Find the perfect luxury vinyl flooring for your space

Should you choose LVT or LVP flooring?

Luxury vinyl is available in two primary formats: luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and luxury vinyl plank (LVP).

LVP flooring is manufactured to resemble hardwood. Its long planks feature realistic wood grain and texture, making it ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and open floor plans.

LVT flooring recreates the appearance of ceramic, porcelain, marble, slate, and other stone surfaces. It delivers the elegance of tile while providing a warmer, quieter, and more forgiving surface underfoot.

Both offer the same dependable performance. The right choice comes down to the style you want to create.

What's the difference between SPC and WPC?

Luxury vinyl flooring is available with two popular core constructions.

SPC (Stone Plastic Composite) features a rigid stone-based core that offers outstanding dent resistance and dimensional stability. It's an excellent choice for busy households, high-traffic areas, and commercial applications.

WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) includes a foamed core that creates a softer, more comfortable feel underfoot while helping reduce sound transmission. It's a popular option for bedrooms, family rooms, and other living spaces.

Both constructions offer impressive durability and moisture resistance. We'll help you compare the advantages of each so you can choose the best option for your home.

Which luxury vinyl flooring color is right for your home?

Luxury vinyl flooring comes in a wide variety of colors and realistic visuals.

Light oak, maple, and blonde tones brighten smaller rooms and create an open feel. Medium brown floors provide a timeless look that complements nearly any decorating style, while darker colors such as walnut or espresso create contrast and elegance.

If you're shopping for LVT flooring, you'll also find authentic concrete, slate, marble, and natural stone looks.

Neutral colors remain the most versatile, while darker or more distinctive tones can create a dramatic focal point.

How do the width and thickness of luxury vinyl affect performance?

Luxury vinyl flooring is available in multiple plank widths and overall thicknesses.

Wide planks create a clean, contemporary appearance with fewer seams, while narrower planks often suit traditional interiors.

Thickness influences comfort, stability, and durability. Many premium products also feature thicker wear layers that provide greater protection against scratches, scuffs, and everyday wear.

Rather than focusing on a single specification, it's important to evaluate the product as a whole.

Our flooring specialists can help you compare options based on your needs.

What luxury vinyl flooring installation method is best?

Luxury vinyl flooring offers several installation methods: click-lock, glue-down, and loose-lay.

Click-lock floating floors are popular because they install efficiently while creating a secure connection between planks.

Glue-down products provide exceptional stability and are often recommended for commercial settings or areas with heavy traffic.

Loose-lay flooring relies on its weight and friction to stay in place while allowing individual planks or tiles to be replaced if necessary.

How do you clean and maintain luxury vinyl flooring?

Luxury vinyl is one of the easiest flooring options to maintain.

Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and grit. Damp mop using a manufacturer-approved cleaner, wipe up spills promptly, and place mats near entryways to reduce tracked-in debris. Felt pads beneath furniture help protect the surface from scratches.

Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, and excessive water. With simple routine care, your luxury vinyl flooring will continue looking beautiful for years.
