What’s the lifespan of luxury vinyl flooring?


Luxury vinyl (LVF) can last upwards of 20 years. Warranties will vary slightly depending on the manufacturer, so check yours.

Known for durability

Luxury vinyl plank and tile are tough enough to withstand wear from kids, pets, and heavy foot traffic. In addition, this product is five times thicker than the original one.

They are also layered, with the top being a transparent, robust, melamine layer. It protects the floor from scratch, scuffs, and dents and keeps spills from absorbing.

On top of that is the clear urethane finish. That coating adds extra strength and shine.

Waterproof from bottom to top

That means luxury vinyl tile or plank can be spilled on or submerged without damaging the floor. They are made from entirely waterproof materials, so the capability is built-in.

Other benefits include:

  1. Style: Whether LVP or the tile-sized squares, the images are taken digitally to be clear and vibrant. Micro beveling and embossing add depth, dimension, and textured looks.
  2. Affordability and realism: Sometimes, even the flooring experts can't distinguish between genuine materials. You'll know when you pay because you won't see nearly the exact cost.
  3. Low maintenance: Whether LVT or plank, it just needs regular sweeping and periodic mopping with a manufacturer-approved cleaner.
  4. Please avoid abrasive and waxy shine-promoting cleaners. They can damage the finish and dull the floors.

  5. Fast installation. Luxury vinyl can either be glued or installed to float.
