Vinyl flooring looks great in every room

Vinyl flooring is often chosen for kitchens and bathrooms as well as entryways and basements because it is not damaged by moisture or water. It's a practical child-and pet-friendly floor covering that can be placed anywhere in the home. Realistic designs that mimic natural materials bring an air of sophistication to dining, family, and living rooms. You can find a wide variety of vinyl flooring for any room at SJ FloorSolutions LLC. As a flooring retailer that has been offering vinyl in Carrollton, Texas, for decades, we understand your needs.

Thin and flexible standard vinyl comes in rolls that are cut to size for placement in a room. This sheet is glued to the floor, sometimes only around the perimeter of the room. 6-to 18-inch square tiles are also available for peel-and-stick or glue-down installation. The subfloor must be perfect when using peel-and-stick tiles. Otherwise, future problems are likely. This flooring holds up well to direct sunlight, but it does not tolerate high heat. Therefore, it should not be placed beneath a water heater or near a furnace. Expect standard vinyl to last about 10 years, although the best brands can have a life expectancy of about 15 years.

Multi-ply luxury vinyl planks and tiles are thicker and more rigid than sheet vinyl. Typically, the flooring has 4 layers: backing, core, design, and wear. Clear wear layers range from 2 to 8 mm or more in thickness. Thicker is better since the wear layer protects the design layer, and therefore, determines the durability of the floor. Wood, stone, and ceramic designs are more realistic than those on thinner standard vinyl since advanced printing technology can take advantage of tile and plank thickness to create deep embossing. Planks or tiles connect to float over the subfloor. Waterproof luxury vinyl flooring is ideal for basements that are prone to flooding since it will not warp or buckle even after prolonged exposure to water.
