If you are looking to replace the flooring in your home, and are searching for a durable, long-lasting type of flooring then you might want to consider LVT flooring. LVT or luxury vinyl tile is a type of flooring that is growing rapidly in popularity due to its durability, water resistance, and the luxury it provides homeowners with. Many of us still don’t know much about LVT, and we often get asked lots of questions regarding this type of flooring.

LJV Carpets & Flooring are a leading floor installation company covering Warrington, Wigan, Leigh and the surrounding areas – providing high-quality flooring, at unbeatable prices.

What Material is LVT Made From?
It is primarily made from a synthetic material called PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride Resin), which is a type of plastic. LVT is designed to replicate hard surfacing flooring materials, such as hardwood, laminate and stone but with many additional practical benefits.
-
Is LVT Suitable for all Rooms?
Yes, it is suitable for any room in your home. As it is waterproof, you don’t have to worry about splashes or water damaging your flooring. It can be installed in your kitchen and bathroom without any issues. You can also install LVT in any other room in your home including living rooms, bedrooms, offices and hallways and corridors.
-
Would you Recommend LVT for a Family Home?
LVT is a great choice of flooring for family homes, providing you with a durable, practical and hard wearing solution. It is super easy to clean, making it ideal for foot traffic and if you encounter any spillages. It is also stain resistant, and you can clean any dirt or mess with one simple wipe. This makes it an excellent choice of flooring for families, especially those with small children and pets.
-
Can LVT Become Damaged?
Damage is possible with any type of flooring, but there are certain types of flooring which are more susceptible to damage. LVT does not get damaged easily and is very hard to scratch, break, or dent. It is extremely durable for heavy furniture and foot traffic. If it does damage, it can be easily fixed affordably. It is fitted using separate panels / tiles, meaning if a section gets damaged then that solo piece can be removed and replaced quickly and at a low cost.
-
How Long Do LVT Floors Last?
LVT is a very long-lasting form of flooring and is built to withstand the test of time. It has an average lifespan of 25 to 30 years, but can last you much longer if it is high-quality, installed correctly, and cared and maintained for properly. It is also affordable, meaning that if you want to change the style you have in a room as styles and trends change, you can do so affordably.
