Luxury vinyl flooring with style that lasts

What is the difference between LVP and LVT flooring?

When shopping for luxury vinyl, you will frequently see two terms: LVT and LVP flooring.

Luxury vinyl plank flooring comes in long planks that typically mimic hardwood. Advanced printing and texturing can recreate grain patterns, knots, color variations, and other natural details. You can enjoy the warmth of a wood-inspired look with easier maintenance.

Luxury vinyl tile comes in tile formats and often recreates ceramic, porcelain, or natural stone.

Depending on the design, LVT flooring can mimic marble, slate, travertine, and other materials.

Both offer plenty of design freedom. Your choice comes down to the look and performance you want for your space.

What is the difference between WPC and SPC luxury vinyl flooring?

The core is another important feature to consider.

WPC stands for wood plastic or wood polymer composite. WPC luxury vinyl typically has a thicker, slightly softer construction that can provide added comfort underfoot and help absorb sound. It works well in living spaces where comfort is a priority.

SPC stands for stone plastic or stone polymer composite. Its dense, rigid core provides excellent stability and resistance to dents, making it a strong option for active households and high-traffic rooms.

Neither is automatically better. Consider where the floor will go and how the room is used. Our flooring experts can help you compare available options.

What luxury vinyl flooring colors are available?

Luxury vinyl flooring offers plenty of choices. For something bright and airy, consider pale oak, blonde, beige, or natural wood tones. These shades can make smaller rooms feel more open and pair beautifully with relaxed coastal interiors.

Medium browns provide a timeless look, while walnut, espresso, and other dark shades add depth and contrast. Gray and greige are versatile choices for contemporary spaces.

Stone-inspired luxury vinyl flooring is also available in shades such as cream, white, charcoal, and taupe. Consider your cabinetry, walls, furniture, and natural light before choosing. Our interior design consultants can help you coordinate your flooring with the rest of your home.

How is luxury vinyl flooring installed?

Installation depends on the product and subfloor. Two common methods are click-lock and glue-down installation.

Click-lock planks or tiles connect along their edges to create a floating floor. Glue-down luxury vinyl is secured directly to a properly prepared subfloor and can provide excellent stability, especially in busy areas.

Proper subfloor preparation matters with either method. The surface should be clean, dry, level, and suitable for your chosen flooring. Professional installation helps ensure your new floor looks polished and performs as intended.

How do you clean and maintain luxury vinyl flooring?

One of luxury vinyl's biggest advantages is easy maintenance. Sweep, dust mop, or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and grit that could scratch the surface.

Clean spills promptly and use a manufacturer-approved vinyl flooring cleaner when deeper cleaning is needed. Avoid abrasive scrubbers, harsh chemicals, waxes, and steam mops unless specifically approved by the manufacturer. Place mats near entrances to catch dirt and protective pads beneath furniture legs to help prevent scratches.
