealed, or re-grouted, and should you damage a piece\/plank, it can easily be replaced.\u00a0 It is softer than the flooring types it mimics and also is better at\u00a0muffling sound.\u00a0 As far as pricing goes, LVT starts off at a very affordable rate.\u00a0 However,\u00a0the more indistinguishable you want it to be, the higher the price.\u00a0 The higher end wide plank hardwood looks may end up\u00a0being about the same price as the real thing, but will end up saving you money in the future on repairs and maintenance.\u00a0 No matter what you envision for your home, there will an LVT product out there that will meet your design and budget needs!","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What comes to your mind when you hear the word &#8220;vinyl&#8221;?\u00a0 For most people, they think of those huge rolls of cheap plastic flooring sold at the big box DIY stores.
