Vinyl Flooring Is A Great Choice For Your Home
Typically, domestic vinyl will be between 2.5mm and 4.00mm thick (a handful are thicker or thinner) with a protective wearlayer which will vary between 0.20mm and 0.40mm. In simple terms, the thickness determines the ‘sponginess’ and the wearlayer determines how long it is likely to last.
It is the wear layer, more than the thickness, that separates the better quality from the poorer quality.
Having said that of course, if you are fitting it into a bathroom then you wouldn’t really consider that a heavy wear area, so choose the design that you like best. In a busy family kitchen/dining area then you might want to consider something a little heavier.
Vinyl needs to be fitted onto a smooth, dry and level floor. The preparation depends to a large extent at what you want from the floor. Ideally, floorboards should have plywood fitted and concrete floors ought to be screeded before fitting.
A nicely prepared floor will look the part and perform better in the long run.
Each manufacturer will have their own guidelines over glueing vinyl down. Generally, areas over 12 square metres ought to be fully glued down, but ask us if you are unsure.
We have vinyl flooring for all budgets, from affordable vinyl to more expensive vinyl for a luxury finish. With such a wide range of colour and pattern options available, vinyl flooring is a fantastic choice for your home.
