Is luxury vinyl flooring durable?
Are you searching for a durable floor that can stand up to spills, stains, scuffs, scratches and still look fabulous? Onondaga Flooring can help you in that search.
Durability
Most luxury vinyl flooring comes with 25 and 30-year warranties. It has been an excellent choice for bathrooms and kitchens for decades. It is both rugged and waterproof so that it can go into any room in your home.
Characteristics
Luxury vinyl flooring comes in planks and tiles. Luxury vinyl plank is known as LVP, and luxury vinyl tiles are known as LVT. Both are attractive, durable, and easy to maintain. Usually, a light sweeping and a light mopping are all that's needed to keep them clean. LVP and LVT cores come in 8-millimeter thickness. But if you want a longer-lasting floor, ask for 20-millimeter thickness, which adds to the floor's lifespan. Vinyl flooring is created in layers, and the top layer is a thick wear layer that prevents the design layer from getting scratches and scuff marks.
Waterproof
Vinyl is waterproof because of its source material, PVC. PVC is a standard construction material that is used everywhere in construction. It is naturally water repellent. So its very nature is a guarantee against water damage of any type.
Appearance
Thanks to the imaging technology of today, the imaging layer of luxury vinyl, also known as the design layer, can mimic anything. With LVP, it can mimic any wood look, from cherry to walnut, to oak, to hickory. With LVT, it can mimic ceramic, stone, or brick. But, of course, LVT can mimic wood as well. So you have plenty of options to choose from when it comes to thinking about what you want your floors to look like.
