The Perks of Planks: Luxury Vinyl Flooring

Do you love the look of hardwood flooring, but hate the heavy maintenance and large price tag? Luxury vinyl plank has recently become available to the average consumer, meaning that everyone in America can enjoy the same benefits that commercial designers have been using for years.


What is Luxury Vinyl Plank?
These planks are a type of manufactured flooring that look and feel like true hardwood. They satisfy green building initiatives and don’t deplete quarries or harm forests. You can find most planks in incredibly realistic wooden and stone textures and colors, thanks to the photogravure process. This method results in tiny “wood grain” or “rock” surfaces that are hard to distinguish from the real thing. In fact, most people, even contractors, can’t see a difference.

The Benefits of Choosing Vinyl

Aside from its incredible realism, luxury vinyl plank provides a host of other fantastic benefits, such as:

• Huge savings. This type of flooring is just a fraction of the price of real stone or hardwood.
• Impressive safety. Vinyl flooring meets or exceeds requirements for slip resistance, flammability, and more.
• Water resistance. Vinyl is naturally water resistant, and as long as the installer puts the flooring in properly on a level surface, you don’t have to worry about spills.
