Benefits of Rigid Core Vinyl Flooring

Luxury rigid vinyl flooring is quickly becoming one of the most popular trends in home flooring.

· Waterproof: One of the biggest benefits of choosing Luxury Vinyl flooring is that it has a completely waterproof core. Unlike hardwood, it can be installed in areas of the home such as laundry rooms, bathrooms, basements, and kitchens. The waterproof feature also makes this board more stable in environments where moisture and temperature can fluctuate.

· Easy installation: Many homeowners appreciate that Luxury Vinyl floors are easy to install. They can be placed on top of many different types of subfloors or existing flooring. Most designs simply click into place, eliminating the need for messy and complicated glues.

· Affordability: While it is more expensive than standard vinyl flooring, Luxury Vinyl floors are generally less expensive that other types of luxury flooring, such as hardwood and stone. In addition, homeowners can often install the floors without professional assistance, so DIY installation of Luxury Vinyl flooring can save even more money on this upgrade.

· Style: Luxury Vinyl flooring is like standard vinyl in that it is available in a wide range of colors and patterns. Some of the Luxury Vinyl flooring styles are designed to look like hardwood, tile, or other types of flooring. The wide range of options is preferable for those who want to be able to customize the look of their home.

· Comfort: The thick, stable bottom layers of each plank make Luxury Vinyl flooring more cushioned than other types of flooring. The thicker the plank you choose, the more comfortable it will feel underfoot. These dense layers also contribute to a quieter sound when walking on Luxury Vinyl floors; they usually do not have a hollow or thin sound like standard vinyl often does.

· Easy maintenance: Luxury rigid vinyl flooring is very durable. Because it is incredibly dense, it’s resistant to impacts, stains, scratches, and wear and tear. This flooring style is a great choice for busy households because in addition to holding up well, it is easy to keep clean. Maintenance involves only regular vacuuming or sweeping and occasional mopping. Over time, this type of flooring will resist fading, peeling, and cupping, and it can withstand being directly exposed to sunlight.
