Due to its unique features, vinyl flooring has been proven to be one of the most popular materials out of ceramic tile, laminate flooring, engineered wood, and even plank wood. Vinyl flooring has been improving and upgrading itself over the years to the point where now it is without a doubt the best option to go with.
You have probably heard about Vinyl flooring’s durability or resilience, but that is only the tip of the iceberg, Vinyl flooring is one of the best options out there and here is why:
One of the many perks of some Vinyl flooring is that some of them come with a fun design, and that is like hitting two birds with one stone because while your vinyl flooring is chic, it also has a surface barrier that protects it from any kind of spills or stains.
Speaking of stains, vinyl flooring is the ideal flooring for your family that includes your four-legged friends too. Vinyl flooring could not be more perfect for a full family house of kids and pets, since there is plenty of room for mishaps, spills, glass shattering, etc. It has a very high durability while sustaining it low maintenance trait, meaning you won’t have to scrub it too hard to get a stain out or spend a lot of time cleaning it either. Another great factor about vinyl flooring is that it is not easily scuffed; so even while cleaning it you don’t have to worry about disfiguring its look, since it will maintain its high quality look.
Usually families tend to be on a tight budget, especially if they are moving into a new house. The vinyl flooring industry understands and is well aware of that factor, which is why vinyl flooring is very affordable and not as expensive as other materials.
Vinyl flooring is both comfortable for the eyes and your feet! Vinyl floorings come in different colors and designs, so the possibilities are almost endless. Your flooring could be anything from dark rich brown, light soft brown to real life looking wood vinyl floorings, colorful vinyl tiles, and so much more. There are plenty of different designs that could be found in the Innovation range at Online Flooring Store. Other than the design factor, it also has a great feel to it under your feet; vinyl flooring doesn’t get cold in the winter as much as ceramic tile floors for instance. They are also much softer than wood or ceramic floors, since they are supported by a padded under layer that makes them comfortable to walk on even if you are barefoot.
Another great factor about vinyl flooring or vinyl tiles is that it is so easy to install. You absolutely don’t need a professional help when installing it, so in a way it could be a fun family project in the new house and you would be saving money as well!
One of the many perks of vinyl flooring is its versatility and flexibility; it could easily be made into a wide range of different hues, tones and patterns. Choosing the right vinyl flooring for your house could be stressful or puzzling, since there are a lot of options to go with. Fortunately, you only have two options when picking vinyl flooring either inlaid or printed. Inlaid vinyl has this pattern where color granules are rooted into the vinyl sheet, which provides the illusion of having a deeper look while providing many shades of colors.
Printed vinyl is more popular than inlaid vinyl, since it comes in many forms and different designs and colors. It can take on many shapes like marble flooring, hardwood, or other fun designs; it also maintains a high quality look to it over the years. Vinyl flooring could also be made into sheets, tiles or planks. Sheets are more water resistant, so you can install it in the bathroom or kitchen or any other place that will be exposed to frequent water spilling. Tiles give a classier look, so they would look great in a living room or a bedroom. Planks are more of an acquired taste, so if you are into hardwood looking floor, then planks are the right vinyl flooring for you.
There is more to vinyl flooring than just patterns and designs; there is also the wear layer, which is considered to be one of the most important factor to any vinyl flooring, helps in finishing the flooring and strengthening it for use. There are three types of finishes; grade 1,2 and 3. Grade 1 is known to be the thickest sealant layer that is available for residential use. Grade 2 is the second thickest sealant layer and is considered to be best with living rooms. Grade 3 is the lightest out of all.
If not all, most vinyl floorings are suitable and can sustain underfloor heating; you can control the floor’s temperature by a thermostat, but you should have a heat loss calculation with you to guarantee that the under-floor heating system meets the requirements of the room that it will be installed in. Needless to say, a certified electrician needs to be there to ensure that the underfloor heating system is placed perfectly, completely safe to use, and to fit the thermostats and connect the required electrical connections.
In case your heated vinyl flooring is exposed to water, you need to have both a plumber and an electrician to provide the safest connections. Vinyl flooring could be installed as either a glued floor finish or as a floating floor. If it is glued then you should have an under tile heater instead of foil heater, and if it is floating then go for insulated underlay and dual overlay, but do not attempt to expose it to any sort of liquid.
Vinyl floorings come with a wide variety of designs, colors, patterns, finishes, styles, etc. Take advantage of this wide range to see what is best fit with your furniture; the beauty of vinyl flooring is that it provides anything from a classy, elegant look to a funky, colorful look! Other than all the different designs and patterns, vinyl flooring is also durable, sustainable, has low maintenance, affordable, scratch resistant, and is easy to install by yourself or with your family!
