Helping You to Decide
LVT flooring has soared in popularity in recent years, and here at Image Flooring, we have helped a huge range of property owners choose the perfect Chelmsford LVT flooring for their homes. Could it be right for you? Let’s take a look at some of the amazing benefits that it has to offer, along with some of the ways in which it might not be the best choice for you.
What Is LVT Flooring?
Our LVT flooring in Chelmsford might be unfamiliar to some. LVT is short for Luxury Vinyl Tile, and it is made up of multiple layers of vinyl and other materials. These include a wear layer, a decorative print, and a core layer. It’s a real testament to how far flooring technology has come in recent years, and it has proven to be a hit with our customers in this part of Essex!
Here are some of the advantages that LVT flooring has to offer:
Realistic Appearance
LVT flooring mimics the appearance of materials such as wood, stone, and ceramic. So, if you love the look of those natural materials but want something that can stand up to the demands of a busy modern home with ease, then LVT could be a great choice for you.
Durability
LVT is built to withstand everyday wear and tear, making it a great choice for high-traffic areas and busy households. It resists scratches, scuffs, and even stains exceptionally well, making it a good option for homes with children and pets.
Ideal for Bathrooms & Kitchens
Bathrooms and kitchens are the trickiest spaces in a property to choose flooring for, thanks to the presence of water in these rooms. LVT is water-resistant and won’t swell or warp when exposed to moisture. So, you can transform your kitchen or bathroom with confidence.
Low Maintenance
With LVT flooring, there is no need for sanding, sealing or polishing. Regular sweeping and an occasional mop with a suitable cleaner will keep it looking its best. So, if you want a stylish floor without having to spend lots of time and money on its upkeep, it could be perfect.
What You Need to Remember
While LVT has plenty of strengths, you should bear some things in mind when deciding whether it’s the best fit for your home. Although LVT is designed to look like natural materials, it isn’t the real thing. If you are looking for a floor that will develop wear and character over time, then wood flooring might be better.
It’s also important to remember that while LVT is very durable, it isn’t indestructible! Sharp objects or heavy furniture dragged across the floor can leave marks, so you will need to use furniture pads and take care during moves.
